--- Comment #15 from Tijl Coosemans tijl@ulyssis.org 2009-03-23 12:13:46 --- I'll repeat myself once more: the original problem is still there. The executable exits immediately when run. There's no intro video, no exception. There's nothing at all.
The updated version of the game does get further and has the same problem as bug 7067, but once more, the original version of the game doesn't, at least for me.
It's interesting how you mention you needed a NoCD patch in bug 17804. It's possible that this bug is caused by some copy protection verification failing very early (before even touching the cdrom).
