Download the newest version of dgvoodoo and copy the 3 DLL Files from MS Folder to the game root DIR.

Hex edit resolution: Go to -> ...\Steam\steamapps\common\ZanZarah\System\zanthp.exe

Look for 20 03 00 00 58 02 (800x600) and change all values to 00 0A 00 00 A0 05 (2560x1440) - see here for other resolutions.

Now go to --> ...\Steam\steamapps\common\ZanZarah\ZanZarah.bat
