Hi guys,
I discovered your nice site last week and i decided to dive again in this nice game...so I took my cd (french version but i tried french install AND English install), install work and I followed the instructions (clear!) there http://forum.dark-omen.org/help-section/ultimate-dark-omen-xpvistawin7-game-fixes-t111.0.html;msg310#msg310
but.. the game when launching a new campaign write no cd (while it finds the letter of the cd player where it is!!). So i tried full install with cd same message. Then i tried the no cd patch (lol) with and without cd, same message :-( ... so i tried and iso found in the abandonware on the web with no cd patch, same message ...
I did not find such troubles in the forum, so can you help me and light me about what i did wrong? My original CD is dead (hope not, i keep it in healthy place with diablo, dungeon keeper, daggerfall, fallout1&2, and the other gems of my childhood)? But if so, why the abandonware iso does the same message?

windows 8.1 x64, blu-ray reader ATAPI iHBS112 (driver Microsoft 21/06/2006 6.3.9600.16384)

Thanks for your incoming help.

Hi, Download our mods folders and it will solve your problems but remember to ->

Please locate your Dark Omen folder, such as

C:\Program Files\Dark Omen or C:\Program Files (x86)\Dark Omen

and rename these 2 folders -> PRG_ENG and Save Game to anything like PRG_ENGOrig and Save GameOrig

Then download this goody bag that contains many excellent mods and the paste the 3 new folders into Dark Omen folder

http://www.mediafire.com/download/fnnkq89xdjy75m0/DarkOmenMods.zip[/url]
 
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Dark Omen\PRG_ENG and right click on EngRel.exe and
Enable the "Run in 640 x 480 Screen Resolution" on the compatibility tab to have a fullscreen window".

On Win8:

Win8 Set 16-bit color on the compatibility tab

On Win7 Set the desktop to 16-bit color.
