I am a video game player for long time the first home game system came out to the first Arcade video games come out. Years later i saw the first dragon's lair in a arcade on a
cd platform then later Dragon's lair 2 came out on a cd platform then years later i found DL 3D for windows pc. I was surprised to see DL 3d on a pc platform it was lots of fun an lots of rooms to see an play, and the fun arcade game was space ace then later years the game out on pc platform. Video games of all platforms can be real fun to play.. :o)

Instead of going through all the trouble of getting the PC version to run I'd highly recommend that you get the Gamecube version and use the emulator called Dolphin. It runs great in Dolphin and you are able to increase the resolution so it looks great.

Running the game on Windows 10:
1. Download the Spanish Fixed EXE and the German Fixed EXE #2.
https://gamecopyworld.eu/games/pc_dragon_lair_3d.shtml
2. Extract "Setupreg.exe" from the German .rar archive to the game's /bin folder (if you can't see it, turn on "show hidden folders").
3. Run Setupreg.exe - Install - Close
4. Extract "DL3D.exe" from the SPANISH .rar archive to the game's /bin folder, overwriting the original file.
This is where it gets weird. I renamed the Spanish DL3D.exe to "DL3DorigSP.exe" and it works (although the language is set to German everytime I start the game). I'm not sure why, but renaming it to "DL3D" or even "DL3Dorig" didn't work.
This method is not 100% sure, I've been fiddling around with all available No-CD-s, patches and fixes, and this is what I got.
I can confirm tho, that using Creative ALchemy solves the missing music issue.

To make the game run on Win 10: find from GameCopyWorld the Spanish patch-fix to replace DL3D.exe (won't force Spanish language, don't worry) and use also Creative Alchemy Universal https://community.pcgamingwiki.com/files/file/28-creative-alchemy-universal/ if you want music/cutscenes/movies audio. That's it.

For those of you who are struggling with this I racked my brains trying to get this to work even bought the cd version of ebay and was having the same issue getting to work in Windows 10 64. Today I managed to resolve this I renamed the dl3d exe to DL3Dorig.exe. I then downloaded the following 2 files and extracted them to the bin folder. DragonsLair3Dv1.0NoCDPatchEng and DragonsLair3Dv1.0.151.0NoCDFixedexeGer. Hey presto the game works and luckily despite 1 of the fixes being German the game is still in English.

"update" for the life of me I cant get it going tried many things no cd crack ended up with my thought is that the game is in 32 bit and the required patches and fixes run on 32 bit while i am running 64 bit would've loved to play this again but decided not to try any further if anyone gets it going on a 64 bit win 10 please leave a comment thanks

Nice looking game but it does not work,
I have tried ruining it straight up and then with the no cd crack,
but even with the crack i just keep getting this error:
"Entry Point Not Found "
The procedure entry point _AIL_set_Stream_volume@8 could not be located in the dynamic link library C:\ProgramFiles\(x86)\Ubi Soft Dragonstone\Dragon's Lair 3D\bin\DL3D.exe"
Any ideas would be appreciated!
