Help needed getting XII Stag Limited Windows to run....

[dave4shmups]

Has anyone else downloaded this, because I have and I cannot get it to work-or even to respond at all.

After you unzip the file, inside the folder there are two icons for the game; one is full screen, the other is not-I've clicked on both of these, and nothing happens-not even an error message. I know our PC has all of the requirements for running this game.

There is a "Read Me" File, but I can't read Japanese.

Any advice would be welcome.

Download the latest binary from here:

http://www.xmission.com/~nate/glut.html

This game as well as Trizeal LIFTING need glut32.dll to run. Not sure if you put it in windows/system32 or the game folder.

For some reason this isn't stated on the XIISTAG Limited download page, but it should work.

I have xp and it worked without any effort.
Perhaps the required file, the previous poster was talking about was allready installed by another program or could've been included in a Microsoft xp update?

I put the binary file in the replay file in the XII Stag folder, tried putting it in the bindsest folder, and the game still won't work. I have no idea what else to do with this binary that I downloaded, or how to get this game to work. The binary isn't something that can be installed; it's just downloaded onto my desktop.

I just downloaded the latest updates for Windows XP and it still won't run.

In the "read me" file, it says that you are supposed to build the glut dll using Microsoft Developer Studio-I don't have that on my PC.

Also, I only downloaded the Binary-do I need the source code as well??

when i try and run Lift Lift Lift and XII Stag on my comp with my controller plugged in, my ship gets dragged to the bottom right corner...

any suggestions?

Captain, try calibrating the controller (in the control panel). Also if your pad has any hats, rudders etc. set them to a neutral value.

[captain ahar]

its just a basic logitech precision digital controller (no analog). also, i have no problems using it on anything else, but i'll give it a look.

Even if it's digital, Windows generally still sees it as an analog controller. I've had the same thing happen w/my digital Saitek pad.
