Let me know
Odd the chapter change is what does it.. Ill ask around my oldgames channels to see if anyone happens to have it installed too.. if not Ill just install it and find ya something
Just at the start of chapter 2 where Thara is walking on the balcony ledge from left to right.. crossing a sort of wobbly stone - right after the first "column".
The game freezes right there and comes up with weird error boxes.
Xider support is in german and are really bad at reporting back...
Edit:
Nevermind.. I overcame that obsticle by lowering graphic details etc, BUT I'm having a lot of freezes-up at specific points in the game.
Right now it's trying to enter the kitchen elevator.. GRRR
I've tried lowering details even more and the resolution with no luck so far.
Has anyone here played the game on a Vista or XP machine without errors?
Haven't even finished chapter 2, since I can't get into the elevator there.
I really think the support for this game stinks... they need to come up with a fix over at Xider Games.
The german forum we can use there are just for "talking" about their games.. no support or anything! What's that all about?!
I found a log file hidden deep in the maps, that said something about couldn't find english translation file...?
Edit:
Nevermind - I caved in and installed it on my XP partition.
Gotten to chapter 4 with no errors or freezes so far. :rolleyes:
But can you use savegames from XP?
I added both the sav and png files for chap. 4 and 5
Savegames
Actually, I have just finished it and it was great
It absolutely calls for Ankh 3... although Deck13 haven't updated anything on their web since 2006, so not sure, if it comes at all.
Maybe you need to rename them to one of your already savegames?
I really don't know why they don't work. I have never done this myself before, so I have no clue.
In case it's because it's a rar file, I recompressed them into an exetutable file.
So Right Click and Save As...
SaveGames .exe
And as a Zip file:
SaveGames .zip
This time I could play it all way through - was actually fast to do, cuz you already know what to do. Took me less than 15 minutes.
It was only the first 2 chapter, that I played that fast, lol
And yes you can do it that fast, if you know exactly what to do.
DRIVE_Letter:\Documents and Settings\_your_account_name_\Application Data\Ankh - Heart of Osiris\save\
You think if I compress that whole save folder + the settings.ini file, it would work?
I know it didn't when I tried copying my saved files from Vista.
Some of the folders like Application Data might be hidden.
We got it working - Thank goodness :P
