This patch fix the White Screen lockup when starting the game and use dgVoodoo2 as wrapper to fix graphics issues.
It's only for the original physical version of the game (NOT GOG/DIGITAL).
It works with all CD and DVD versions.
Note: Some DVD versions are just CD rebranded on a DVD, look the note below to identify them.

FOR DVD USERS :
---------------
Note: for CD versions ignore this note !

If you have the very rare real DVD version who use DVD setup (the one who don't have cd0, cd1... folders), make sure to edit the setup.reg.
Change "Install"="FLA" to "Install"="DVD".
Do that only if your version is the DVD one, CD based versions don't have to change anything.
Notes: Some DVD versions are just CD rebranded on a DVD, for thoses you don't have to change anything.
The real DVD version, have only one folder "datas" with everything in it.

FOR LANGUAGE CHANGES :
----------------------
Note: if you play in english UK you can ignore that note.

If you have a different language than English, make sure to edit the setup.reg.
Change "gbr" from "LanguageST" and "Language" to the value matching the language folder.
Some possibles values :
 - "fra" for french
 - "ita" for italian
 - "gbr" for english UK
Don't put a value who not exist, the game will crash.
You can get the existing values by browsing in game folder to :
 - cd0\datas\loc\text or cd0\datas\loc\voix (for CD versions).

KNOWN ISSUES :
--------------

Althought the game is now fully playable from beginning to end there is just 2 issues related to the fix.

   => Just use registry file and atlantis4.cfg it already setup the game in "HD Mode" and with the language you want.
 - Game freeze if we try to exit it (you gonna see Credits and if you press ESC key it freeze).
   => Just do Alt+F4 and don't click on the exit menu.
