I got the game to work somehow, it kept showing black screen before like everyone else keeps mentioning, so I followed FAR51's comment and it still didn't work. Then after that I deleted a specific text file called enginemsg and then booted up the game using the Config.exe file, selected my displays native resolution and it worked. Not sure if this will work for everyone but give it a shot. It runs surprisingly well even on my crap pc

black screen like everybody else, dxwrapper nope, dgvoodoo nope, running included bat file nope, how does this have nearly 5 star votes?
the ISO download is also a RIP and not an installer

The "ISO" version here is not and ISO image but a custom portable rip archive made by IGG site. Misleading/wrong name!
Inside is a now useless "setup.bat" which was already executed before zipping everything, so this RIP version went through many filthy hands already.

OMG; why do I see files called "IGG Games" in the folder? IGG Games uploads are known to have viruses in them. Also game is showing a blackscreen, downloaded in DVD format on archive.org and it works fine

Why does it show german version screenshots and says 'Germany' in the details? that would suggest to believe it's the censored german upload !

The game doesn't work. It doesn't have an installation icon and clicking Game.exe only gets you stuck in a black screen. No sound, nothing. Trying to uninstall and reinstall any of the compenents heralded error screens, forcing me to restart my system. This download is also not a Portable, but an ISO.

Unfortunately, the game doesn't seem to work for me. I start it up, and it just goes to a black screen.
