Tenderfoot Thahd Falastur Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Hello everyone, I have played through Exile 3 at various times but more recently I tried to go back through and play on my Mac through a VM. I got it on WINXP and have downloaded the game from the website and had to download the sound misc dat fix so that it loads correctly. However it is showing as an unregistered copy. Anyone know any solutions to this? Thanks Game code: 20471 Editor code: 4210 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Quiconque Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 EDIT: Ohhhh, wait. misc.dat is what stores the registration status, isn't it -- so using the sound fix means the old registration status is wiped. Huh. Not sure what to suggest there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 You could try downloading a new version since it is free to play. See here for links Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Quiconque Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 That's the link Falastur used. The problem, I believe, is that using the sound fix (also described on that page) overwrites the auto-registration status that now comes with the game.

Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Then the alternative is email Spiderweb and see if Jeff still has the program to send a new registration code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd Falastur Posted February 2, 2019 Author Share Posted February 2, 2019 Is there a part of the Misc.dat that can be changed to only fix the sound issue and keep the registered copy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Quiconque Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Maybe, but I don't think anyone has mapped out the file format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Plus it gets into an area we aren't suppose to discuss. But I suppose you could try comparing the before and after file versions to see where there are differences. What you would want is an extremely small change for registration and the largest change would be the sound issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
