Syberia on Windows 11

[RamiroRa]

Can't play the game on windows 11, it says no 3d accelerator available. Any ideas?

I think you have to install DirectPlay from Windows Features menu and download DirectX End-User Runtime (preferably Web Installer) from Microsoft site. I recently finish the game on Windows 11 with no major issues except one random crash.

I followed these steps worked for me might work for you
download dxwnd
open dxwnd -> file menu -> import -> go to your dxwnd folder then exports folders-> search for syberia



and if you have menu textures missing enable these options:
right click on syberia -> modify -> from these menu check these options and let the other options be as is

Video | window style: modal, Screen Resolution: SD(4:3)
DirectX(2) | fix ddraw refcount , set 16bp ... ,safe pallete, full rect blit, fix dc pallet
you better play it with Main | Generic: Run in Window

browse local files, right click on Game.exe, properties, compatibility, run in 640 x 480 resolution. that should be enough. in ingame option you can even set 32 bit depness without issues.

Apart of this, I followed:

And now it opens and runs without issues (for now, just played for a couple of hours)
