Patrician III: Rise of the Hanse Tips

When you first start this title, you will be presented with a video hardware configuration utility.

The game itself uses 3 different hardcoded video resolutions -- 640x480 for the intro video, 800x600
for the game menu, and the game-play itself can be these resolutions or bigger (as set in the game
Options menu). For the game to start, you  * must test the 640x480 and 800x600 modes *  (at least)
and then click OK when testing is finished. If you fail to do so, the game will not start, and you will
need to manually run the video hardware configuration utility again. The path to this utility is...

linux -->    ~/.cxgames/Steam/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common/patrician iii/P3Setup.exe

OSX -->   ~/Library/Application Support/Crossover/Bottles/Steam/Bottles/Steam/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Patrician III/patrician iii/P3Setup.exe

You can use the 'Run Command' function in CXG to navigate to, and execute the P3Setup.exe program manually if needed.
