Hi everyone,
I get a problem with this game. First time i play it works.... Second time it's freez on the main screen "You Are EMPTY". I tried to re-install it... but there's always the same problem

Thanks for your answer

Thanks

I have so far only managed to get the game to run once (1st time only and never after that).

I load the game up and get to the "you are empty" screen but thats it.
You guys who are running the game after the 1st time on XP what are you doing ?.

I Install game no probs
I install all codecs ect no probs
once installed i copy/paste crack + dll over originals
(I have the same problem regardless if i install SF and run from original exe).

(I am not a fan of SF @ all and dont really want it on my PC for reasons obvious and if there not i cant be botherd to go into it. Just look in the file forums and you will see why i like so many others dont want it on our PC's).

I am intrested to know are you guys blocking the exe with your fire wall or allowing to connect ?. (i have tried both ways).

I NEVER INSTALL STARFORCE PROTECTION (for obvious reasons) but to be honest there should be no reason to have to allow SF to install as a crack has been supplied. (no one is allowing SF to install are they ? If thats what your doing then im baffled as that dont make any sence and i dont want SF prot installed on my PC).

So can someone on XP give me a “EXACTLY HOW YOU DID IT” ? PLZ?

Being able to play the game only the 1st time its installed and then not after is crap obviously and i have to reinstall the game again once 1st time i switch PC off. Any ideas ?

(Im ready to f**k this off to be honest).


I have found by goOgeling that there are quiet a few others who are experiencing the same prob.

Its been suggested by some that running the exe in windows compatible mode will sort it. It dose not work 4 me.

Its been sugested that the exe needs to connect (phone home @ least once) but im unsure about this because if using a cracked exe and dll that should remove any need to "phone home" and the NFO would surely state something about it wouldnt it !. (And either way i have not blocked the exe and also tried blocking the exe).

Its been suggested that its faulty crack (I belive this is untrue. The game behaves the same way with original exe + dll pointing towards a different problem).

So anyone who has this game working and is running XP (with all updates+ service packs) please could you state what you had to do ??.

1 run then i have ot reinstall to run again

[neuen]

Don't reinstall

Start it from DOS prompt

***UPDATE***

Sorted it

Ok i have posted in here a few times already and like so many others have had some probs getting this to run and when i eventualy did it only worked once lol. (and then kept getting stuck at "you are empty" screen).

This is how i managed to get game to run for me which those of you are still struggeling to get running may be intrested in.

Go THROUGH NORMALL INSTALL PROCESS

Make sure you install ALL options (all boxes checked)

I found that by altering the install location (i have a folder named games where i install all games) was a problem. I have had this happen once before with another game so install to defaut location which if i remember correctly is
C:/ Programfiles/1 C company/You are empty.

Once installed make sure there is no problem installing the WM9 codecs + WMV9VCMsetup. (if there is a prob simply after install process has finished browse the DVD and go into WM9V folder and start both setups again).

DO NOT RUN GAME AT SCREEN WHICH ASKS IF YOU WANT TO LAUNCH GAME (AFTER INSTALL PROCESS FINISHES OBVIOUSLY OTHERWISE IT WILL PROMT YOU TO INSTALL STARFORCE PROTECTION AT THIS POINT WHICH YOU DONT WANT TO DO )

So now game is installed and all codecs ect are. Copy and paste cracked exe and dll over originals.

(REMEMBER YOU STILL SHOULD NOT OF ATTEMPTED TO RUN GAME YET).

Once cracked exe and dll are copy/pasted into location make sure you give the cracked exe permission to connect to
internet. (do this through your fire wall/mcafee/zonealarm/ or if you use no software like this then through windows fire
wall. (I noticed that if the exe is blocked the game will not run. I managed to get it to start screen, watch the FMV before you get to control your person but i never managed to play the game whilst exe was blocked). Once i gave permission to the exe the game ran fine (and not just the 1st time).

I also noticed that sometimes the game will run ok but sometimes i have to use the windows compatability mode and select windows 98/me (Thanks to mr.editor for that nugget of info).. (Do this by right clicking on shortcut on desktop/selecting compatability tab/then selecting windows 98/me and apply). Then it runs ok and if not i have to do the windows compatability mode thing again and apply again and its ok.

This is the only way i have managed to play the game and be able to turn PC off + on and then play it again and continue from saved location.

Hope this helps you guys having trouble to get it running and if not then give it up as a bad cause

coffin if you playing this game.... can you write when you are in the "tram" level please ?

Thank you

[coffin filler]

@ neuen.
Yeah will do. Only started playing it last night for 1 hour. Not at tram level yet. What do you want to know?.

Is there some kind of problem when as far as the tram level ?.

Thanks.

@ neuen & coffin filler:

I am happy to see i am not stupid.
I also passed the levels through the tram. after the short movie-sequence, it continues without any weapons.

i managed the area down the balcony.
I also found the ladder to climb up. But there is no way to reach the ladder.
I played about 2 hours to find another way, but there seems to be no one.

so i also would be pleased to get any kind of help.
thanks. and sorry for my bad english...

Yes.... This is what I mean.
I think it's a bug.....

"2wiredtodie" do you see that green truck ? It should crash against the black gate..... but it doesn't....

I hope there are some "saved game" file for us....
