Hi chaps,

Not been around very much for a long time, hope everyone is keeping happy and well.

I'm having problems installing BoS on my new PC running Windows 10. I downloaded the installer from 1C's website but every time it runs it goes through the install and then when launching it reports a "can't find backend libaries" or similar error. I had not problems originally installing in Win 7. Kind or ironic as I now have a PC powerful enough to run it in all it's glory smile

Any help very much appreciated.

Cheers and thanks

Aces

Hope we can get an resolution to this mate. If all else happens then I believe that I can port the game from my old PC to the new one as soon as I get a second DVI cable to hook up my old monitor.

Best regards

Aces,

I tried that (loaded BoS/BoM) on another computer, tried to start the game and had the same error. I'll try Win 7 compatibility mode next...

Cheers!

Aces,

A possible solution reported on the BoS Tech Issues page; the missing files may be here: Media Fire

Cheers!

BTW, I lived for two years in a small UK village (250 souls) and loved every minute! We rented a thatched roof cottage that was built in 1642...

OK, install the files in the link provided in the "bin\game" folder -- it worked for me!
