Default Problem solved... so far!

First of all thanks Hunvagy for the quick respons.

But a weird thing happened when I altered the reg file. Next time I entered the game, firstly I noticed when I wanted to start a new campaign no name was suggested (ref. cmdr. Bernhardt). Secondly, when I entered the inventory (the book) all sorts of things were in there and not just the standard sword and potion. Finally, I entered the book where the men are listed and the screen whent black!
But nonetheless I reinstalled the game and used your technique on the allready existing reg file and now the sounds seems to work during battle - excellent :thumbs:

For those that might be interested, here is how I made the game work on my PC with help from hunvagy, the fifth horseman and all the commentaries in this thread..

1) DL full version via link in this thread.
2) Unzip all at the same time to the, by winrar, suggested folder.
3) Mount image with Daemon Tools (or similar program) and select open folder (NOT run warstart.exe).
4) Drag content of image/folder back to folder on pc.
5) Follow this link: http://www.abandonia.com/vbullet/showthread.php?t=20976 and do as brilliantly suggested by The Fifth Horseman. Afterwards (if not allready there) drag the whshr.bat file into the game dir.
6) Double click bat file and install (using the guidelines suggested on the main page http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/26...orned+Rat.html).
7) To make sure the sound works during battle sequence open the whshr.reg file in notepad, which is located where you choose to install the game. In notepad make sure the paths (@) leads to where your actual installation is located on your pc. Afterwards doubleclick the reg file and accept.

Hope somebody will benefit from my experience and if something is unclear in my explanation please comment.

Following these instructions the game works, but is missing all the text. I have the starting cinematics and sound, and main menu, but all the sub menu and game text is missing... any ideas?

There isn't any ENG folder so Fifth's batch code won't run properly. You can either modify the code yourself, or simply download the batch file that has already been properly configured on the game's page.
