Disciples 2 Gold

Disciples 2 - Dark Prophecy and Gallean's Return and Disciples 2 - Rise of the Elves

Changelog for Update (added 08 July 2019):

- added Polish language support

As i can googleit it, PL version have only two-voice dubbing. And RotE have different voices.
Anyone know when russian version be added? Akella did it for Disciples 1.

P.S. First game have PL localization by Lemon Interactive, not a CDPL.

Something new:
http://www.gogdb.org/manifest/867068e4e36c9ebba250fe1f415511ae
those needed only on Windows 8\10.

It can help with wrong colors palette in Disciples 1. Probalby (normally GOG used additional dll for that - xdraw.dll markes as GOG ddraw x-7 wrapper). Better use from some other recent game, eg Warcraft 2 BNE.

[UPDATE]
After combining with various settings it works.
Here are the setting that works for me:

Discipl2.exe - compatibility mode: Windows 95

ConfigEditor settings:
Resolution: 1024x768, Refreshing: 60 Hz
Display in window enabled, Use Direct3D enabled, Intro disabled
other settings as default

------ORIGINAL BELOW------


When I updated the game and Windows 10 to latest version, the game crashes on startup.
Previously it worked fine. I have reinstalled game and tried again - same result.

See crash details below.

Specs:
Windows 10 Professional 64bit
Graphics: NVIDIA GTX 970, drivers 430.86

Any solution for this?

Did you ever get any feedback on correcting this problem. I'm having the same issue. Tried the previous options on downloading some file from one site but that didn't work either. Still looking for answers or work-arounds

Hi,

Unfortunately no. I can't run game with GOG launcher. It looks like it does not apply compatibility settings.
Try to set compatibility to Windows 95 on Discipl2.exe file and other settings as I have described in previous post using ConfigEditor. Then run game directly from folder.
