A late prototype of Might and Magic IX for PC, likely dated a few months before release.
Notes
The Cutting Room Floor research
- The prototype was unfortunately supplied with some files missing, most notably not having any world files: As such, the game will hang after starting a new game. A version of the prototype with the final's level files are included in the archive, which makes the game playable, albeit with some serious issues.
- Voice files aren't included, but work if inserted from the final's files.
- Music files aren't included, and don't work if inserted from the final.
- Running the game on a modern Windows OS requires dgVoodoo2 to be playable. No other DirectX wrapper will work correctly.
- A number of files for Legends of Might and Magic, which was developed concurrently and on the same engine, are included.
- The console is enabled and can be accessed with the
`key.
- Godmode is enabled by default.
- The NWC/3DO intro videos are included but don't play.
- If the final's world files are used, a new game will load into a seemingly otherwise-unused test area.
