Warhammer Dark Omen Forum

I've dug out my old windows 7 64bit pc and sent you both sets of registry files and whole Dark Omen install folder, including the PRG_ENG folder that contains a working EngRel.exe and dgvoodoo control panel that plays the game in 3d but black & white cursors to begin testing with.

Please read the help fix guide as it shows the alternative registry location

or in the VirtualStore
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Electronic Arts]

So did you try the registry, as it sets things like the coloured cursor etc.

Hi and welcome. Sounds like the registry isn't correct due to permissions like user account control. Please download the mod pack, in the help fix guide which contains the registry files. The registry is why it thinks the game still exists even after you have uninstalled.

Agreed, we are so lucky to have so many great mods that breath new life into Dark Omen.

In the guide it mentions using GameRanger for multiplayer

Hope to see you online for some fun training and battles.

Yep, there's also the army book profile pictures that now need fixing when using dgvoodoo2 but definitely worth it, as looks so much better.


 

Hi, please follow the help fix guide and dgvoodoo2 as fairly new and makes DO look 200% better. Or just send me your teamviewer details and I will remote in and fix.

Yep check your messages and hope to see you online in Game Ranger for some multiplayer fun soon.

Hi and welcome, yes you need a UK cd.

Hi, yes you do need a UK CD and the mod fixes are really for win10 so you might find some bits wont work. Originally DO on win98 should work but you might need a Dark Omen no CD fix perhaps.

Agreed, the worst part is worrying about other family members and keeping them all safe and well.

Hi,

Since you've already tried a few things, then probably easier for me to remote in using Teamviewer and investigate. Message me your ID and session password and preferred GMT 0 time. It will probably  be antivirus or Admin permissions and have you installed the registry fixes?

There used to be a link to it within this wiki article, so I will investigate why it no longer links to it.

Final Liberation is still my favourite turn based game, with X-Com Apocalypse. Chaos Gate wasn't as good but still fun to play.
