Neuro (2006) black game view after loading a saved game

I've been trying to play this game and I run into the problem that every time when I load a saved game, the entire game world around me shows solid black. The HUD elements are still visible, and the game is not frozen judging from how footstep sounds are coming through when I move and such. I have tried basic things I could think of, changing the graphics options in the game, changing them when the everything is black, running the game in different Windows compatibility modes. Nothing has helped.

I'm running the game on Windows 11 with Geforce RTX 4060.

I thought I'm the only one playing it! I completed it less than a week ago!
I had the same problem but ONLY on the first training mission. I was looking for a fix as well as I was afraid it's like that whole game. But no - after training loading worked fine.
I'm on Win10 and nvidia.

My introduction to the game was a lengthy video by a youtuber going by Tehsnakerer some years ago. Another sizable youtuber called Civvie11 covered it more recently, which finally got me to give the game a try myself.

I was waiting it from 2004 or 2005 when it was under development but shown here and there.

Completeled the game now. I noticed there's also an issue where some of the save files end up corrupted so the game always crashes to desktop when you try to load. I would say that happens maybe 10-20% of the time when saving. At least I can fight that by making multiple spread out saves.

I wonder if they at least fixed the softlock caused by the english translation.

You have to physically block an NPC in order to trigger the next event in a level. I believe it is caused by the difference in diaolouge length between english and russian. Aside from that, the game does have a tendency to corrupt your savefile while saving...

At least the devs seems to listen to feedback
