camera problems & blocks on some buttons

Post by Koolmov »

I just installed a fresh download of Links 2003 from the Links corner site to my HP Envy 360 with a Ryzen AMD proscessor & Amd Raedon video card running Win 10. The game loads, but the only camera that works in the Main cam. I tried loading other cameras (smart, top, etc) but they disappear and dont display.

I also have missing squares on various buttons for displays, and continue. None of the buttons are running consistently.

Following some of the posts on this site, I tried running Links in Vista compatibly mode, but it didn't help. Same issues.

Any suggestions or ideas on what to try to straighten this problem out would be greatly appreciated. This is my all time favorite simulation, and since I have been disabled it's my only chance to play golf.

thanks in advance to any good Samaritan.

Run Links in compatibility mode for windows XP - service pack 2.

Run Links as an Administrator!

Run the above 2 patches - especially the nVidia one! (no matter what video card you have)

I installed the 1.07 patch, the Niivida parch, ran in the compatability mode in XP sp2 mode as an administrator but no luck.

I Still can't get any camera views except the main. Fewer blocks on buttons, but not all were eliminated. Did get the wide screen mode that was previously missing.

Anyone have any other fixes?
