[TNT] Sonic Goo Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Speaking of retro gaming - does anyone know if it's possible to get Grim Fandango to work on XP? Officially it shouldn't work, but I'm wondering if there's a way anyway... Quote
Jacques Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 After few research, This game seems to be the only LucasArt games who doesn't run on ScummVm. I've installed DosBox a Dos emulator with i can play, I play - Lemmings - Worms - Dune 2 - Colonization - Superski2 Last Holidays I've almost done Indiana Jones and the Fate Of Atlantis but I've had a damn problem at the end of game Quote
Genesis Posted April 28, 2005 Author Posted April 28, 2005 Hi, goo... you gotta get this patch -> ftp://ftp.lucasarts.com/patches/pc/Gfupd101.exe ...and then, in your game directory, try to run the game's .exe in windows 98 compatibility mode. Just in case, even if I'm sure you know that already, right click the .exe file and click "properties", then "compatibility", and tick the checkbox called "run in Win 98 compatibility mode". It should work. I've taken a look at several forums, and this solutions debugs the game almost every time. Quote
[TNT] Sonic Goo Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 I think you can also do it with the item in the programs menu - anyway, thanks! Quote
Genesis Posted April 29, 2005 Author Posted April 29, 2005 You're welcome, let me know if it works! Quote
