I have trouble running this game from a network drive. If I install the game on it, it works just the first time, only if I click on "Launch game" button. It won´t work any other time. If I copy the game to C: drive and launch it, there´s no trouble. Does anybody know why?

The game just doesn´t load, it doesn´t even show the starting dialog with the resolutions. Maybe that dialog is the problem? Is there any way to avoid that starting dialog?

I know that the easy answer is don´t run the game on a network drive, but I would like to have the game on it like all the others... Any ideas?

Right-click, Run as admin?

I´ve tried both that and tweaking the compatibility options with no luck so far :(

Good thing you mentioned it. ;) Have you checked if it's a permissions issue? Guess you could install it to C: and try copying it to the network drive. Also, UNC path or mapped drive?

It shouldn´t be, copying the installed game as it is from network drive to C: works perfectly...

I´ve tried both ways: Mapping the network drive as "Z:" or just using the "\\Shared folder". So far is the only game that doesn´t work in any of them. That´s why I think there´s something more into it... Any more ideas?

Really thanks!!

WOW!! Really REALLY thanks for this answer!!! I didn´t know anything about the mklink command and it´s awesome!! It has totally solved my issue :)

I´ve made a .bat file with these commandlines: It works perfectly and it keeps everything clean. THANK YOU!!! :D

Cheers and nice implementation.
