Shandalar 2012 Freezing? Please Help Fix

Postby sandman423 » 08 Oct 2012, 08:57

I installed Shandalar 2012 and it is running fine but when I went to the Black Castle all the fights worked fine until I get to the main lich...

I get the pop-up where he says he has Hypnotic Specter in play and Greed and then the game freezes on the Black Mage Fight...

Please help me fix this...What is wrong?

I am running this on Win7 x64.

*Update* Started to just freeze randomly now in-game..Had to Alt+F4 out of it. I reopened it and it gives me a Memory Error that it will open but having issues with memory..How do I fix this matter? Posted a pic to go with this. Froze also at Great Druid in Green Castle..

Please Help me FIX

Have you got a torrent program to download it like μTorrent?

Yes I have Utorrent. I am familiar with torrents. Tried re-installing the Shandalar 2012 and didn't get the error of memory to low, but still I think the game is going to freeze when I face one of the Main Bosses. I made a brand new game because I didn't want to play the Hacked Save games and I copied and pasted them into the new Shandalar 2012 Program Folder and deleted the others.

Any help would be appreciated. Seems like a lot of people are having the problem. I am on Win 7 Ultimate x64.

Were you playing without sounds?. If so, I believe this issue has been corrected. The problem is caused by the Toggle_Sounds.cmd file not returning all necessary sound files to the \Sound\ folder.

You can either play with sounds toggled "ON", or snatch a fixed version of the Toggler HERE
