Frustrated with MI4...

Post by Nostaligia736 »

So much so that I put the PS2 version in (without 1 problem) unlike the Win version. I put in Grim fine, that ran great. The PS2 MI4 is frustrating to play. When I want Guy to kick hot coals or even LOOK at a coal, it won't highlight it. About my problem tryin to put the WIN version in, it'll be easier if I showed you pictures of the warnings & the contents of my MI4 folder, how do I attach pictures on here? It gave me warnings a few files may be corrupt or unreadable, it told me I need that fullmap 1 & 2 in there, which is in there, a few files were doubles, so I left those out when I dragged the files from CD2 in the MI4 folder....like artall.m4b, sfx.m4b, voiceall.m4b, lip.m4b, 1110 jmm & m4b, 1195, 1200, 1215, & 7210 both jmm & m4b files

I don't believe you can upload images to this forum but you can upload them somewhere like imgur then link them here like this

Code: Select all

[img]image.url[/img]
I also got some warnings but didn't ultimately have any issues running it. Are you sure you have everything? This is what my folder looks like:

Main
Image
Textures
Image
Movies
Image

If it all looks the same, maybe try deleting them then moving the files over again. I'm no expert on ResidualVM but I will help you if I can.

It plays!!! ty for your image...if that was in the instructions on the other page, I'd have gotten it way sooner. But I gotta question, what's the secrets.m4b file? That's no where in the 2 CDs.

Great! I am glad to hear it helped. Admins, feel free to use my images on the instructions page if you'd like (but please re-host them just in case I forget and delete them from Imgur).

I have no idea what secrets.m4b is to be honest. I'll take a look when I get home.

Hi there, it's kinda common to get frustrated here, as it seems.

I made several unsuccessful attempts to add the game with the PC ISOs and the PS2 ISO, the game never gets detected. I am on High Sierra and running 32-Bit release version 0.3.0, as the 64-Bit version crashes on start.

I had the idea that as APFS is case-sensitive that it might be a good idea to convert all filenames to lower case, but that didn't help either.

I will show you my directory structure two levels down, to avoid creating an even longer post. Does anybody notice anything obvious here? Any input is appreciated! Thanks!

P.S.: Is anybody still working on an iOS build of this? ;)

I just installed the git build from May the 4th (32-Bit). That identified the game just fine, both versions. It did complain about some files it considered broken, but only once. Looking quite good.
