Gobliiins 4

Windows - 2009

How to Play

The game with NoCD has been tested on Windows 7 64-bit, Windows 10 and Windows 11, it works fine. You may experience some small troubles when you play the game on modern systems, check our Notes for details.

To install the game mount the ISO image or extract the files from it with file archiver tool like WinRAR or 7-zip, and run install.exe. After you installed the game - use NoCD, simply copy exe-file from NoCD archive and put it in Gobliiins 4/Exe folder, agree to replace the original file

Notes:

  • If the installation doesn't start - try to launch install.exe as Administrator and in Compatibility mode with old version of Windows (98, 2000 or XP). If you get an error during the installation, try to change your Windows region to France
  • If the game doesn't work - run it in Compatibility mode with old Windows (like Windows XP) and as Administrator. Also, it is recommended to install all versions of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable and NET Framework for the correct work of the game
  • The game works on DirectX 9, so if you're using Windows 8, 8.1, 10 or 11 - you need to enable DirectPlay: Go to Control Panel, and select 'Programs'. Select 'Turn Windows features on and off', click on 'Legacy Components' and check the box 'DirectPlay'. Select OK, once the installation is done, restart your computer
  • To change the game settings, run the settings configurator (GobsSetup.exe) in Gobliiins 4/Exe folder
  • If you have any graphical glitches like flickering textures, try to run the game in Windowed mode. To do that run GobsSetup.exe and select "Windowed" mode
  • For Windows 11 users: if the game doesn't work, try to run it in Compatibility mode with Windows Vista or Windows 7. If it didn't work, in Compatibility settings additionally select "Run in 640x480 screen resolution" and "Reduced color mode: 16-bit"
  • European Multi-5 version is protected with ProtectDiSC v9 DRM, Multi-3 version (Czech, Polish & Hungarian) doesn't have any strict DRM protection, only the simple disc check. Use NoCDs to "break" the protection and play without the disc, simply copy exe-file from NoCD archive and put it in Gobliiins 4/Exe folder, agree to replace the original file. If you see the error that there's not enough space on the hard drive when you copy NoCD files - re-install the game in non-system folder, like D:/Games/Gobliiins 4, Windows Protection may block copying of files to system folders (like C:/Program Files or C:/Windows)
  • Russian version of the game was protected with infamous StarForce DRM that doesn't work on modern systems and even can "kill" them. But we found Full-Rip with removed StarForce DRM, make sure to check the instructions inside the archive if you play Russian version. Check this and this threads if you have troubles with Russian version

@Zack Not sure what is the issue, but if the game doesn't recognize your GPU, try to run it through dgVoodoo 2 https://dege.freeweb.hu/dgVoodoo2
Also, if you have integrated & discrete GPU, try to run the game only on discrete GPU, select it in control panel of your video card
