Hi guys,
Yup, Mikedie's error message (GPF at 00636793) is _exactly_ what I was referring to! Apparently, it's not my Windows 98 being damaged, it's a bug in the game: a NULL pointer dereference that, for some reason, does not execute under Windows 2000/XP.
@Mikedie: My patch skips the call to the routine that causes this problem. The game seems to run though... Play with it and tell us if it works fine for you; if I have time this weekend, I'll do the same.
EDIT: Oh, I think you're mixing things up! Grab Reloaded's no-CD executable for v1.1 and patch _that_ with my Win98/ME compatibility patch for v1.1. It works!
Joe
