How to 100% FIX + TWEAK Manhunt on Windows 10.
How to 100% FIX + TWEAK Manhunt on Windows 10.
Due to this game being very old and lacking support for operating systems newer than Vista, this game requires quite a hefty amount of patching to get working. Windows 10 being the worst culprit, the game run likes absolute s h 1 t on Windows 10.

Here's how you can fix it completely.

FIX:

There's multiple steps required to get this fixed, but don't worry it really isn't all that difficult and you should hopefully have the game running in no time :)

1. Download this patch (Click Me) [dl.dropboxusercontent.com]
*Downloading this patch fixes level doors being shut, such as the gate in Born Again.

2. Download NVidia Inspector (assuming your graphics card is NVidia, if not find another suitable likewise application.) (Click Me) [www.guru3d.com]

2a. Open NVidia Inspector look to the right of your GPU (graphics card) driver's name, click on the button. http://i.imgur.com/UrNp7Aj.png

2b. A big list of settings should pop up, go up to the search bar at the top left and type "Manhunt", this will allow you to specify settings for the game. http://i.imgur.com/OTWNI6I.png

Force vsync to ON, cap game at 60fps in the frame limiter section :) and force triple buffering.

*Capping the game to 60fps fixes the unpredictable and shoddy bugged AI which was present beforehand.

OPTIONAL TWEAKS:
1. Download AGThirteen's Widescreen Patch (for users using widescreen displays.)
(Click Me) [github.com]

Simple install, drag and drop files into your Manhunt directory.

Use Rivatuner, add the game and set the frame limit at 60fps. Example here http://i.imgur.com/FS8I8Kh.jpg

No need for any patches, rename testapp.exe to manhunt.exe, remove the old .exe first.

You could use something like Rivatuner, but sticking this file into your game's main folder will also work:

I am late I see an most of the link to these patches no longer excist however... I have tried the solutions I have found here so far, THO BEFORE I started fiddeling with everything my game loaded fine and kinda seemed to be running ok on my windows 10, however I ran into the problem with the gate not opening after finishing the second dude, so I started searching here and found all these tips and tricks which seems to have made my game go bye bye all togheter and now after approaching those steps up to that second guy before the gate is "manhunt.exe has encountered a problem and will be closed" with no other error code that I can see. Now without having to download a 100 more patch that makes it ever harder for me to get it to run properly... is there any GOOD solution to this???

I can confirm this method works. 60FPS cap, triple buffering on, vsync on. Windows 10 64 bit, GTX 1070.
