Looks like some weird insect, don't it?

Well, didnt the pred 2 ship sorta look like an insect.

Ya barely saw the P2 ship.

Ya barely saw the P2 ship.

Its the same ship as the one in the AVP2 PC game, you can see the whole thing very detailed.
at first I diddnt think they were the same ship, but if you look at the back of it when its doing its fly by in AVP2, you can clearly see it is.

However if you've upgraded your windows since Windows ME, you wont be able to play it because the game dosent regognize Windows XP or Vista. I had to hook up a second hard drive with ME just to play the game.

Is there an emulation or something?!

Yeah, I forgot about that. Still...the insect ship looks nothing like it.

Did some searching and it seems as though XP has a built-in emulator for Win95, 98...

If you go to the exe file, righ-click on it/properties/compatibility, than set it to run in a compatibility mode for Win98. I haven't tried any program that would not run under XP so I don't know how effective that is, but if it works it's a piece of cake to get older games running.

P.S.: Sorry for going off-topic.

rIIIGHT....

I just played it on XP64 ten minutes ago.

[Space Voyager]

Any problems?

[Xhan]

Nope. Get the right drivers and right Bink and Smack files and it works fine.

Could you help me with that please? I installed it for the first time under XP and I have quite some problems, running under compatibility mode or not... If I cut the intro the sound (last two seconds or so) keeps repeating over and over. And if I loaded the game it suddenly adopts HUGE ping.

I have no idea what is wrong because all the drivers are by far better than what the game demands. Darn, it wants to install DirectX6! I tried a lot of things but nothing seems to work. Any help VERY appreciated.
