Hello, I recently bought the GOG version of Unreal 2004, but I can't get it to work. When I launch it, it crashes and displays an error message like the one below. I tried compatibility modes for Win XP, 98, etc. but none works.
Once the game started in windowed mode and it worked, then I got to the settings menu to crank up the display resolution but it crashed immediately.
I play on laptop with an i7 cpu and a gt745 gpu, on windows 10. Any help is welcome :)

It seems like it can't find the older D3D files. Try to install DirectX 9.0c, or put the older D3D libraries next to the game's exe.

No problem. I hope it helps you. For me the DirectX 9.0.c basically fixed every problems with older games. :)

Turns out that Directx9 is already installed on windows 10. The solution to my problem was using the 64-bit .exe file

I see, then it is cool the game works. I wish there is more 64 bit patches, but most of the classics not have something like this.

Hello all,

I get the same error message when starting the game.
Where can I find the 64bit exe, that helped you solving the problem?
I can only find one exe in the UT system folder.

Thanks in advance.

There is no 64-bit official .exe. You can download an unofficial one at utzone.
