Hi everyone!
I have a bit of trouble launching reborn on my Win7. I installed yuri and it went perfect, then I downloaded reborn 2.0 and 2.1 installed them and got black screen but with music.

I found somewhere on this site something about ddraw.dll in russian saying that without it game gives you video. I cut the ddraw.dll out of my game directory and it actually started up.

I played for a while and noticed some strong errors - There were no building, shooting sounds or voice messages, also - when I paused the game, I couldnt get back to the game as there were no resume button. It was also like that for any options menu that i accessed from pause menu.
But today, the game just doesnt start up anymore, and it gives me message: Failed to initialize, please reinstall.

So - whats wrong with my game?! And is there any way I can fix it? I really want to play it, as I think it is great mod from what I saw within those few hours of playtime.
