Windows
The editor (Toolkit.exe) has ActControl DRM, which renders unactivated copies unusable without a DRM-patch as of autumn 2022. The base game is not affected by this.

Essential improvements

Skip intro video

Move, rename or delete files
  1. Go to <path-to-game>\languages\russian\video.
  2. Move, rename or delete the files intro.bik and logo.bik.

Notes

The English localization does not use a folder of its own, merely alternate versions of relevant language-specific files in the exact same locations and with the same filenames.
