What works
Installs & runs.
Everything seems to work (given graphical limitations - see below).
Tested - main, audio, video, ship flag menus; cut scenes; sailing; ship combat; sword fighting; visiting town.
What does not
1) Unless "Disable shaders" is selected in the video settings, the game becomes unplayable due to graphical issues on the sailing screen (and I couldn't get to other screens because of them)
2) It's quite stuttery in places, presumably due to poor frame rates.
Workarounds
1) Disable shaders in video settings
2) N/A
3) Disable NUMLOCK
What was not tested
More than 15 mins of gameplay
Hardware tested
