Hello, I came to report a problem I have, you see, on pcgamingwiki I saw that in the game solutions to avoid the game from closing was to use this plugin, question, I paste the file in the root folder of the game (where the executable is) I enter the game and I see that no .ini file is created, I have tried your solutions that you have on your wiki and nothing.

I think PCGamingWiki is wrong, this game doesn't use DirectDraw at all, at least not on my system. It uses Direct3D 9 (it's actually correctly mentioned later in the API section), so DDrawCompat won't help with it.

I didn't see any use of DirectShow either, at least not before the game crashes. I'm closing this as D3D9 is not supported by DDrawCompat.

Well, at least thanks for clearing my doubts.
