Hard way:

1. Setup

• Have an original disc of the game inserted into your disc drive.

or

• Have a disc image (iso, nrg, etc.)

  • If you have an iso file you can just mount it using windows.

  • If you have some other file that is not an iso, you have to use 3rd party tools to achieve the same. 

    • (Recommended) Daemon Tools Lite

    • WinCDEmu

• Mount the image by right clicking the file -> Open with -> Windows Explorer. 

(double clicking the file might work too)

2. Installation

• Retail Version: 

  • Run InstalTT.exe.

• Special Edition: 

  • Run Setup.exe.

• Install it normally.

3. DGVoodoo

• To get the game running you'll need DGVoodoo. You'll find it here.

  • Download the latest stable version. (should be a zip file)

  • Extract the zip file and copy the following files into the directory where you have installed the game in.

    • dgVoodooCpl.exe

    • Inside the MS\x86 folder:

      • D3D8.dll

      • D3DImm.dll

      • DDraw.dll

4. Patch & start the game

   • Retail Version: 

     • Before you're able to start the game you'll need to patch the game's original executable first. Download this file here.

       • Extract it and go inside the folder named with the language you installed the game in.

         • Copy and paste TonicTrouble.exe inside the folder where you have the  game installed in and overwrite it. You're now able to start the game using the shortcut created on your desktop back in the installation.

   • Special Edition:

     • You should already be able to start the game using the shortcut created on your desktop back in the installation.

   • If a shortcut has not been created or you deleted it for some reason, then create a shortcut of:

     • • Retail Version: 

         • InstalTT.exe

       • Special Edition: 

         • UbiSetup.exe

       • Right click on the file -> Create shortcut.

     • Right click the shortcut -> Properties -> Add -PLAY TONICT at the very end of the line in Target box.

       • Opionally rename the shortcut and give it an icon and copy it somewhere you like.

5. (Optional) Configure DGVoodoo

• You can re-configure the resolution and switch between Windowed-, and Fullscreen mode using dgVoodooCpl.exe.

  • Choose between Fullscreen or Windowed in the General tab. (I like to check Center app window using Windowed mode)

  • Change your desired Resolution in the DirectX tab.

  • Play around with some other settings too if you like.
