Guide:Setting up LEGO Loco

From Research Realm

Quick Guide

  1. Put the CD into your computer via optical drive, or mount your ripped .iso file.
  2. Install the game using le717's LOCO Alternate Installer.
  3. In the install folder (usually "C:\Program Files (x86)\LEGO Media\Constructive\LEGO LOCO\Exe"), right click "loco.exe".
  4. Click Properties, and in the Compatibility submenu, check the 'Run as Administrator' box.
  5. Check the Reduced Color Mode box, and set the game to either 8-bit or 16-bit color.
  6. Change your desktop resolution to 800x600, 1024x768, or 1280x1024. These are the only resolutions that Loco runs at.

Troubleshooting

Game isn't launching / Graphical Glitches

If you are still having issues launching the game, issues with the UI or issues with certain buildings' graphics, download DDrawCompat and extract it to the install folder of the game (usually "C:\Program Files (x86)\LEGO Media\Constructive\LEGO LOCO\Exe").
