The Great Escape

[Photoshop kid]

Hi all,

just got the great escape, cool game...............

Just done a back up, no probs, however you do need the crack, thats ok

a couple of questions, what is the reg file for? the game runs without it

When running the game from the cracked ex some of the intro videos are missing?

Regards :confused: :

Sounds like the crack you downloaded is actually meant for rips, i.e. warez versions where a significant proportion of data like the movies has been ripped out to make a smaller game. You obviously can use that crack with your backup, but if you want to see the videos, you'll need a better crack. Can you give a link to the crack you downloaded ?

Okay, seems like I was wrong. The crack on GCW uses the registry files to switch to either english or german language. Why the videos don't play, I don't know. What extension do the movie files have ? .avi ? Can you play them in Windows Media Player ?

It uses bik files which are contained in data/fmv folder, don`t get me wrong it plays some videos, like a rolling demo, but not the video that sets up the story line,

I had a similar prob with Starsky and hutch, i had to copy some files from the cd into the game directory then all was ok.

There is no Bik files left on the cd`s to transfer, it`s not a major problem just curious

Regards :)
