Outrespective posted:If I could find a pack like that anywhere nevermind evil wal-mart, I'd buy it, but I can't so I haven't. I've got the Planescape pack from Walmart though i've never played it, i'm pretty sure it's only two discs (while the original was something around 4 or 5) because they removed a ton of the movies/spells from the game to make it fit. So i wouldn't consider the Walmart version to be definitive.

JazzFlight posted:I love RealMyst, but I need to know if it'll work on Windows 7 x64. I have it on CD and it didn't work past a certain year due to incompatibilities. I forget if the problem was Windows or graphics cards or something. I tried to get it to work a few months back, i failed though And ignore this, i missed that it's available on GoG now. I am so buying it.

glug posted:My guess is it'll work since it's coming from gog. If not, worst case scenario download virtual XP and you should be able to install it on XP on your machine. I had no problem installing Wizardry Gold (original version, not from gog or anything) in XP mode, where it wouldn't on win 7 64 at all. It ran fine, until I realized that short of setting my monitor resolution to 640x480, it would be unplayable as designed, it being a terrible hack of a dos? game into a lovely window so that it would run in windows 3.1 or some poo poo. I'll bite and buy it, i'll let everyone know how it works tonight.

Looks like it's a no go, I got it to load once and everything looked and sounded fine and then the Myst book started falling and the graphic corruption started. Got into the game and everything was messed up. I've tried a variety of resolutions (started at 1920x1080) and graphic settings (no aa) and compatibility options but i just can't get it to run under Win 7 x64, looks like i wasted 6 bucks for now, at least i bought Shogo as well, maybe I'll have more luck getting that to run. Oh graphics card is a geforce GTX 275.

I stand corrected, went poking around the gog website after posting this and found a solution that has been working for me. 1. Change the setup utility (realMYSTSetup.exe) in your realMyst folder to run as admin always 2. Set the RealMystStart exe to windows xp sp3 compatability and check off run as admin. 3. Set your 3D Hardware to Direct3d HAL and NOT Direct3d T&L HAL 4. Set your resolution to whatever you want (i'm running 1920x1080 32 bit) 5. Set your texture quality to High (that's what i'm running at least) 6. I have Full Scene Anti-Aliasing on and it works fine, ymmv 7. Select ok and run RealMystStart.exe (the exe with the yellow gog icon and not the myst book one). 8. Hopefully play like me. Hope this helps.

Ha i still have this game in a box in my closet, i keep meaning to dig it out and play it but didn't have a whole lot of faith that it would run. GoG is just getting more and more awesome.

ToxicFrog posted:Ditch Shogo, it's a cool concept that wasn't implemented all that well when it came out and (as I found out when I tried to replay it last year) has aged terribly. Blasphemy, Shogo is awesome. I'm still waiting on that sequel Monolith...
