Fledgling Fyora Cypher Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I know on the download page it says that the Exile Trilogy is not compatible with Windows Vista . . . being stubborn as I am, I downloaded and installed the trilogy anyways. Exile III worked just fine without any problems, but the first Exile is starting to spontaneously quit on me (although the first 3 hrs I played went fine with no problems). This only happens on certain random battles (when I fight Slith Priests in particular). Seeing as how Exile III works fine it got me thinking that there may be hope to playing all 3 games on Vista. BTW: I don't really want to convert over to the Avernum Series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Tyranicus Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I have had no issues running any of the Exile games or Nethergate in Vista. However, if you are experiencing difficulties, you won't get much help from Spiderweb. Jeff lists them as Vista-incompatible because they are so old that he is not going to support them in Vista.

Understated Ur-Drakon The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Well, he said he would revisit Exile, saying he wouldn't allow his games to die. He elaborated no further, causing some people to assume he meant another remake, but maybe he meant porting them. At any rate, it won't be soon, in all likelihood.

Easygoing Eyebeast The Mystic Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 The Exile Trilogy, as well as BoE, all work fine for me on Vista. All I did was run them in compatibility mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fledgling Fyora Cypher Posted June 15, 2007 Author Share Posted June 15, 2007 Hey Guys, I was able to get Exile up and running properly under compatability mode . . .
