Support for GOG version of Gothic2 #128

Closed stefson closed 1 year ago

stefson commented 1 year ago

hey there,

today I decided to install the gog version of Gothic2, and after unpacking the renderer into ../system and installing the dxvk libs, it does give an error at starting Gothic2.exe which states: Gothic2 executeable not supported.

I somehow remember this vaguely as a bit of a problem in the past, is this maybe fixed as of now in master branch?

The GD3D11 is not with Gothic 2 Classic compatible, see this german forum post, it is compatible with Gothic 2 Night of the Raven (Gothic 2 with Addon): https://forum.worldofplayers.de/forum/threads/1546222-Yet-Another-D3D11-Renderer/page58?p=27100757&viewfull=1#post27100757

The version sold on gog.com is the Gold Edition, which includes the Night of the Raven Addon. Its Version 2.7

Do you can still play Gothic 2 NotR?

stefson commented 1 year ago

I can play it sure, just not with the renderer.

I just reinstalled from Gold Edition DVD (Softwarepyramide), everything worked without a problem.
