Install & play guide:
- Mount the disc image. You will need the utility for mounting disc image files, like WinCDEmu, UltraISO, Alcohol 52%/Alcohol 120% or Daemon Tools Lite
- Install the game (if autorun doesn't work - simply launch the installation from Setup.exe inside the disc)
- Also it is recommended to install DirectX from the disc (if you're using Windows 10 - enable DirectPlay, read this or this guide how to do it)
- You will need to install Nvidia PhysX Legacy Drivers for the correct work of the game, since the game is using PhysX engine
- After you installed the game - install NoDVD (simply copy LTCG-TPGame.exe from the archive and put it in

directory and find LTCG-TPGame.exe. Right click on LTCG-TPGame.exe - Properties - Compatibility - Set "Run this app in compatibility mode with Windows XP" and "Run as administrator" - Launch the game and play. If the game doesn't work in compatibility mode with Windows XP - try to launch it in compatibility mode with other version of Windows (Win98/ME, Win2000, Vista, etc.)
Notes:
- If the installation doesn't start - try to launch Setup.exe in compatibility mode with old version of Windows (98, 2000 or XP)
- NoDVD is required for the launch because the game is using SecuROM DRM protection, which doesn't work on modern systems. That NoDVD "breaks" DRM protection and allows the game to work on modern systems
- If first NoDVD doesn't work - try to use alternative NoDVD
- The game is using PhysX engine, so you will need to install Nvidia PhysX Legacy Drivers for the correct work of the game.
- If you notice that the game is working slow - delete Nvidia PhysX Legacy Drivers and install PhysX 7.09.13 from the disc (usually it installs automatically at the end of game installation)
- It is recommended to install old versions of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for the correct work of the game
- Also it is recommended to install RAD Video Tools and K-Lite Codec Pack for the correct work of in-game videos
