I am trying to run game called Zombie Wars I saw this person was able to run it successfully https://pratikone.github.io/gaming/2021/09/02/reverse-engineer-zombiewars.html

On version 0.9.0 i do not get menu bar which i need to select level and change controls from joystick to keyboard since it defaults to joystick and disables keyboard when joystick is selected And i need to turn on and then off my gamepad/controller (bluetooth one)

Yet on version 0.7.0 i do get menu bar but as soon as i enter1st level i get error and only thing i can do is close game

Version 0.9.0 image

As you see i have no menu bar Pressing alt do not make it appear and pressing F12 which toggle full screen just opens another window also without menu bar

Yet i turn on my gamepad and then turn it off image

And bam in in level 1 image

But like i said i need to turn it on and off each time i want to play And i have no access to level select menu which is in menu bar

Now version 0.7.0 image

Menu bar is here i can change controls from menu

But as soon as level starts i get this error image

Console shows this image

Again this is version 0.7.0

My problem is not with the fact i need to change controls since i could simply use autohotkey to simulate them with key presses My problem is with lack of that menu bar to select levels and not repeat ones i already completed Or with that error i get in 0.7.0 version if there would be fix for that or a way to show that menu bar in version 0.9.0 that would be all i need

Get the lastest dev version from https://ci.appveyor.com/project/otya128/winevdm/builds/50069198/job/a6ldmuho6hb2p8ew/artifacts, it works for me.

And i have same exact result with it image

Maybe i am launching the game in a wrong way? I drag and drop zombie wars exe file onto otvdm.exe where otvdmw.exe is same thing just without console

I did also try to run otvdmw.exe then navigate to zombie wars exe file but also i get same result

Maybe i am missing something?

Try this one which I used https://archive.org/details/eurocd-zombie-war/ . Be sure not to install it to the program files directory or it will error out.
