No windows 10 fix

[MisterSheepy]

I tried this game with windows 10 and it's a no go xD Not even troubleshooter can fix it. It just refuses to load up.

I'm not too surprised, considering this release is basically unchanged from the original that came out in 2003. I can barely get it running on my Win 7 PC.

Anything past XP will have issues. Did you ever try compatibilty mode on XP mode? Worth a shot. With windows 10 the compatility doesn't do squat.

I did work on my windows 8.1 machine.

[MisterSheepy]

I tried it on my laptop when I had windows 8.1 but it was always running into lag and was just SUPER buggy.

The game works again.

Still super laggy. I get to the part after cut scene and well it crashes. I had to request a refund.

I can't pull up the game even though I clicked the play button.

Just request a refund. The game runs off a horrible game engine. Even if you get it running it will lag or crash.

3 years later, I'm having to request a refund as well.

I reached out to Nightdive Studios, got a message directly from Daniel himself (Their head Producer) that they can no longer provide support for these games. I was redirected to Humongous Entertainment/Tommo Inc who's been dead silent after multiple support tickets and emails.

Game totally fails to run on Windows 8.1 64-bit and 10.

The ONLY way to fix this is to have a CD Drive to play the game. I have no idea why but it works.

I tried virtual drives but they couldn't be installed on my gaming computer for some reason but I had a USB CD Drive and it worked so there you go.

I was able to get mine working by mounting any .iso file using Windows 10 file explorer, and then starting the game. The game instantly saw the drive labeled "DVD Drive" and started right up. However, it did lock up my screen when I tried to Alt+Tab out.
