With Cxbx-Reloaded Version 36f9e171 (May 3 2017) the game not hangs at the first screen anymore and showes two intro screens again before crashes. One note I need to mention, the game causes massive slowdown on whole system, even my mouse pointer difficult to move in process of the emulation

Yeah, the vertex buffer creation code inside of D3DResource_Register is broken. I was working on this last night and didn't find any immediate solutions.

A new video uploaded less than a day ago by CakeLancelot of this game running on the emulator (Using Luke's experimental build [d28760c0 (Feb 5 2018)], where many of the commits there should be in master by now).

Shows a few logo videos, then the menu (Good display of graphics with some glitches and it all ran a bit too fast), then the intro game FMV before leading to a load screen (It hangs).

I can confirm this behavior hasn't really changed since the changes have been merged into master. The game appears to be slightly slower than before but nothing major.

I will try to write up a detailed report later, but the crash upon starting the game appears to be a memory issue that is also affecting other titles that recently started working. I believe LukeUsher stated he would investigate these later.

As detailed in this comment I made this title also encounters a regression on Cxbx-Reloaded/Cxbx-Reloaded@7a84ece.

EDIT: I'll also be posting/using the Xbe dump from my copy of the game, since the initially uploaded one appears to be modified: Xbe.txt

As of https://github.com/Cxbx-Reloaded/Cxbx-Reloaded/commit/0bd18b50de101b5fe63478b4af65cb738556b8b1 the behavior of this game is back to as I described above.

Now ingame. Fairly nice graphics. (Edit: Has a bit choppy performance).

Edit (17/03/2018): Performance is now smooth according to the latest video. The PC has a garbled opaque square that continues to rotate beneath his feet representing his shadow (?). Will you update the compat label too?

Performance should also be improved due to recent developments.
