Topic on Talk:NYR: New York Race

Hi, I own the original retail CD release so my experience might be different. All I really had to do was set compatibility mode on the setup program and replace the exe as a way to circumvent the DRM - won't launch otherwise. After that I could play the game normally. I am not sure what you mean by these "two animations"? I believe these are the intro cinematics, and I assume they required the Indeo 5 codec as the setup warns you. I haven't bothered to install these codecs because I assumed they won't work at all. As these intros play, i get black screen but audio keeps playing - however intro is skippable and you should be at the yellow menu screen.

My guess is that you installed the Indeo 5 codecs and they screwed something up? Other than that, I have no idea. Sorry. Other than that I can suggest messing around with graphic drivers settings and trying to source a different copy of the game - the original definitely has DRM.
