.............................................................................

:: INSTALLATION ::

1-First, install your CD game in Setup Type "Custom" then select all options like [Executable Files] [Game Data] [Movie Files] [Music Files] [StrategyGuide] so it will install all files in your HD and you will be able to play without CD perfectly using this Patch.

2-As this Patch works in all game versions you don't need to install any Official Patch, but if you want to patch your game to the last 1.13 patch wich allows you to play without CD Protection and fix some bugs, install it BEFORE installing KCP Windows 10 Patch. (I added a folder called "(EXTRA) KPC Official Patches" so inside it you will find all old official patches for all languages)

3-Lastly, install this "KPC Windows 10 Patch" inside your "Psycho" folder at: "C:\Games\Psycho" or wherever directory you intalled your game

(Attention: When you play the game create a "New Profile" or else some Patch Fixes will not take effect. You can remove your Old Profiles simply going to "profiles" folder inside your game folder and deleting the ".cfg" files inside it)

:: REQUIRED SOFTWARES FOR OLD GAMES RUN IN WINDOWS 10 AND 11 ::

-Activate DirectPlay in your Windows (It's essential to play KPC in Win 10 and 11)
-Install DirectX 9.0c End-User Runtimes (June 2010)
-Install Visual C++ Redistributable Runtimes All-in-One
-Install K-Lite Codec Pack Full (Or else many games crash when videos play)
-Install nGlide - Glide wrapper
-Install and Activate .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1
-Check if DirectDraw acceleration and Direct3D acceleration are enabled in your windows

.............................................................................

:: KNOW BUGS ::

-Third Person has some limitations like if you Crouch you can only Stand Up if you return to First Person pressing "C"

-In Third Person you can only hit enemies using Melee Weapons if the enemy is at your right side (It will not hit enemies in front of you)

-Never SAVE your game in Third Person mode since it turns enemies INVISIBLE (If it happens save the game again in First Person that reverts the bug)

-In level "Cathedral" after you battle the "Fat Lady" for the first time there are a stairs for you get the body armor and you will always get stucked into it. To release yourself use the weapon "Earth Whip" in a secret "hook" in the upper part of the ceiling behind you (Game Developers Tricked Us On Purpose For Us keep Eternally Listening "God Gave Rock 'N' Roll To You" Lol)
