Inside the update you uploaded on sendspace, the exes have version numbers 2.2 and are more recent. Here, i dont get any error anymore.
I think i have the game from the Gold Games 3 collection, i will search it.


EDIT: I installed the game now and patched it to latest version.
Unfortunately it does not run on my pc at all, even with disc in drive.
Simply nothing happes when launching an .exe file.
I have 32bit Win Xp Sp3.


In what language do you play? There is a separate function for each language responsible for displaying error messages.

yep, I got the game update because I have many different pcs (desktop and laptops) so I use the updated 3dfx + glide wrapper or direct3d/normal versions depending on the system.

@Cowsheep: I have a win xp sp3 too. Without the cd if I click on the exe nothing happens. But with cd inserted, the game starts normally.
Maybe have you got a pentium 4? I have an old pc with p4 and there is no way to make the game start on it (click on exes and nothing happens), even using the p4/amd patcher found on the web.

you can try to google for the single updates with installer (updatePOD21_norm-ati-s3, updatePOD21_d3d-dx5, updatePOD21_d3d and updatePOD21_3dfx). For my experience (and not only mine) they are a bitch to install correctly on modern systems. I far prefer using the simple unrar method version but maybe those can fix your problem. And the updates will not work if you have got the "pod gold" version.

edit: I have an italian system. You can change game language from c:\windows\ubisoft\ubi.ini
