Talonsoft's version won't work in Windows 10. You need the Matrix version. It's on sale for only $9.99:

Were you trying to get those scenarios working using your Talonsoft disks? If so, that's why. If you were using the Matrix version, did you get any errors? Can you describe the problem?

 im running the original talon soft programs  on a virtual drive ,, my laptop is running Windows 8,,i also have tiller ..if i need updates for the matrix version.. which updates are they,,
On the matrix version i got popups saying error reading scenario,, or it would just be a regular game screen,, but no map,,just a black screen



RE: some scenarios not working - Scud - 12-28-2018

From what I understand, the Talonsoft version won't work right from Windows 7 on, not sure about XP. I don't think running it from a virtual drive makes a difference, but maybe?

As for Matrix, once you buy the game from them and register it you can log into your account with them and go to your list of games. That's where you can find the current updates. Or use the update link on the opening screen of the game.

I think the black screen you describe happens when the game can't find the map file? Not positive. Try searching for posts here or at Matrixgames. Just about all the early kinks have been resolved, so I'm sure Jason Petho or someone else on the team can help you out.

What version of the Matrix game do you have installed now? I'm not on my regular computer so I can't check the current version.
