I also attempted to run the game in windowed mode using a program called DxWnd, but it didn't seem to have any effect whatsoever and the same errors still appeared. I attempted various manipulations with the Windows compatibility settings for the executable dmcr.exe, I tried a GSC ddraw.dll patch from 2008 and a community patch from 2019 consisting of a file called dplayx.dll, but I had no success with either approach. Now errors of this type have been reported by other users in the past, however none of the fixes which were previously prescribed for these other users worked for me. Which is promptly followed by the game failing to load and crashing out instead. Upon selecting the 'Retry' option provided, I receive the following error message instead: When attempting to load the game from a fresh GOG install, I receive the following error message (including the spelling mistake):ĭilplay mode 1024x768x8 not found. I'd like to request some assistance from GOG, the developers and from other members of this community to help me test out potential fixes and provide their expertise. Hello all, I've been having serious trouble getting the entire Cossacks I series as well as related games by GSC to run on my Windows 10 HP Spectre X360 laptop, however the good news is I've found some fixes which do a great deal to make the game playable, although there is still more work to be done.
