Hey,

I've got it fixed weird enough I could install it on a other pc with windows xp so I put the .exe file on floppy put it into the directory on other pc also copied the critter and master.dat files to the map and the data map made a .cfg file took a patch over it and then cracked it now it seems to work

Scotty the Great Paragon Member # 1 Member Rated:	posted October 27, 2003 16:17 Very creative. I was going to suggest setting the compatibility for the *.exe file to Windows 98 and trying it; that might've worked too. Oh well, at least you got it working now

Hey,

Yea it was kinda weird I installed it a while ago and it worked, but now the compatibility wouldn't work also I have tried that. I've heard about more people having complains with it maybe it just depends on the stuff you have inside the computer

Scotty the Great Paragon Member # 1 Member Rated:	posted October 28, 2003 10:08 More than likely. And the compatibility thing does have issues, as in it won't work for some games no matter what you do. For instance, I still can't get Mechwarrior 2 to work on XP

CaliberOnzo Wandering Hero Member # 136 Member Rated:	posted October 29, 2003 03:08 Hey, Maybe you should try the stuff that I did Maybe it works Cracks can fix it they are illegal normally but when you actually have the game they aren't anymore.
