OK, that "orange" text is most likely your problem now. You have to apply either the LAA or the 4Gig Patch to the SH4.exe file that is in your modded game folder (D:\SH4). Probably what you have to do though is write-enable it. Navigate into your D:\SH4 folder, and find the SH4.exe file. Right-click on it, and choose Properties from the context menu at the bottom. That will open a dialog to the "General" tab. Toward the bottom of that is an Attributes sections with a tick box for "Read-only". Make certain that is clear, if not, click on it to clear the checkmark. While in that Properties dialog, also click on the "Compatibility" tab. You might have to alter some of the settings in there for your computer to be able to properly address the display and other aspects of the game. An example picture on my Win11 machine is this
That 2nd window "High DPI Settings..." is from clicking on the button at the bottom "Change high DPI settings". You are almost guaranteed to have to use that. You most likely will not need that "Program DPI" for scaling at the top of that window. You might or might not have to use "Run this program as an administrator". The "Disable fullscreen optimization is not always needed, but might be, and the Compatibility section may or may not be needed. You will have to experiment, since no two computers are exactly alike... Let us know how you get along.
