• The game works on DirectX 8, 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
• It is recommended to enter the profile name with only the English letters, so you won't have troubles with savegames. Enter some simple profile name, like "Player"
• If you have any graphical glitches or the game works unstable - disable "Full screen" mode in settings to make the game to run in Windowed mode, the game should work more stable that way
