Aren't ninja Japanese? So how is Zhao Chi a ninja? Or did the developers feel like throwing a ninja in there because they're cool?

Wasn't this about the time of the Teenage Mutant Ninjas craze?

Not what we are talking about.

It's that time to resurrect the old Sierra Christmas eCards again.

If this is not some kind of joke I am saddened that it might go down some black hole by the buyer. This should be saved for prosperity.

I wonder why Galaxy is so slow...

Perhaps it is intended to be a downloader in the background and throttles itself to not eat up your bandwidth. This would seem to be reasonable for an automatic updater, but silly for a game that you just purchased and want to play as soon as possible.

Just checked the script. There was a problem caused when I added support for the Spanish version. I had an if else statement for the bilingual uninstaller that had changed the name of the destination folder on the desktop. In English it was GK3SaveGames with the readme while the save games were goin...

I'll have to look to see if there is something wrong with the uninstaller's function to save the games.

Yes, Plunge your PC into a tub of hot water. all kidding aside, a clean install means installing into a new empty folder rather than reinstalling on top of an old installation. The idea is to not allow any corrupted files to end up in the new installation.

Try a clean reinstall.

Your save games should be in a folder on your desktop with the same name as the game. Just drop them back into the newly installed folder. They should be in the same folder as the RESOURCE.CFG, I think named "save".

I forgot, copy the GAMEDAT.SHP file to it and run the tool again.

Er... *confused* If I install the game, what difference does it make if they update the installer file?

Different/better configurations, applied patches, any mistakes made with the earlier installer, etc.

The manually version got me past the hiccup point and I'm now trying to get Gabriel to obey me in the dressing room.

Drop the diagnostic tool in the manually installed folder, run it, and attach the log here.

And the problem was present with the installer defaults?

Did you use the SHP installer?
