Tzar: The Burden of the Crown

Tzar: The Burden of the Crown

Game dont work, fix it or put information
game doesnt work on win 10/11, when i fix things about resolution i find new problem - game crush few minutes after start. TZAR is very oldschool game and got many fans but the game is built on old engines and is not compatible with new systems, sadly but truly.
Its bad when many ppl pay (ok its only some $) money and cant run it :D

It's working great for me (Windows 10 64bit) so far.

In my case :
°Could not launch Tzar from Steam (still can't, but It's not an issue).
°Had to go to the game files (steam library) and enable Windows XP as the retrocompatibility mode for both the setup .exe and the Tzar .exe.
°Ran the setup .exe first.
°Chose the 1024x768 resolution (I don't mind the upscale and enlarging of the image, as long as the game runs fine). Ran tzar from the Setup .exe the first time.
°Now, I launch the game from the Tzar .exe directly.

Have not encountered any crashes so far.
That's basically my setup, might help or might not help, but might aswell share it. :bunnyinablanket:

-w 1920 -h 1080 in the command options and it should work
Used to work on my win11, but stopped after the most recent driver update. First, I couldn't generate a random map, then tried to fix it by chaning properties of the tzar.ini and changing the compatiblility of the .exe, but now the game died even with original ini put back in the place. Maybe this can be useful for you:
