Re: Drakan: TAG
Unless you have a PS3 that has 100% compatibility you probably can't. Some PS3 units had the extra video hardware to allow most PS2 games to work properly. Most new units use a software fix that will allow some games to play but they're pretty picky. The one I bought ran the game just fine until I g...

Re: Forced Crouch rolling
I use the "." and "," keys tied to crouch similar to tomb raider keys that I got used to over the years. While crouched I can use the sneak key to move slowly forward and backwards. I use the combo to move carefully into striking range of scavengers, spiders, and ticks. I only ge...

Re: Interview with the dragon Smaug
I forgot that he did a skit that night about Prince Andrew and the Duchess that was anything but flattering. I can understand why that night's episode might not be readily available in the UK. Glad you found a way to view it anyway.

Interview with the dragon Smaug
The Colbert Report had a surprise interview with a dragon last night. The dragon broke thru the walls of his set and extended his head and foot into the interview area. The F/X was impressive!! At one point Smaug was very aggressive and towered over Colbert. It reminded me of the scene where Rynn me...

Re: How many times have you completed DTAG?
8 times so far with more to come. There's so many different ways to fight your way through. To get the most fun/fear/thrills, I recommend a play through as a 1-1-1 character. The first level special swords and spells can get you through. The first level bows are pretty useless at the higher levels b...

Re: Making drakan *.Reo to *.Obj or *.Dae converter
That folder is HUGE. Surely there's a lot of stuff that can be weeded out. Would you create a new folder that contains only the files and data that are needed? I downloaded all 187 MB of it but I'd like to extract only those files that are needed to do the conversion. I looked around the download se...

Re: Making drakan *.Reo to *.Obj or *.Dae converter
Man, you work quickly. I thought you wouldn't have it ready for a week so I haven't downloaded Blender yet. Guess I better get the programs together and start the learning process. Looking forward to see what you programmed. Sorry, but I'm an old phart with no twitter, Skype, or other social media a...

Re: Making drakan *.Reo to *.Obj or *.Dae converter
I've only used the Drakan modeler to play around and I have no experience making/editing models. I'd like to be able to take some weapons and modify them a bit. Because the modeler is just a primitive one with no mirror function or other useful tools, your program would make working with models much...

Re: Making drakan *.Reo to *.Obj or *.Dae converter
It would be great to have a way to export/inport .reo to an open source program for editing. Blender?? Or even a .3ds to .reo since there's so many public domain models in that format. We would still need the editor for other functions but it would make working with models much easier. Willing to tr...

Re: Drakan on a Windows 8.1 tablet
Everything is working GREAT! The only problem I had was that I didn't install the fixes before I exited the compatibility manager. After reading thru the guide I did it right the second time around. Thanks a million for your help. The problem I had with the keyboard commands are the fault of this un...

Re: General post regarding my game.
WOW, your models look pretty good. It's good to see someone is going to build a new player level. I want to try my hand at it but I kept having issues with the editor and finally decided to wait until I could devote more time and effort to learning the editor and modeler. Once I get it running on my...

Re: Drakan on a Windows 8.1 tablet
I installed all the programs and fixes you provided but it looks like I'll have to do some manual 'mucking around' to get it to work properly. I'll follow your tips for manually tweaking the parameters on the compatibility fix and see if I can get it work. The game is very dark and increasing the ga...

Re: Drakan on a Windows 8.1 tablet
Thanks, UCyborg. Everything went smoothly and the game installed without a whimper. I have a border on both edges but I'll play around with the video settings and see if I can get a better fit. I'm going to put the editing tools and modeler on and see if they'll run too. Since this tablet has Blueto...

Re: Archer Kill of Shaza and Tora
Went thru the valley on foot again but this time I had some extra magic. Rather than a 'pure archer' I had all the first level spells excluding 'fear'. It's a lot easier to get a lock on the dragons if you use a time slow spell followed with a clone spell or visa versa. Pick your favorite technique....

Drakan on a Windows 8.1 tablet
I spent a few hours last night trying to get Drakan installed on an asus t100 tablet with no luck. The tablet uses an intel chip and is supposed to be able to run legacy programs. It starts the install process but only runs for about 15-20 seconds then the disk activity light goes out on the drive a...
