Hello, I picked up this game yesterday and wanted to play it again (last time was when it hit the streets) but now when I try (have tried now at least ten times) to install, there is a problem.

I put in cd 1 and the installationprogram starts up and I choose the folder where to put it and so on. And now it starts to install, from 0 to 100%, and when it comes to 100% there is only the installation background image left and after some seconds it closes by itself. Then it returns to windows and nothing has happened.. Nothing is installed and nowhere any signs of Outcast..

What is the problem? How can I solve it?

I have a computer good enough (I played the game already in 1999 and it worked well!) and Windows ME.

Thank you!

Try the patch nº 1, you have to install it before the instalation, it solves the problem, it's something about the directx

Hi pelajaa !
As eddie said, try again with patch No 1 ... Since you played Outcast for the last time (1999) your version of DirectX must have changed (problems with DX higher than 6.0 if I remember well) ...
