Trying to run Matrix Games' redux from the original TalonSoft Campaign Series (west front, east front and rising sun in a single package) I stubble on a reproducible crasher bug.
The game is oddly organized using a main program for campaign management. this is actually working unfortunately the game crashes as the real game binary is triggered. This is —as far I can compare— happening when the binary tries to change Windows' window manager color from current value to some military green (as in my windows environment). The application use afaik no 3D engine. That's a crude windows 2D strategy game.
The game is sale there : http://www.matrixgames.com/products/318/details/John.Tiller%27s.Campaign.Ser...
I both tried vanilla and last patch installation (1.04) experimenting the same problem. There is unfortunately no demo available, as far as I know, but I can provide a game copy and license if needed.
Please ask me anything you need in order to help you, i'd be glad to help !
