Hey guys, I just downloaded Age of Wonders Shadw Magic on my Windows 10, (I also have HoMM3 Galaxy), but it refuses to launch. When I press the "play" button it goes gray, and then returns to purple with no other error message or obvious effect.

Is there a fix for this?

Thank you in advance

Set AoWSM.exe to run in compatibility mode for Windows XP SP3 and in 16-bit colour mode.

Then, follow procedures on the PCGW article about improving performance: [url=https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Age_of_Wonders:_Shadow_Magic]https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Age_of_Wonders:_Shadow_Magic[/url]
