+Markus L. (Flauschi) Thank you for your comment. Indeed this game is very hard to install and to play on a recent OS, even on XP, and it's more complicated when you want to record your gameplay. I have played it on Win95 with Virtual PC 2004. I have written a tutorial (in French) explaining how I have proceeded to run it perfectly well.
@@slipgatetourist4929 his links dont work anymore... this is the way i've run it on win10: You have to install it on a WinXP virtual machine, then you can move the installation folder to your Win10, and run Dark Earth using DXWnd (a compatibility program for old DirectX games). I think you need to change some settings in DxWnd, for Dark Earth to properly run, but I don't remember which ones... if anyone needs Dark Earth (english or german) or DXWnd, u can download it from my google drive if u want... Dark Earth: drive.google.com/open?id=1tap-HC3uWMRCXHf1SN4aLSH5Ku3byOFL DXWnd: drive.google.com/open?id=1qGqXagoM8xc_mvKaBiwX21ScpcxYCJG9 In my drive there's also a Dark Earth installation folder (the data), but i don't remember if it's Dark Earth with german or english localization files.
@@LAHKW Oh...i took it down yesterday to have some cloud space, and on the same day my hard drive failed me...so i lost Dark Earth -.- Sorry, i didn't think anyone cared about my link, but now I also don't have it locally anymore But I found a link for Dark Earth (english) on archive.org for what it's worth...: archive.org/details/Dark_Earth_1997_MicroProse
If i recall when I tried a few years ago, you can run the music files with modplug tracker or something that plays tracker music. I can't remember the exact file formats, I just know the music Dark Earth uses are tracker files.

I'd like to buy the book Dark Earth The Torch.
Same, I wish they had English translations of the books though.
An Epic Classic Game.

There is now a patch that makes it possible to run Dark Earth on a modern OS. Google:
"Peixoto's patches for a few old games" and you'll find it.

@@cyangalaxy Thank you guys for sharing :) Tom, your first link (Dark Earth) doesn't work. Can you fix it please ?

Adieu Zed is probably my favorite one.
how can you open the files of this game? Wich program do you use?

@@Asaeis Interesting.
