I've been able to get Blood running great on my system.(Win 98, k61300, radeon 8500) and using a . bat file and 3dfx.exe. But I can't figure out how to get the movies to play or use Plasma pack. I tried adding blood.ini to the .bat but it doesn't work, or maybe I'm doing something wrong. Any advice?

Thanks. I needed the Plasma patch, but I still have no movies though. They were installed on my harddrive, and work ok without the 3dfx. So I put in the cd and after updating the .ini it made no difference, and the .ini file looks ok. The CD music works ok, and I suppose I can live without the movies, but it would be great if I could get this game running as best as possible.
It's such a pleasure finally seeing this game as it was meant to be seen, and hopefully I'll figure this out.

Either

  1. your video card doesn't support VESA,
    or
  2. 3DFX.EXE doesn't support video mode switching
    or
  3. 3DFX.EXE took out the videos.

In any case I don't think it's anything that GliDOS can fix, but Paul can certainly look into it.

Yes, it’s my fault.
