Today we make our way to a Dwarven citadel in order to aquire a massive treasure. However the game has other ideas and im forced to download a different version of the game.

Fix can be found here if you have similar issues.
This fix is from WitchyWoman on the Steam Forums.

This Fix works with (GoG version) to stop certain crashes.

If you get crashes whenever certain enemies attack (e.g. Umberhulk or Undead)

1- Open up the spelljam-eng-base.conf file in a text editor (e.g. notepad) it will be in the Spelljammer Pirates of Realmspace base directory.
2 - find the line:
sbtype=sbpro2
3 - change it to:
sbtype=sb16
4 - save the file and this problem should be resolved.


If you get crashes whenever you click loot at the end of a battle

1 - From the Spelljammer Pirates of Realmspace base directory [...] navigate to ...\DOSBOX and double click on DOSBox.exe to open a DOSBox window.
2 - In the DOSBox window type mount c c:\, assuming the Spelljammer Pirates of Realmspace base directory is on your c drive, if it's on another drive (e.g. d) type mount c d:\ instead.
3 - Type c:\ to change to the c drive and now comes the fun part of navigating to the Spelljammer Pirates of Realmspace\GAME\SPELLJAM directory using no white space 8 character limit directory names. Take it directory by directory as you trace the path. Use the cd command to change directory and dir /w to display the contents of the current directory. E.g. If you need to change to the Program Files (x86) directory, you'll have to type something like: cd progra~2. If you end up in the wrong directory type cd .. to go back up one level.
4 - Once you're in the right directory, type SOUND to execute SOUND.EXE.
5 - Hit 7 to change the sound to: LAPC music, Soundblaster Pro Sound Effects
6 - Exit the sound program and you're done
