Title: Windows7 problems
Post by: Crok on April 11, 2011, 12:28 PM
I`m having a bit of problems with my Worms Armageddon.
I installed the New Edition version and it works with Windows7, but with the color bug. If I stop explorer.exe from the task manager, the color bug goes away, but I`d like to have explorer.exe opened while playing Worms, so I can run other stuff smoothly.
Also, I tried the patches from the T17 site, but after installing them, the game asks for the CD, even though I have the CD image mounted.
I tried looking for cracks, but didn`t find anything.
Could someone tell me what I would need to install to make the game work without closing explorer.exe OR to give me a link to some valid cracks?

Cracks are illegal, the official game costs less than $5.

Give me a link to where I can find it for $5 then. :)

Thanks for the help guys. I found a working version. It works just fine, all I need to do now is to open the ports for the game in my dorm. Other than that, maybe we`ll meet once every couple of weekends on WormNET. :)

Here's a double pack with W2 for around that much, a bit more after shipping probably:

I'd really like to buy W:A too, but I don;t have PayPal.

I've seen Terminator Salvation today! I could not believe the scene where Christian Bale puts a radio on the road and plays "U could be mine" song from Gn'R to attract that motorobot.. .

edit: p.s. Welcome back Crok!  :)
