Soul Reaver from Sold-Out Software
 

I recently bought Soul Reaver from Sold-Out Software because i never had it on the PC.

Well i wanted to start playing it again but surprise. No movies, why? Here is the reason:

And further down in the readme it says that this stupid program thinks that if the system cannot play the movie it will skip over. FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, i want the movies.

Does anyone know how i can overcome this stupid "EscapePlay"?

Is there a NO-Cd for this game? Hopefully that EscapeCrap is located only on the CD and it is not required to run.

N/m, the problem was the 1.2 patch.

Anyway, i tried finding a No-CD but couldn't find one that worked. Does anyone know of any?

So, can you see the movies with/without patch 1.2 ? If you're still having problems, look up the file extension of the movie files, something like .avi, .bik, .smk and tell me...

I can see the movies without the 1.2 patch.
The file extension is .rpl.


I did checked that page earlier but i saw only Fixed Exe's, no No-CD.

There are more cracks here, one of those should be a 1.2 nocd.

Tried too, still no go.

And about the video problem... found a solution. I was supposed to uninstall my wheel as the game thought it was a gamepad but the controlling was haywire.

Mmmm.... if all the cracks won't work, maybe it's time to get Alcohol120% and try it with that. Not ideal, but this will definitely work.
