Hi, i have a problem with the game. I own a retail copy of the game without the Battle out of Hell Expansion, so i decided to pick up the Black Edition on GOG the other day. Turns out the game freezes and stutters constanly, very unusual considering my system specs and the game's age. V-sync is not forced on. Such an issue was not present in the retail version w/o Battle out of Hell.

CPU: AMD FX-8320 3,5ghz
GPU: (Asus) NVIDIA GTX 750Ti 2GB GDDR5
RAM: Kingston 8GB DDR3 1600mhz
OS: Windows 7 64-bit SP1

I did look on Pcgamingwiki, strangely i missed this patch. I'll try installing it and then i'll let you know.

If that doesn't work try forcing vsync.

Hi there,

if solutions above will not work, you can try installing Powermad, it fixes quite a large number of bugs....
