Some problems

[Shred N Slash]

Heya, people. Recently decided to get GTA 2, but there's some problems I'm facing.

 

1. Large frame drops in fullscreen mode - Playing in fullscreen makes the game run in 5-8fps. Playing in windowed mode, however, lets me run the game at capped 30fps. I already edited max_frame_rate in regedit.
2. Weird menu - My menu is weird. It's a small box with weird aspect ratio at the top of the screen with a black bar somewhere in the middle. Has some contrast issues as well.
3. No intro movie - I assume an intro movie is supposed to play upon the game's launch? It just skips straight to the menu for me.
4. Crash whenever I get into a vehicle - Game crashes whenever I get into a vehicle too. What a bummer 

 

I've got Widescreen Fix installed and my game is from gtamp.com, since I couldn't run the classic from Rockstar's website. Can anyone suggest any fixes, at least for points 1 and 4? Thanks in advance.

AMD cpu?

 

for weid menu problem: right click on .exe, properties, compatibility, "disable display scaling on high DPI settings"

[Shred N Slash]

Nope, Intel.

 

Ticking the 'Disable display scaling on high DPI settings' box didn't help.

Trial and error with the compatibility modes... Although, to be honest, they have almost never worked for me, for any problem.

 

Which operating system? Windows 10?

Windows 8.1 (yuck, I know.)

Compatibility Modes don't help.
