GOG needs to fix this game so it actually launches or stop selling it.

I've played this game for YEARS, still have the original CD.

When it game to GoG, it worked great.
Overtime, it started to crash a lot making it unplayable.
Then I get the Steam version OK, then starts to crash and unplayable.
It has this issue where it crashes every 3-5min.

Anyways, got TOTALLY NEW SYSTEM, so install it from GOG...and...crashes at launch.
Says it's going to "run config..." but it doesn't. I manually do the setup. Still same error. Totally F*d.

The support is useless.

They need to remove this game from the store or make it so it works when you launch it.
That was one of the biggest selling points of going with GOG, is they make these old games work without the user/player having to go through the hassle of figuring it out themselves.

Practically have to be a hardware AND software engineer AND programmer all in one, seemingly, to make this game work. Don't they already have people for that? Someone can probably remake this game from scratch in faster time it would appear.

Hey
My Tzar won't even start loading, Windows 11. I tried different mods and settings and I only got some message screen from the game (I'll attach the screenshot). Please HELP
