When I run Locomotion using the GoGLauncher, it seems to help prevent color palette corruption when you Alt+Tab out of it. One side effect of this... implementation, most of my other apps that I have running in the background freeze, including the task bar. Is there any way to fix this problem? Or, am I the only one with it?

Of course, I can just run Locomotion on its own. But, again, when I Alt+Tab out.. and go back into the game, the color palette corrupts. Meaning... the only way to really play this game is running it without anything else going. And to me.,, that is VERY non-ideal.

I am running Windows 7 Home 64bit.

Can you try running it directly, I mean not via GOG launcher, but by double clicking the Loco.exe file in game directory?

In my second paragraph, I did mention that. Running the EXE itself fixes the background apps freezing problem. But the color palette corruption problem happens. I want to be able to play the game without my apps freezing and still have normal game colors.

Oh, sorry, No idea how I missed it. :D

I'm afraid, the only solution is to run the game in a virtual machine, like VirtualBox or VMware.

or you can stop alt-tabbing and that way you don't have any problem, including running background applications.
