Guys, I can't play at more than 13 fps, anyone knows why? Obviously my pc has more than enough resourses to run the game, but when I open the app video config it says that my pc doesn't have enough video card....

@lexaochurt:disqus am i doing something wrong? while the game starts in a half quarter left on the screen with BG opened, as soon as the game starts, it returns to fullscreen, with the menu and all to the left, while starting the game. everithing adjusts to the screen but the pointer reacts as if the game is quartered in resolution...

Has anyone else experienced the "Dragon bug" at the end of Act 2? The Dragon disappears if the player ends the game and re-starts and is thus unable to advance beyond this point.
Which version of DS2 is this?
All the patches that I found links to were to the old Gas-Powered Games site which is now defunct.
Does anyone have a link to the patch that fixes this bug?

The game shows the cursor when in windowed mode, but it doesn't have fullscreen-windowed mode. So, this program does that for you.
There are different "borderless gaming" .. use the 9.4.9 others don't work.
And use this commands in the game shortcut:
fullscreen=false nointro=true noloadintro=true nospacecheck=true width=1600 height=900
where 1600x900 use your resolution.
Here is a link to the program, might be deleted, in that case just google it:

The game doesn't have fullsreen-windowed mode (borderless windowed) nor windowed mode only.. so that's why we use the command line.. to make it windowed, and so BG can make it borderless, and finally be able to see the pointer/cursor.

Hi, sorry the delay.
Well.. once you open Borderless Gaming (Lets call it BG) you just open the game, then Alt-tab or minimize some how to go back to BG and you will see two windows in it, the left one says "Applications:" and the right one "Favorites (automatic):" you will see the game in the left one, you just have to switch it to the right window, with the little Arrow that BG has. Then go back to the game and done! fullscreen and pointer, all there.
Here's a pic of BG and how the shortcut should look like, just in case:

Remember to change the resolution, in your case the command should end width=1366 height=768
Hope you get it going now.. any trouble don't doubt to comment again please.
Have a nice day.

Click "Proprieties" on the game's shortcut on the desktop, in Shortcut Tab there's a Target box as you see in @lexaochurt:disqus 's photo.
After DungeonSiege2.exe" type fullscreen=false nointro=true noloadintro=true nospacecheck=true width=1366 height=768
So it'll look like this DungeonSiege2.exe" fullscreen=false bla bla bla
click apply and ok
