Devil May Cry x64

[rjcali]

I got my hands on Devil May cry 3 (a ps2 port to pc) and i'm running x64, and i go to install it and it installs 4 quick files then says it's done, and i checked the install directory and it only installed 8 mb worth of data, the publisher Ubisoft has a lot of explaining to do, x64 is not as much of a minority anymore, more and more people have it nowadays, also blazing angels: squadrons of ww2 had a different problem where it installed fine but then the campaign didnt work in the game, just a warning to anyone thinking of buying this game and you don't want to go back to x86 windows xp

Set the Setup.exe on the DVD to Windows XP Mode and it should install fine. After "Full" Install dont forget to set Win XP mode to the Game.exe.

Ubisoft could care less about x64 users. That was made abundantly clear in the way they handled Silent Hunter 3 and Splinter Cell Chaos Theory and their unwillingness to update the copy protection to the x64 compatible version (demos of the games played flawlessly, just the games wouldn't because of the CP). I wouldn't recommend wasting too much time with them. They just don't get it.

Go to Display properties -> Advanced -> Monitor, select another refresh rate and try again

Here is short explanation I promised..

1) Extract everything from Original Disk to one folder on HDD
2) Install Orca 3.1 - It's .msi editing tool
3) Start Orca and open game+name.msi file
4) In left menu find "Launch Conditions" and click one time - you'll get some text in right tab
5) Change part under conditions. It should be (Not Version9X=400) And (Not Version9X=410) And (Not Version9X=490)", without the quote's.
6) Save the change
7) Install the game from the folder on your HDD in which you have made this change.

It should work.

I'm not sure if I may do this, but moderators will correct me if I'm wrong. Here is the download link for Orca MSI 3.1

@Terramex, I will try that and report the result later...
