If there are no log files at all, you are probably not pointed to the correct directory. In a file explorer, navigate to the GOF 2.5 folder and at the top, highlight the full path and past it in a reply. Then I can describe for you how to point the engine startup to that path.

OK, now in file explorer, navigate to find the Maelstrom.exe you want to use on your computer (e.g. DirectX9_64bit\Maelstrom.exe) and right-click Maelstrom, select Create Shortcut. Now right-click the shortcut and replace the Start In: C:\Maelstrom\games\gentlemen-of-fortune-25. Double-click shortcut to test.
You can rename, move and copy that shortcut to wherever you want.
I copied and moved everything to new folders so I would not have a chance of confusing GOF and ERAS locations. I got everything to work before I came back here to see what you had to say.
I would like to thank you for your patience and willingness to help. I have no idea what step I missed or FUBARed.
I am looking forward to playing this game while admiring all of you and your teams hard work.
Thanks again,

Now that I finally had the opportunity to play the game, thanks to your help, it is amazing. Smooth transitions along with good AI. I hope you find your own fix for your recording software. Your video gives a good representation. Actually playing the game shows how much work went into it.
Kudos to you and your team.
