Haegemonia: Legions of Iron

Haegemonia: Legions of Iron

Windows 10 Problem Solved!
"Haegemonia: Legions of Iron" works fine on Windows 10 (but only in windowed mode)

Solution is:

1) Download a DxWnd: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dxwnd/

2) Unzip it

3) Download a configuration file:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0aWV_rpK_5Qdm1BU2J1YU9rZ2M/view?usp=sharing

or create the configuration file manually by creating an empty file with the following name: dxwnd.ini
and paste into this file the following content:

[window]
posx=665
posy=215
sizx=588
sizy=372
[target]
title0=Haegemonia Legions of Iron
path0=D:\Applications\Steam\steamapps\common\Haegemonia Legions of Iron\Game.exe
launchpath0=
module0=
opengllib0=
ver0=0
coord0=0
flag0=806355140
flagg0=134217744
flagh0=1040
flagi0=2228224
tflag0=0
initx0=0
inity0=0
minx0=0
miny0=0
maxx0=0
maxy0=0
posx0=0
posy0=0
sizx0=1400
sizy0=960
maxfps0=0
initts0=0
winver0=8
maxres0=0
notes0=
registry0=
flagj0=0
flagk0=16384
swapeffect0=0


4) Next, you’ll need to modify the path to the game executable in the dxwnd.ini config file:
path0=PATH_TO_THE_GAME_EXE

5) Copy/Paste the configuration file dxwnd.ini into the DxWnd folder

6) Run the DxWnd.exe as administrator, and if “Haegemonia: Legions of Iron” in the DxWnd application shows as green, run the game.

7) Enjoy :steamhappy:

This worked for my GOG version as well. I completely forgot about DXWND... I use it to get some other games to run in a window (I'm looking at you PinballFX2). Thanks for reminding me about it.
When i try to download the dxwnd from soul forge, it doesnt make a folder, even when i unzip it. and when i look at the configuraotn file, its a lot of text and nothign to download. any advice would be much appreciated

Need help please. Seems like this thread is onto something. I got the green light in Dxwnd, but when selcting run, the game still does not start. I'm running win 10. Any suggestions?

SHould the Haegemonia exe file be set to any sort of compatibility?
Y'all...I can't do this. For starters, the link to direction #3 is no good. I tried looking up "Hegemonia DXW" but it was no good there as well.

Furthermore, I don't understand direction #5 at all. I've never used DxWnd. I have Windows 10.

You have to run dxwnd.exe as administrator
This game seems fully compatible with dgVoodoo2. I'm testing it and works well with 4x Antialiasing and Reshade. Only problems are MSI Afterburner not working with it (pretty rare) and window scaling behaving strangely.

Also for some reason they left that useless Hgm.exe in there and Steam only counts the time THAT particular exe is running. Wasted like 5 hours already.

Simply renaming Game.exe to Hgm.exe (and deleting, moving or renaming the useless one) fixes this problem. Preferably use the one in this other fix: http://www.moddb.com/downloads/haegemonia-legions-of-iron-sound-system-fix
