'd play some sin if my cd wasnt a 3.5 hour drive away and i didn't have finals
I have finals too, which is
why I decided to take the plunge and give SiN another try. Ran into some problems though:
1st problem:
Installer won't install, halts with message "DirectX 6 is for Windows 95" Apparently Windows XP doesn't count as 95 or greater.
Had to copy the contents of the CD onto my hard drive manually.
-----------
2nd problem:
Go to get the patch from Ritual's site, the version I have on my CD is v1.03, but there are no patches from v1.03 to any other version (even though there are versions to patch
to v1.03)
-----------
3rd problem:
So I then guess, well, there is a v1.01 to 1.11 patch, I'll take a chance with this. Problem is all the links are bad links to 3ddownloads.com. Finally managed to hunt up a valid link on 3DGamers.com (what a great site :)) And on there they noted that the 1.01 to 1.11 patch is also for v1.03 users as well.
-----------
4th problem (and I still haven't even tried running the game yet):
Actually there were no more problems, finally got the game working. wOOt!
Now if only they'd cancel final exams......
