Introduction
Usually Exceed games don't run fine in newer systems!
Thanks to this guide we can improve the framerate for all Exceed games
Fix the framerate(Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit method)
1/ Download Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit, here:
Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit for Windows 7 [www.microsoft.com]
Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit for Windows 10/11[learn.microsoft.com]
And install it (yup pretty obvious).
(select ApplicationCompatibilityToolkitSetup.exe)
2/ Go to the folder where you installed it (by default it's got to be something like this
"C:\Program FIles(x86)\Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit") for Windows 7
or "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Kits\Windows ADK\Application Compatibility Toolkit\Developer and Tester Tools" for Windows 10/11
Then go to Compatibility Administrator (32-bit) (even if you're on a x64 OS) and launch Compatadmin.exe
3/ Right click on "New Database(1) [Untitled_1] and choose: Create New->Application Fix...

4/ Complete the fields as you wish and click on browse to select eXceed.exe. Then click next

5/ Skip the Compatibility Modes screen by clicking "next".

6/ In the Compatibility Fixes screen, enable NOGDIHwAcceleration. Then click next

7/ Click Finish

8/ Click on the save button, give your database a name and save it where you want (I saved it in the Exceed directory)

9/ Then Right Click on your database and select install.

10/ If u do well u can run the game in 60fps directly in steam

For eXceed 2nd and eXceed 3rd you have to do the same thing
Have fun !! ;)


If your pc don't reach 60fps in eXceed 1, you can enable in Compatibility Modes
8And16BitsAggregateBits
8And16BitDXMaxWinMode
8And16BitGDIRedraw




Fix The Framerate (djvoodoo method)
1.Download Last stable version of DgVoodoo2 http://dege.freeweb.hu
2.Extract the x86 MS content in game folder also drag dgVoodoo.conf and dgVoodooCpl.exe files there.
Folder should be like this
3.To get rid of watermark
launch dgVooCpl.exe
Then Go Direct X Tab
Uncheck Watermark like the screen and apply.

Optional :
You can Tweak your game by forcing resolution and apply a texture filtering


Thanks to Hyperduel to share dgVoodoo2 Software

I tried both methods for Exceed 3rd but none worked :(
I don't think it's my PC because even lowering many settings on dgVoodoo makes no apparent impact on the game's performance
Thank you nonetheless...!

So, tried to use dgVoodoo for the first game recently (eXceed - Gun Bullet Children) and the game was launching in black-and-white. Found out the solution in the readme file for dgVoodoo: for AMD users you need to select Output API as Direct3D12 in the general tab

@brnzen Thanks man, that fixed it for me! :Helen_wink2:

The game is running too fast, I have a 144hz panel so vsync won't fix that...

I just want to note that you should download the 2.71.3 version of dgVoodoo, not the most recent version listed on its website. I'm not sure why, but using the most recent stable build of dgVoodoo caused Exceed 1 to be 100% saturated black and white, rendering completely unplayable. The version 2.71.3 which was the most recent at the publishing of this guide works fine, and I was able to play the game at a stable 60fps.

@Gangstalker #45, thank you mate!, I didn't notice the 'x86 MS' folder yesterday. Putting those dll's worked for me as well, what a difference!

@mickael28 copying the dll's from the directx folder into the base folder like in the picture worked for me
