I've created a new sticky with this info in the 'Playing Links' section.
The registry edit is the only solution. It is not difficult. Read my instructions below. I made them very clear. Just slowly follow each step. You will find it is quite easy and you won't harm your PC:
No. Never change the graphics settings in the game itself. This is the part of Links that doesn't work properly with modern monitors because the game was never designed for them. This is why we change things in the registry. If you try and change resolution in the game itself, it will mess things up again and you will need to go back to the registry to fix it.
Sky and Dynamic Camera settings are totally personal preference. Try anything you like, you can't mess anything up.nigelpenn wrote: ↑May 19th, 2020, 5:51 am Also do I enable Sky and what choice do you recommend and also Dynamic Camera enabled is unticked showing smart view. Should this be changed. I do not want to play around with the settings until you advise for fear of losing what I now have, to play Links 2003 again.
Everyone should get to enjoy this great game, happy to help.
I seem to remember years ago reading posts from people having this texture issue. Normally it would be a case of a designer using incorrectly sized textures which is why I paid attention to it, but in this case it only seemed to affect people using certain Intel integrated graphics chips. I don't think a solution was found at that time. Hopefully it has since been solved and someone will post here with the answer soon. Setting a 32 bit resolution might help by editing the registry?dlynch67 wrote: ↑July 28th, 2020, 7:35 am After playing a hole, the box comes up that indicates something about display mode and "only power of two textures". It also references 1024 x 1024 which I gather is related to the video resolution. Also, the sky has the Links 2003 labelling instead of clouds or blue sky. Sometimes, the sky has turned pitch black and remains.
