https://www.bzpower.com/topic/32703-bionicle-heroes-myths-of-voya-nui-21-release

This game requires a manual installation but i can't i can't find the installer and there is no MS-Word file or Notepad file

I've already tested bionicle.exe it did not work, what else can i do without messing it up?

The files listed are
bionicle.exe
bionicle.ico
bionicle_nobloom.exe
bionicle_win2k.exe
and a bunch of folders with resources.

Here's a bit more clarity i found I'm on a windows 11 so i don't have those options nor any older computers for tests. However the file giving me results was bionicle_nobloom.exe  and bionicle_win2k.exe with two errors. Code Execution Error d3dx9_30.dlll was not found and a system error that XINPUT1_1.dll was not found.
The errors even claim that re-installing will fix it but i'm attempting a fresh installation.

I just checked the zip folder and not a single file was ever deleted after extracting.

Found the problem. Windows 11 doesn't include Direct X and doesn't have Direct Play enabled by default.

We can close this thread here.
