Status : Online | The 'wwoowww' thread inspired me to try to DL this game again, and this time instead of 12 hours, it took 6 so I could DL overnight! The game installs and runs great for the most part. The first few minutes had me laughing already! This is definately not a game to rush through, the "trying-out-stuff" part is too funny to miss, such great humor and sarcasm!
My questions:
1. The game works beautifully EXCEPT sound...is sound vital to gameplay? I love to read and don't mind the silence, but didn't know if I'd be missing vital clues. When I run the game, I get an error box saying:
Unable to initialize your audio hardware. [Problem: Failed to init digital sound driver]
I click the OK box and it runs, just without sound.
2. Is the game playable throughout without the patch? I downloaded the patch, installed as directed, but when I try to run ithe game using ACWIN.EXE as directed, I get the following error message:
Error: You must create and save a game first in the Room Editor before you can use this engine.  Unable to find 'ac2game.dat' in C:\Documents and Settings\Gamaholic\Desktop)
I have no idea what this means, but when I click OK the game does not run.
Any ideas? ??? Thanks!
That which makes one happy is not a waste of time
