FINALLY done all the re-encoding. The accelogo.vob works just fine for me.
One thing that doesn't work so fine, though better than nothing, is that before any dialogue choice options become available, the screen goes black. I can live with this, but it's a bit annoying. Is there anything that can be done about it?

the blank screen is normal, With the access.logo so you get a blue sky screen first before the overseer grey banner logo starts.

Nice to hear that someone is using my tools. If that is what you did.
The blue sky plays just fine for me as well, maybe you should try reencoding it. If it still doesn't work I can upload my version, but I'm holiday right now so it will have to wait until we get back home.

I've had to put the game on hold till you get back as I have problems at the chasm & cannot continue with it.

Longcat, I did indeed use your toolkit. Thanks so much. The game will run now, and so far so good, no problems except for the screen going black before any dialogue choices. I can put up with it, but it is a bit annoying.
I'm replaying The Pandora Directive first, then I'll tackle playing Overseer again.

Have you made any progress with this? We need the DVD version of the game!

It has been brought up multiple times, I think for now this is a dead project with GOG focusing on the EA releases. Hopefully it will get higher on their queue (if it even is in the first place) in the future.

I bumped the Overseer thread in the general forum, didn't seem to generate much interest for the DVD version :(

Longcat: snip
Are the video files on the DVD in .VOB format or do you have to convert them first? I'd be OK with loading up the CD version of the game and playing the raw .VOB files on my PS3 while I play through the game on my laptop (this is what I did for the WCIV DVD) and it worked pretty good.

Edit - answered my own question, videos can just be renamed to .VOB with the handy tool provided by longcat. Many thanks, will play through this soon with GOG on a laptop and playing the videos on my PS3 w/ full screen picture and surround sound.
