  • Not so long ago, I attempted to do a stream of a childhood favourite squad shooter on the original Xbox called Conflict: Desert Storm! I bought this copy off Steam & I was not prepared for what I was yet to experience...
    In this video I showcase all of the bugs & glitches I encountered from a steady 5 hour stream. Rest assured, a full playthrough will be coming to the channel very soon as I've found working ROMs for all of the Conflict games (except for Spec Ops, we don't talk about that...)
    Thank you for everyone who tuned in as well as all of your support for the channel! Don't forget to check out my Twitch channel linked below to get amongst the live action \m/

    You simply have to limit the framerate to 60 or 75 FPS and the game will behave correctly. You can use Riva Tuner for example

    very nice to still see videos about Conflict games even 20 years after their releases. I have the same bugs in my Steam edition but thanks to my bros in the comments I'll check the solutions to fix that
    edit : ​ well the solution is simply dumb : there's no more falling bugs on the Steam version if you limit your PC on 30 or 60 fps not more with RivaTuner. Although I have besides Steam version another copy of the game (originally from the game's PC disk) and in this version I never had a single falling bug whatever the number of fps is. So yes you can remove the "DON'T BUY THIS ON STEAM!" title now that we know the problem and the solution to the falling bus lol. Because paying less than 1$ for this game during Steam discounts is still worthy imo

    Apparently, there is a way to get it functional on Steam version, though I never tried it myself yet. czcams.com/video/pH9D__g1yqs/video.html&ab_channel=Plasros I guess you have to download the Nvidia Inspector and set framerate limit to 60fps?
