vesselle Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 (edited) are you referring to the mod of D1 for NWN, called "Lord of Terror"? i have it running with no problems, and am running version 1.06. if that's not what you are referring to, then please elaborate as to how you installed Diablo1, where you installed it and what happens when you attempt to execute it. i have winxp, sp2, all essential windows updates, fairly new drivers for vid & sound card and don't need to use compatibility mode. the version of diablo1 i'm running is v1.09.

Pop Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 (edited) I have a friend that wants to play BG2 with the original NPC portraits from the first game (original Imoen, Jaheira, etc.) is there a mod out there that makes that possible? Or can you do that easily through coding... or what? He refuses to play it without it (he likes the original game, and he's unnerved by the updates) and I want to live vicariously through my friend who's playing the game for the first time.

Darth Drabek Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 I think some people use that Shadowkeeper utility to do that, but I don't have first-hand experience. Some others might here, though. I've always wanted to learn it because it seemed like it had cool possibilities, but never took the time to pick it up. baby, take off your beret everyone's a critic and most people are DJs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyCrimson Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Re: Diablo1 XP Pro, SP2 (MS's firewall stuff is disabled), installed on C drive, using a DVD-RW drive, blah blah. Installed it - it ran. Patched it to 1.09. Made a chr. Went to bnet, made an account, was logged in to the lobby. Tried to create a game and it crashed to desktop. Re-booted. Then every time I tried to click play it would give me a big red and gold box saying "Please insert the CD-ROM." Uninstalled it, installed, patched - doesn't even run the first time at all, now, just says "Please insert the Cd-ROM". Another box says it can't read the main .mpq file. Repeat several times. Hit the computer. Tried another disc (I have 2 copies of the game). Same thing. Give up. PC sees the CD fine, I can go into Explorer and read the contents of the CD etc. Compatiability didn't do anything. “Things are as they are.

I'm having the same problem with Diablo, and Deus Ex, and System Shock 2. I think it's something with XP. I never used to encounter this. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!

LadyCrimson Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Some people can get it to run just fine in XP...but yeah, I'm sure it's an XP thing, for whatever reasons.

Pop Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 I never really got into Arcanum. It was a bit too funky. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I found it kind of fell apart after the wonderful character creation process Once you give it a chance, there's really a lot of roleplaying opportunity in the thing. Definitely an imbalanced game, though. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 That is what I thought after playing it for a while. After a stint with Arcunam I went to Neverwinter Nights 1. Still playing that game. Going to give Dragonshard a peek though.

Judge Hades Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Arcanum was good and well worth the money I paid for it. It had some very cool ideas and an unique setting. Someone should port Arcanum over to NWN 2. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
