I'm highly unhappy about this. I used GOG's own software, Galaxy, to install this game and it will not launch. I downloaded and installed the old DX9, as shown in previous help threads, AND changed the priveledges to Admin in both the shortcut and the .exe files. It will NOT let me launch directly, I have to use Galaxy, but that doesn't work. Isn't that the point of using Galaxy, to install and play the game without a lot of technical troubles and trying to do a lot of fiddling with the system?

Having the EXACT same problem ... WTF. GOG ?

Yeah this game is fucked in Galaxy.

Same here :(
now I download and try to install that way hope that works
