Re: Thinking of shutting down or reducing this site

Unfortunately the drakan remake was cancelled due to copyright issues with Sony. It was not possible to reach the right people to gain permission and the project was pulled. If I do ever shut the site down I will definitely keep an archive perhaps on Dropbox or my personal webspace with a link to a ...

Re: Thinking of shutting down or reducing this site

https://kotaku.com/please-stop-closing-forums-and-moving-people-to-discord-1847684851 Forums must live Yeah I agree with that article. They most definitely are not the same thing and private discord servers are not searchable by search engines. I will keep this forum going for a while longer. I've ...

Re: Help - game crashes when in settings/controls menu

Hi are you using the community patch? That has the option to install a 3DFX voodoo emulation wrapper. It works for some systems but not others; there are options for using the default direct X renderer or 3DFX emulation.

Re: Can't install Drakan

Hi I don't know what else to suggest. Is there any chance you can try the disk on another machine? You could try our discord server and see if anyone else has had similar issues.

Re: Can't install Drakan

You just need to pick one of those options by ticking it, that will enable compatibility mode for the ticked operating system. You will need to try each one in turn.

Re: Can't install Drakan

I tried installing the game and it installed okay so I'm not sure what is causing the problem on your system. You could try running the installer in compatibility mode (try all if possible) right click on the installer and go to the compatibility tab. Also try running it as an administrator. Failing...

Re: Can't install Drakan

Could be a number of things. Do you have any antivirus / antispyware software that could cause it? Did you try compatibility mode? I will try installing the game on the latest build of Windows 10 later today and see what happens.

Re: Can't install Drakan

Hi, it could be a bad disc. You could try making an image of it using something like magicISO and seeing if there are any bad parts of the disc and then installing from the image instead. Alternatively it could be something stopping the installer from running. The game is very flakey as it uses a ve...

Re: Not sure where to post this, but...

Hi, sorry for the late reply. That is a really old outdated redirection URL from the time where the files were actually hosted on a home server which is no longer running. I noticed the link is out of date on the downloads page (my bad, sorry) so I've updated it. They are downloadable from the main ...

Re: Widescreen hack and some other fixes aka AiO Patch

That should be fine to run the game. But I have a similar problem which I haven't been able to resolve and I think it's related to Windows 10. I don't use the 3DFX driver as the game won't run at all with that; it just crashes at startup. But in D3D mode it does start in windowed and then going into...

Re: Widescreen hack and some other fixes aka AiO Patch

I have a similar problem and not managed to solve it but it can be fixed until I task switch. The game starts in windowed mode you could try changing the settings for full screen / windowed in the riot engine options and then trying alt and enter. I'm using the community patch which includes the aio...

The attached photo linked to porn so it has been removed but to answer your question the thumbnail looked like it is not running in full screen. Does pressing alt+enter switch it to full screen?

Re: Uncommon Drakan Stuff

Hi, first of all Drakan.ru has been compromised / hacked and as you have discovered is full of malware. Unfortunately that server had the largest collection of drakan related content such as screenshots etc. But it's best not to visit the site at all due to the malware on it. There are only three sc...
