Issues fixed

Black screen or "Initialization failed. Resources corrupted or other read data error" error on launch

This error occurs because the game checks a remote server for files that no longer exist.
Block DeepBlack.exe in firewall[2][3]
  1. Make a firewall rule preventing DeepBlack.exe making outbound connections.
Launch game disconnected from the internet[4]
Internet connection can be re-enabled once in main menu.

Game resources are damaged error followed by exit to desktop 5 minutes after launch

The latest Steam patch officially integrates a broken community fix for the game.
Uncomment lines in settings.lua[5]
  1. Open the settings.lua file in <path-to-game>\globals with a text editor.
  2. Remove the dashes at the start of lines 96 and 97 so that they look like this:
 NetFileURL = "http://www.biart7.com/steamok.txt";
 NetFileSkipIfNoConnection = 1;
  1. Use one of these methods to launch the game.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/204760/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (204760) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
