Read Full Description

The game with NoDVD has been tested on Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 10, it works fine, the game supports widescreen resolutions up to 4k. You may experience some small troubles when you play the game on modern systems, check our Guide and Notes for details

Install & play guide:

  • Mount the ISO image with disc image utility, like WinCDEmu, UltraISO, Alcohol 52%/Alcohol 120% or Daemon Tools Lite, etc. Or, if you have WinRAR installed, extract the files from ISO image
  • Install the game (if autorun doesn't work - simply launch the installation from Setup.exe inside the disc). It is recommended to install the game not in default path, but in some other, non-system folder, like C:/Games/Family Guy Back to the Multiverse
  • After you installed the game - install NoDVD, simply copy all files from the archive and put it into game folder, agree to replace original file
  • Don't run the game right now, first block the Internet access for FGUY.exe through Windows Firewall, otherwise the game will try to connect to the Internet. Here's the guide how to do that, and also a video guide
  • Open the directory with the game and find FGUY.exe. Right click on FGUY.exe -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Set "Run this app in compatibility mode with Windows 7" and "Run as administrator"
  • Launch the game and play. If the game doesn't work in compatibility mode with Windows 7 - try to launch it in compatibility mode with other version of Windows (Windows XP, Vista, etc.)

If the game doesn't work even after you added the Windows Firewall rule - disable the Internet connection and try to run it again

Notes:

  • If the installation doesn't start - try to launch Setup.exe in compatibility mode with old version of Windows (98, 2000 or XP)
  • It is recommended to install all versions of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable and NET Framework for the correct work of the game. Also it is recommended to install K-Lite Codec Pack for the correct work of in-game videos
  • The game works on DirectX 9, so if you're using Windows 8, 8.1, 10 or 11 - you need to enable DirectPlay: Go to Control Panel, and select 'Programs'. Select 'Turn Windows features on and off', click on 'Legacy Components' and check the box 'DirectPlay'. Select OK, once the installation is done, restart your computer
  • NoDVD is required for the launch because the game is using Steam API DRM, if you don't use it the game will try to launch the Steam client, and you will see only the "Steam must be running in order to launch the game" error. NoDVD "cracks" DRM protection and allows to run the game. If you see the error that there's not enough space on the hard drive when you copy NoDVD files - re-install the game in non-system folder, like D:/Games/Family Guy Back to the Multiverse, Windows Protection may block copying of files to system folders (like C:/Program Files or C:/Windows)
  • If the game crashes on the start or in random moments: open Windows Registry editor (press Win+R -> type regedit.exe), go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Heavy Iron Studios Inc./Family Guy/Settings, find the line ScreenWindowed and change from 01 00 00 00 to 00 00 00 00 (if there's any other value than 01 00 00 00, change it to 00 00 00 00 anyway). After that run the game in compatibility mode with Windows 7. Here's also the guide with pictures
  • If it didn't help: delete the whole Settings folder from HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Heavy Iron Studios Inc./Family Guy/Settings Registy path. Additionaly, enable Vsync in control panel of your video card (if it was already enabled - try to disable it). Then run the game in compatibility mode with Windows 7
  • If you want to change FOV (Field of View) in the game, you need to edit FGUY.exe with any HeX-editor, check WSGF and PCGW for more details, or use FOV Fix, it has edited exe-files with a higher FOV for 4:3 and 16:9 screen ratios
  • If you run the game in Windowed mode and it doesn't save the settings for Windowed mode, and/or the screen resolution is labelled as undefined, you need to set up your screen resolution like in this guide, or use FOV Fix
  • The game supports widescreen resolutions up to 4k, however, it doesn't have an option to select ultra-wide screen resolutions. But you can enable it through Windows Registry, by changing ScreenWidth and ScreenHeight parameters in HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Heavy Iron Studios Inc./Family Guy/Settings Registy path
  • If you don't like blurring in game, you can disable it by running the game through dgVoodoo, check this guide for details
  • There's a known problem when the game crashes at the exit if you run it in Windowed mode. Running the game with dgVoodoo can fix the problem, the instruction is in the same guide
  • The game has a controller support and should work fine with any XInput-type controllers, like Xbox gamepads. If you XInput-controller and the game doesn't recongize it, use x360ce tool. If you have any other type of controllers (like DirectInput), you probably will need to use additional tools that can emulate XInput controllers
  • If you have problem with broken sound effects or disappearing sound - first try to change the sound settings. If it didn't work - set sound quality to 24 bit, 48000 Hz or 24 bit, 44100 Hz. Read this guide how to do that
  • Don't forget to check PCGamingWiki if you have troubles!
