It says Youtube at the top of the black Youtube screen, but no arrow or anything to start the game. I am not a member of Youtube, maybe that's why it doesn't work for me. > another link (the official one) http://www.brokensword25.com/ When I click on the above link it goes to the same screen that I downloaded from Gamershell which was the link I got from the post from rms here, but it was http://www.brokensword25.com/downloads/vollversion.htm - If you use that link you will see what I mean. Both links are the same general screen but each Downloads screen has different links to click on. This is confusing. As both links go to the same main screen, but Download sections and where you are supposed to click is not the same. I must be doing something wrong but I don't know what. I tried quite a few times to get things to work, but I still just get German. I clicked on http://www.brokensword25.com/ - in the first section under "Downloads" (Multilingual patch) its the same patch I downloaded before which didn't work. Maybe you could tell me which section and which link you downloaded on http://www.brokensword25.com/ and which other files you downloaded and which links and where did you put the files? did you install the patch and the game in "Programs" ? Are you using Win XP or windows 7? I am using Xp. Mary
