JoWood Productions World War 3: Black Gold Logo
Posted on Sep 19, 2011

I have a problem with World War 3 Black Gold. I've just installed it on my PC. I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and the game won't start. I double click on the WW3.exe, small black screen appears and disappears and World War III Setup appears after that. No matter which resolution I test I cannot start the game. If I click on OK without testing the resolution, it just asks me if I really want to start the game on an un-tested resolution. If I test the resolution and click OK, nothing happens... at all. Like if the OK button was just a decoration. Help me, please, I really want to replay this old RTS classic.

I had the same issue and resolved it by downloading the World war 3 black gold 1.2 Patch - install this and you should be fine. I will still ask you to select a resolution but it will actually let you now.

I got mine from here
