So Biofan, the only thing in the game directory will be the X folder and the BAT file? Or am I missing something?

no, there are also the installed files from "CD" (aka. the substituted drive S
.
the problem with the ZIP archive is the included INSTALL.OPT file. there are wrong paths written.
you can look at it with notepad. its a simple text file. the wrong paths (C:\BIOF\ in this case) causes
the game to fail. therefor my fix suggests a complete new "CD-installation".
folder X\ contains the ripped files from CD. and because the game wants a CD inserted, we fake it with the SUBST command, which maps a given path to a new drive letter. in this case drive S:.
after the game is installed we have to fake the CD (mount/subst to letter S: or every other drive letter you used for installation) every time we want to play the game.
this is what the batch file does: substitute folder X\ to drive S: and start the game.
you can use every other path or drives, but then you have to fix the batch file. no big deal tho, but i wanted to give a guide that doesn't mess around much.
so in short you only need X\ and the .BAT from the ZIP. but you have to put it somewhere for later use.
and for convenience its stored in the game installation directory.
hope this makes it more clear for you.

ok, here a little guide for newbies
- to move around use arrow keys or keypad (i recommend the latter)
- RETURN/ENTER to pick up/drop objects
- SPACE to use ready items in left hand or objects
- I for inventory; select an item and click READY to use it with SPACE.
press I to put ready item in inventory.
weapons are hold in right hand, items left
- C for toggle COMBAT MODE
- KEYPAD-5 fires weapon
- J for journal (every time you hear a *BING*, you have a new entry)
- O for options/save/load/exit
- S for save a game
- L for load a game
- R the all-important key in game! :bleh:
MOVEMENT (keypad):
- 7/8/9: move left/forward/right
- 4/-/6: rotate left/right
- 1/2/3: step left/back/right
COMBAT MODE: (rough description)
- hold CTRL and press keypad keys to kick
- 7/8/9 kick high/header/spin kick (a what it may be called)
- 4/-/6 kick middle left/right
- 1/2/3 kick low left/back flip/right
- hold ALT and press keypad keys to punch
- 7/8/9 punch left/above/right
- 4/-/6 punch middle left/right

hope that helps
