Russian Steam version seems to contain remnants of some sort of DRM in files mrazik_dir.res, mrazik_vdir.res, and mrazik_cd1_an.res. They do not seem to be active.

Issues unresolved

Game crashes when trying to load a save that was created during a dialog

The game may crash with the error "GAME: Invalid talk node ID."
Don't save during a dialog.

Issues fixed

Game crashes when attempting to load or save

The error message is "CTRL: FindFirstFileEx failed. The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect."
The game assumes maximum Windows path length and only allocates a buffer that is just big enough.
A typical Steam installation of the game has a path length that just exceeds this limit.
Choose a shorter path to install the game to[citation needed]

See Moving Steam Games To Another Drive. For example the path C:\MyGames is shorter than C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam.

Game crashes when playing cutscene video

The error message is "CPSE: Stream open file failed."
Windows 7 and later do not have the Indeo video codecs required to play certain cutscene videos installed. The files, though, do exist on disk.
Manually register ir50_32.dll[1]
  1. Start Command Prompt as an Administrator.
  2. Run the command regsvr32 "%WINDIR%\SysWOW64\ir50_32.dll". If you have 32-bit Windows, replace SysWOW64 with System32.
  3. Click OK on the message box that comes up.

Notes

There appears to be certain security issues with the codec. Unregister the codec when you are done with the game, with the command regsvr32 /u "%WINDIR%\SysWOW64\ir50_32.dll". Don't mind the runtime error that may come up.
