- Either use USB attached CD/DVD drive, or mount Image via cdemu (cdemu load 0 Anno1601.cue)
- Install game as usual
- Apply NoCD patch
- CD still required for playing with music and videos
Additional Information:
I've only tried the CD version, which I made a .cue/.bin image of and mounted it with cdemu.Image was not found as CD, so I applied a NoCD patch which allowed me to start the Game anyway.
Although the game works fine without CD, if you want to play with movies and music the image still needs to be mounted.
Game comes in three resolutions 640x480, 800x600, and 1024x768 so choose which fits best to your desktop.
There's also a GoG version which will likely work perfectly fine as well and removed the need of any patches and images.
