Additional Comments

Sound works using OSS driver in Wine. When using ALSA driver, only the first intro movie has sound, then it gets quiet. Copy protection works out of the box (game version 1.45a distributed in Poland by CDPROJECT). Patching to 1.66a makes copy protection stop working, and requires a no-CD patch. It is essential to install ISScript.msi (available on the DVD) before starting autorun, otherwise the game fails to install. On Windows the user will get an error message box ("The InstallScript engine is missing from this machine."), while on Wine it fails quietly and the user has no clue why it failed.
