I would suggest that you instead Google for 'System Shock Portable', a download which packages the game with a neatly pre-configured version of DOSBox, all set up and ready to go in XP or Vista.

It may be old news for you but since Night Dive seems to be planning to re-release System Shock 1 all downloads regarding System Shock portable had to be deleted. I still have my original CD and DOSBox but then i miss out on the perfect mouse mod and resolution options. I used to keep a backup of SSP but it got deleted and i never thought it would be a problem to get it back again...and now..here i am :/ Is it possible to provide a download link just for the tool without any files from SystemShock? Otherwise i would have to wait until Citadel is ready and playable or Night Dive releases a Sourceport(i dream of something like Descent Rebirth or zDoom)...which could take...YEARS.

SSP will return is some streamlined, non-copyright infringing form (wip name is SS1tool) - I'm already looking into this, hopefully I'll have a test version ready by the end of the week. keep checking the Engineering subforum at systemshock.org.

Looks like ND implemented SSP right into their version. So, it's all good. Only $5.99 right now makes it an automatic buy.

that sounds like ripping off SSP if they're not paid royalties. would encourage boycotting ND if true.

Instabought. So what are the differences between this and the Portable version? Never tried that one, I always played the original only.

OMG! Already bought it. But it seems that only the english version is available(it was french, german and english before). I hope GoG and/or NightDive will also release the missing languages, maybe even the japanese version? Edit: What a great day this is :) Tested it right away with my Netbook and...it runs perfectly fine in 854x480! There seems to be a small problem though....i cannot use the 'a'-key to move left. It was ok when i started but after the Email from rebecca i couldn't move left anymore. I restarted the game and reloaded my savegame but the issue remains. Guess i should open a new thread eh? Thanks to voodoo47, Kolya, Malba Tahan and all of the fine people that kept this alive! You are great! :)

The Enhanced Edition has the French & German languages. You have to go to 'Option' within the game to change to your desired language :)

yes, but the audio is missing, just checked, and the german and french voiceoves have indeed been removed. will let Night Dive know.
Could this be a sign that SS1 is on it's way to GOG? <br /> <br />Sources: <br />https://www.systemshock.org/index.php?topic=211.0 <br /> <a href='http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=145663' target='_blank'><br />http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=145663</a>
I've heard so much about System Shock 2, but I feel like I can't play System Shock 2 before playing System Shock 1!

I also would like to be able to get the original version of System Shock. I never bought it but got it from a friend after he finished the game, I believe it was the CD-ROM version but I am not sure. May have been the Floppy version. Anyway, obviously I had to give it back. <br />I looked at the portable version: 'System Shock Portable', short SSP. It actually includes the original installer. Inside the 7z archive, look for RESINST. I haven't tried it yet, but I assue it should work – for those who want the original unmodified version, which should be stable using an official (unmodified) DOSBox on any supported operating system (Linux, OS X, Windows, ...) <br /> <br />So, until SS1 is available on GoG, enjoy either SSP or the original CD-ROM version you get from SSP. <br /> <br />@GoG: you really should do something about this situation! Make SS1 available!
