Issues

  • Since this is a multi-disc game, you'll need to start the installer with --monitor-cdrom-eject syntax. (This is not needed for Point2Play.)
  • The installer has several issues when entering the serial code. It will accept the first two digits, then jump to the next field, so it gets a bit tedious having to shift+tab back a field, enter a letter and go back again. Because I installed it a few times, I found it to be easier to write down the serial in a text editor and then copy & paste the values. Write it like this for easy copying:
xxxx xxxx xxxx xx
  • Ignore any warnings you get about windows 95/98/NT being unsupported.
  • Copyright protection is not supported so you will need a no-cd crack.
  • The game crashes my x-server on exit.
