Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 We had a complaint from a user who was using Vista and who wasn't able to install the game from the CD. It should be working fine in general, so this worries me. Are there any Vista users who got the CD and it worked/didn't work? - Jeff Vogel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Drezin Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 I've played through a good deal of geneforge 4 with vista and have had no problems thus far. As far as installing the game from the CD... The autostart menu that pops up on vista ( Displaying: "install" / "view readme" / "quit" ) Doesn't work. Clicking install simply doesn't do anything. But anyone using vista can still install the game. To do this: - Go to "computer" - right click the geneforge CD and click explore from the menu that appears. (this will let you see the CD's contents). - click the install icon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Micawber Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 What he said. For me, none of the recent Spiderweb games installed straight from the CD under Vista. However, as I hate autoplay and prefer to browse to the install.exe file on the CD anyway, this didn't worry me. Browsing to D:\Install.exe on my GF4 cd worked fine.

Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted February 16, 2007 Author Share Posted February 16, 2007 Thanks for the information. We've redone the CD, and it should be better now. - Jeff Vogel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt I_am_a_Minotaur Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 This is a great example of one of the things I love about these games. If you are having trouble Jeff will help you and try to fix the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
