KS Works fine... the Add-ons don't

[frostytheplebe]

I don't know whats wrong with this thing... it seems Im doomed never to play Crusade... I downloaded it off of this website, along with SM1 and SO1and 2. SO 1 and 2 work fine, but the SMs do not. I load them up, and can watch the opening video, but when i go to push a button, the game crashed. Help?

Isn't there actualy in the directory separate exe's for The add ons? Make sure you set compatability modes on each one.

You got the mincemeat superpatch?

see if that helps you out any

You don't need a patch- for some reason the add-ons want compatibility modes when the main games don't. Screwballs.

That superpatch simply changes the default compatibility fixes that Windows XP applies to each .EXE (so you don't have to do it yourself).

You'll get the same net result if you manually set Windows 95 compatability mode to the Secret Missions .EXEs.

what website?

The Secret Missions and Special Ops addons for The Kilrathi Sage were given out free on the web by Origin/EA way back when. You can find them in the CIC's files section
