My Oni Game does crash after the Intro! (Vista) Help!

Hello There! I was a big fan of this game back when I played it on my ps2. Now I did buy the game for my computer! (Windows Vista) But it does crash everytime after the Intro! ''Oni.exe funktioniert nicht mehr!''

What can I do, to solve that problem? Please help me someone!

I also wanted to ask if It's possible to play that game with my controller! Its an xbox PC Controller!

Welcome!  I'm glad you were able to find a secondhand copy of the game.  If you find the right third-party software, you can map your Xbox controller input so it behaves like key presses and mouse movements.  I don't have any software recommendations since I'm on a Mac and don't know what people use for that in Windows.  I don't recall anyone doing this before, so I don't know how well a controller works with PC Oni.  Since Oni was originally designed as a PC game, I think you'll find that the game plays better with mouse and keyboard than with a console controller.

As far as fixing your crash, you need the Daodan DLL, either by itself or as part of the Anniversary Edition:

Thank you for the fast answer! @Iritscen

So, I've visited your page and did dloaded the Attachment: 00020DaodanWin_14.zip from that site! I opened it after Download with winrar and What I have to do from there?

I did also delete Oni again from my Computer, to start from scratch!

Please see the instructions on that Mod Depot page -- you have to place the files alongside Oni.exe (no need to reinstall Oni).  Let me know if you have any more questions.

I did follow the directions on that page and did replace the oni.exe with the one from the mod depot page, but it still doesnt pass the intro!?

This is a folder with links (Verknüpfungen). No "real" game files.
Right-click Oni link file > Properties (Eigenschaften) > Open file path (Dateipfad öffnen). There you will see the real files.

You should delete the old binkw32.dll and then rename binkw32 (2).dll to binkw32.dll
