You may want to directly talk to a person that worked on Paraworld, because I dont think many people visit the English forum very much. They probably would if it got more active, though. :cool:

Monopoly, is your problem like the one safyrex has?

It could be that the installation files are associated to your printer tool. Or maybe a problem with "install Shield" !

I have a problem, but I don't think anyone can really help it.... I lost that little book that has the pin code on it! My computer fried, but I have a new one, and REALLY want to play paraworld! But I can't because I can't find the packet! :bash: :lol:

The Pw patch to 1.01
http://www.myskulls.com/en/news/29727/

Have you already tried this:
Http://ati.amd.com/products/fireglv5200/index.html
The driver download is available there. But donīt forget to uninstall your current driver first and reboot !

(Windows XP)

1) Download the driver:
http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html

2) Open the device manager
Check this out http://www.askdavetaylor.com/does_my_dvd_burner_work_with_dvd_or_dvd_disks.html

Click on display adapters and right-click on ATI FireGL 5200 and choose properties.

Then click on driver on top of window and uninstall the driver.

3) Now you should reboot.

4) Deny any windows alerts about finding new hardware.

5) Turn off your antivirus tools, install the new driver and reboot again.


Good Luck !

If it doesnīt help we try something different. ;-)



Btw. Try the lowest possible graphics settings first !

I checked the german threads. The problem with invisible units is a graphic driver problem !

Hi, do you see the unit`s shadows? Or absolutely nothing? Try to change the graphic settings, starting with the lowest possible. And did you clean your Paraworld cache?
If this doesnīt help I think you should reinstall the game, but before installing again, you have to clean your windows registry by using

It will be where you told it to save it! I believe you select the save location when you start the downlod. :go:

I can find the install thing. I just can't find where the install thing sticks it. You don't have a say where it puts it.

Well you had said you couldn't find where it was after you downloaded it, you didn't say you couldn't find it after it was installed! Downloaded and installed are two entirely different things! :go:
