Install & play guide for English version:

• 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. Or extract the files from ISO image with WinRAR or similar tool
• Install the game. It is recommended to install the game not in default path, but in some other, non-system folder, like C:/Games/UK Truck Simulator. The installation path should have ONLY the English symbols!
• After you installed the game - install the cumulative patch v1.32 for English version
• Open the UK Truck Simulator/bin/win_x86 directory and find game.exe and uktrucks.exe. Right-click on both exe-files -> 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 (Windows 7, Vista, etc.)

All versions of the game are DRM-Free (except the Russian release), simply install & play

Notes:

• If the installation doesn't start - try to launch Setup.exe in compatibility mode with old version of Windows (98, 2000 or XP)
• It is recommended to install all versions of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable and NET Framework for the correct work of the game. Also it is recommended to install K-Lite Codec Pack for the correct work of in-game audio and video
• The game works on DirectX 9, so if you're using Windows 8, 8.1, 10 or 11 - you need to enable DirectPlay: Go to Control Panel, and select 'Programs'. Select 'Turn Windows features on and off', click on 'Legacy Components' and check the box 'DirectPlay'. Select OK, once the installation is done, restart your computer
• The game also supports OpenGL API, so if you have any troubles with DirectX 9 API, you can switch to OpenGL in the launcher (desktop shortcut or uktrucks.exe). On some video cards, when the game runs with OpenGL renderer, all textures have blue or white color; if you experience that glitch - switch to DirectX 9 renderer
• Developers also distributed the game as a shareware, multilingual demo version v1.32 with 12 languages was available for download on the official website. That demo version has 1 hour trial period, but looks like if you replace the executables of demo version for DRM-Free executables of full version, you can remove 1 hour trial limit
• All versions of the game are DRM-Free, except the Russian release. If you cannot manage to mount ISO image of the game, you can simply extract the files from ISO image with WinRAR, 7-Zip or another archiver tool, and install the game from Setup.exe
• Be careful, Russian version of the game was protected with StarForce DRM! StarForce DRM drivers can ruin your system, especially if you use 32-bit variant of Windows, make sure to use NoCD before the first launch of the game! Also, the official Russian release cannot be patched, since there were no patches for Russian release

• If you get "sys_no_graphics" error - run the launcher (desktop shortcut or uktrucks.exe) and check Advanced tab, make sure that you selected your graphics card in settings, also try to select the other renderer. If you play on laptop, try to switch between discrete and integrated graphics cards
