Posted: 6 DecemberOk, Not gonna spend much time on this. Unless you like old style of games, a lot of work to make it playable, and menu's that lag the entire game, don't buy it. If you decide to for the sake of whatever unholy or unspeakable beliefs you hold which must hold masochism in high respect that you'd want to try it. Just know its bizarre and it'd be easier to download a Pokemon hack for an emulator. (you have balls to capture fairies who then combat it each other with elements and a special battle arena, though they do theirs in a unique way, its actually a negative after the same battle mechanics after multiple fights.) GG creator you made something playable, unfortunanetly its not exactly what people should pay for. And this isn't short at all. Posted: 11 DecemberI honestly couldn't tell you what Zanzarah is about.
The game must have been optimised for a very old operating system or is being run via a self contained emulator, as the game appears to have stuttering issues whenever the Menu systems or dialogue boxes are triggered. This being said the art is beautiful and inventive in design and what little of the story I could manage to access was intriguing. I however cannot recommend this game as the issues listed above actually prevent the user from having a good experience with the game.
Making separate user accounts is useful for people who have little kids who like to 'play' with the computer. If the parent makes a separate user account for the kid, he can limit the permissions and file access and keep the kid from accidentally deleting important files and stuff on the computer. Having separate user accounts for family members allows them to have more privacy too. And it has similar uses in office environments.I downloaded the patch from patches-scrolls. The readme is in German. I used Alta-vista's translator and it said.
Problems with the control configuration repaired.- errors when putting on a single player play repaired.- 'flying Pixie' errors repaired.- various Multiplayerfehler repaired.- various adjustments in the scenes of Zanzarah (collision error etc.).- Voodoo3-Unterstuetzung extends.That doesn't really sound like it fixes a problem with recognizing the CD key.Can you take it back to the store and get another one? I didn't see a crack for the English version of Zanzarah at Gamecopyworld and I don't know if the English version uses the same copy protection as the others anyway.Re: Zanzarah Question11/07/03 02:16 PM 11/07/03 02:16 PMJoined: Jan 2001Posts: 2,457. I don't know if it would work to download a patch for the German version of the game when your game is an English version. I wouldn't try it unless I knew for sure that it would help. Unfortunately, I think the company that made this game went out of business so I don't know if you'll be able to get support for it. If I had my game with me I'd give you my Zanzarah CD key to try, but it's over at my brother's house.Re: Zanzarah Question11/08/03 07:28 AM 11/08/03 07:28 AMJoined: Mar 2001Posts: 904.
Sorry if this is a stupid question but are you using the cd key code on the separate insert that has the 'table of effectivness' on one side and 'about fairies and spheres' on the other? I was doing a little research and some people have been trying to use a different number. Also, you said you didn't have O or 0 in your number - do you have any 1's or I's because these can get confused as well.If you want (and if you trust me:-) you can email me your key code and we can work on different combinations for it.Also, the patch is not for the English version of the game.
The problems that it corrects in the German version were fixed in the English version before it was released.Kim.
