  2. Some tips if your game isn’t starting (or network not working)

    – The game works on Windows 10 when running in Windows XP service pack 2 or 3. To change this right-click on “Riskll.exe” -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Change the Compatibility Mode. Disabling fullscreen optimizations doesn’t hurt.

    – The game resolution is 640×480 and no modern computer has this anymore. Often times windows 10 resolution settings can mess up the loading of the game. To edit display settings (resolution) right-click on your Desktop -> Display Settings. Set the scale to 100% and the display resolution to the recommended. If it still not working play around with combinations

    – Once the game loads you cannot tab out, minimize, or do anything that might change the screen resolution off the game’s default. Going back into the game after hitting the windows key, for example, will ruin the graphics

    – For multiplayer you need to turn off your firewall. Whether you use windows security or a custom one, it blocks connections in Riskll. As well, the first time you go to network/multiplayer you will need tab out “ALT+TAB” and there should be a pop-up with RISKll asking for access to your network. Allow it access, restart the game, and local games should appear in the list

    – For non-LAN games, you will need to port forward. I am not sure of the port Riskll runs on and have not tried this yet. If you are unsure what port forwarding is then this process is too complicated.
