FMV crash
|
It seems that the game always crashes for me whenever I come across any FMV. The only two that I KNOW do it are the into and, spoilers aside, the one that plays when you go to fight the final boss. The rest of the game seems to work perfectly fine... I've tried software renderer, compatibility mode, lo-res, the nVidia patch, even the non nVidia patch... I don't know what the problem is. I'm running XP Pro on an Intel Core Duo 2 E6320 and a Geforce 8800GTS card. Any idea why the FMVs would just crash as soon as the first frame came on the screen? It basically just freezes and I generally can't get out of the game at all and have to shut it down by the button.

Don't have a solution yet for the intro one... For the final battle one, try refining off your Bite Bug, Red Bat, and Gayla cards. These cards, for some reason, are buggy, and cause problems up the wazoo. I might think these crashes have to do with a Duo processor; this game wasn't designed to run with multi-cores. It's an oldie-but-goldie. You may need to find a patch specific to your video card's model number, not just a generic patch, though I don't know what patch you applied, so I'm just throwing out the idea. Which Compatibility Mode did you try? |

And it looks like turning off one of the cores to play didn't work either. |
