Well, one of those days when I felt I wanted to fire up Epic again, just bought a new computer with XP, and gawd dang nabbit, hardly any of my old gems work! :\ But, there is one in particular that I want to play, Epic:Final Liberation. On the site it says something about a ini file, which is non-existant (yes, I do have show all filetypes on, not a complete n00b). So, I wonder, is there anyone out there that has gotten it to work under XP? The game launches, but it crashes after intromovie with some strange memory read error, no compability mode works, and there aint no ini file to disable movies.. I guess it could be the outdated smackplay it uses, but I'm not sure. Anyone?

Its a problem, run winupdate. And check for something called "blast" (think it was wsblast, but not sure), its a worm. Info available on the symantec website.

BTW, vogons mods, yes, they are a bit.. harsh... But, I wondered, anyone one could swap out the smack player and be able to watch the movies still? They did kinda rock some of them.. =)

Np.. it was from the underdogs btw.. not hounddogs.. lol.. craving one of those tunamelts a bit too much..

Got a solution over at Hounddogs, courtesy to the original author of this: Warhammer Final Liberation -winxp The reason that you couldn't find epic.ini is because the game creates it after it's first run. But you can't get the first run to work because it doesn't like the .smk files. Catch-22. This is epic.ini.... [Options] MusicVol=100 FX_Volume=127 MV_Volume=127 UseGrid=0 DoVideo=0 WatchAI=0 AutoSave=1 ...just open notepad and copy and paste the above, save the file as ""epic.ini"" (make sure it doesn't end up as epic.ini.txt) and place it in the game's main directory. And the game should work. Good Luck!

TY for the linkage.. posted it over there and on underdogs too..
