Hello folks.

I am currently trying to fix a couple things in this awful port. That is: the 30 fps limiter and the forcing of nonstandard refresh rates on some resolutions in full screen.

Here is the patched exe that removes the fps limiter: http://www.mediafire.com/download/5adl8 ... 0r/COI.zip

Here is how to force your monitor's refresh rate in DirectX games:

Open the Registry Editor
Vista and newer: open the Start screen/Start menu, type regedit, press Enter.
Windows XP: press Windows+R, type regedit, press Enter.
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DirectDraw
Create DWORD entry "ForceRefreshRate" and change its DECIMAL value to the refresh rate of your monitor.
64-bit users will need to do this at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\DirectDraw as well.
This will force DirectX games to run in your monitor's refresh rate.

Cheers!

I'm interested in playing this in surround also - I can't find a config file :/

Just to understand - you are only adjusting the refresh rate and unlocking it? You make any headway on multi-monitor?
