* If the X-Ray Viewer is inaccessible in the Operating Theatre no image will There are also the following known issues: * Fullscreen animations such as the level screen and winning letter. * Visual effects on patients with serious radiation and jellyitis. It is a reimplementation of the game code via reverse engineering the behaviour of the actual game - it does not run the actual game code developed by Bullfrog.Ĭurrently the following is not yet implemented: To be clear Corsix-TH is not a 3rd party launcher. So this third party launcher is a solution, after all DOSBox is a third party too. Ĭorsix-Th on the other hand is working perfectly ! Then I tried to run it on GNU/Linux with DOSBox and it crash my x.org server. Keep checking back at Corsix page, he updates it from time to time with new version.
GoG (Dosbox?) version alone will work just fine the same way as the original game run, but if you looking for extended features (such as more resolutions etc) then Corsix 'addon' is for you as well. It uses original files (such as graphics, scripts, sounds, etc) but the engine and everything is rewritten, that is why you have bugs that are not in the original game. GoG adjusts existing games or in some cases uses DosBox for old Dos games to make them work.Ĭorsix is an executable, fan-made project where it practically rewrites the game.
I've yet to purchase Theme Hospital from GoG, but when I used Corsix-TH with my copy of TH last year it was somewhat buggy, Janitors were standing idly doing nothing at the 3rd or 4th level, which wasn't normal behaviour, so I gave up playing. Salty_wagyu: Isn't the whole point of using GoG releases is because it's optimized for Windows 7, thus doing away using hacks/third-party programs to make them work? *Disclaimer: This worked for me, your mileage may vary. A file browser dialogue will pop-up asking you to direct it to your Theme Hospital directory. Tweak the option if you want, then click the play button. After a short loading process, the menu will appear. Once it is installed check the 'launch game' checkbox and click finish.
Install it to C:\games\ just to be sure). Install it to your hard drive (I've heard the default install path causes problems in some GOG releases. On the upside, this project brings about high resolution monitor support and better stability for modern operating systems than the DOSbox versions.įirstly, purchase and download GOGs release of Theme Hospital. In short this means you need the base game to run it.
As the developers do not have their own art and sound teams, they make use of the original Bullfrog game assets. For those of whom are unaware, Corsix TH is an open source attempt to recreate the Theme Hospital engine compatible with modern PC hardware.
