Age of Mythology

What works

Installation (after downloading pidgen.dll and mfc42.dll and placing both in the system32 folder. I also used a no-cd crack)

Everything else not otherwise stated.

What does not

Sound is distorted, and occasionally a sound or piece of it will continue to repeat after it should have finished. Speech in the campaign cinematics is difficult to impossible to make out.

Fog of war will not work after the game is started up until graphics detail is changed. Buildings and landscape features within the fog of war will be shadowed, but the land itself shows no difference, and when land is partially revealed, the entire square is shown.

Pregame cinematics cause the game to freeze/crash, or are not shown at all

Cursor image seems to disappear when in high detail mode, being replaced with a beige patch the same shape as the image.

Additional Comments

None of the issues I've encountered strongly effect gameplay, however with them, the game runs far from "flawlessly", which is why I've given it a silver rating.
