I did everything the guide told me to do and when I try to run an error message pops up saying that
"Failed to initialize Open GL"
Does this game support DirectX Or software rendering?

Hi,
This error message implies that you do not have the latest/correct graphics drivers installed.
The game does not support software rendering, because this way it will be very slow, and neither it does support DirectX, because it has a terrible API and is not available on macOS, which is the main target platform.
Unfortunately sometimes it is not easy find the working video drivers for laptops, but without the hardware info I could not help you.

Google says different Inspiron 1440 editions have different GPUs. Generally the one used is GMA 4500.
Dell offers a very old one (

Perhaps it would work.

It is, but will require rewriting or patching the engine and recompiling it. I do not remember exactly what you could change though.

You could do that, but by default nscripter, onscripter and all the other forks only support 4:3 aspect resolutions: 640x480, 800x600 and probably some others.
