Where to get the assets?

I bought the linux version of Overture a long time ago. I'm looking to
get a Windows version for experimenting with this code project.
It's available at steam and direct2drive. Is the assets the same?
Which one would work best with the released code?

Assets should be same for all release. I am unsure if D2D does some encrypting or not though.

Boxed copy, steam and our own store all have the same assets!

you should probably go with steam as d2d overture is old and not updated.

RE: Where to get the assets?

Just about this: I've finally (after almost 3 hours of the last while sorting out the project in VS2010 and organising everything and so on) gotten a build working. Currently it's produdcing a FATAL ERROR of "unable to load PointLight2D"- I'm guessing this one of the textures from the game. So just to check, do I need a full installation of Overture on my computer to run Penumbra.exe properly?

It's just that I haven't installed any of the Penumbra games since I reformatted a while back, and I'd rather double-check before starting up the download on Steam. But it would make plenty of sense though. Tongue

Tzajof: You are probably just not running the exe from the right place.

RE: Where to get the assets?

Ah, alright then. Where would you suggest I run the .exe from? I'm currently running it from my Debug Build folder which is placed alongside my project folders- that is, I have my build folder, dependencies folder, HPL folder, and OALWrapper and Overture side by side along with my Solution file for VS2010.

Drop the executable in your Overture game files, or copy your game files to the redist folder.
