Unfortunately we have no tutorial on this one.  Might I advise doing a search of the forums? There are a good few threads about Hamachi (although plenty of them are just about others hosting games there). If you are still having specific issues, post more details here.  The online players can...

Not sure on the specifics, but I had a similar problem long ago when I tried to use the main Island from Creature Isle as a sandbox map in the normal B&W game.  In addition, influence didn't work either. In short, I couldn't fix it myself.  There were a few layers or something wrong on the...

Apologies for my part.  The FAQ I mentioned was being worked on by someone I unfortunately fell out with not long after my previous post here (slightly long story so I won't go into it). From what I understand (which isn't perfect), I believe it does involve the out of sync game feature.  If...

Well I can see at least one problem with that Town centre in that there's nowhere for you to grab a building plan of the most desired building.  The centre is all pyramid-shaped.  Doesn't look to be badly affecting the game but I'm just say that this was the kind of thing I was talking about...

Thought that looked like an odd screenie for XP but I didn't think that would affect the install. If that's the problem, then my hat off to you Sylcai :worship .

I honestly don't know.  Sounds like there's something wrong with the disk, but I just don't know. Anyone else have an idea?

Sounds like you have some kinda permissions problem. I'm not sure what the issue is.  Do you have Admin privileges? Also, is it a legit disk or a cracked copy of the game burned onto another disk?

What's the error exactly? Have you tried cleaning your disk? What OS are you running on?

Have you patched the game to at least V1.10? Ideally, you should be on patch V1.20 which includes everything  in the previous patch. This is a problem with the original game. Bad news is that even once you've patched the game, any creature you had on Land 5 from before patching will still be...

Sounds good. I like the expansion of the creature training idea.  That way, you have to invest time without your creature to get a better one back, so while he's in training, you have to manage your villages more yourself. I also like the village teaching principle you mentioned.  That's an...

Well you've tried a lot of the usual bits of advice I've seen given, so perhaps someone who's had more experience getting B&W working on Vista can help. Anyone?

I been known to have them from time to time :p . It wouldn't necessarily have to be Sable, but I just used her to help get my point across.

Well, to be fair, if the rest of the town looks Norse, I imagine you'd like the town centre to look that way too. However, as the town centre has to handle multiple functions, changing that model is a much trickier affair. I seem to recall that kays once changed the textures of the town centre...

I'm not the expert on all this, but to clarify one or two things: Which game is it you're trying here, i.e. B&W1, CI, etc.? Where does this message pop up? Does it stop the game entirely? Original version or patched? If patched, what version?

That's usually an unfortunate side-effect of custom map making. If you're not extremely careful in how you handle the shore line, this is what can happen sometimes I believe.  I may be wrong, but I believe there's nowt you can do on your end.  Sorry  :( . In addition, I took a look at the map...

Hi whellopeople.  Welcome to the forums. Sorry to burst your bubble, but the entire "B&W & CI" forum here is meant for these kind of questions.  To pile them all into one topic would get very confusing as people tried to answer individual questions. Ideally, each question gets it's own topic...

The preferred type of creature training was always divisive.  But a thought occurs to me. Remember Sable in B&W1?  She took care of the creatures before you picked one.  So what if you asked her to hang on and do the boring training stuff for you.  You could choose what wanted her to train your...

Not a creature story, but this reminded me of a simple mod a long gone olbie on the Lionhead B&W forums once made. Now to set the tone for this, I should point out that the oblies name was Lord Terrible.  Man, he was a hoot :laugh2 . Like you, he was played an Evil god, but he regaled us if...

This is a common enough problem. I believe the solution is to copy the music on the disc to the folder of the exact same name in the game directory on your hard drive.

The upload facility is still a bit of a black box to me in that I don't know what's going on under the hood. Exit2008, by the sounds of it, you're using one of the methods for uploading that (when kays was around more) would result in the content being reviewed before being uploaded.  I too...
