Avoid any other download sites, as either they don&#39;t work, install unwanted toolbars or are BigFish trial versions. </p> <p>For those who don&#39;t know the game:- Robbie - Unforgettable Adventures 28.1Mb arcade platform - is basically a Pacman clone, but very good fun, all the same!</p> <p>You can find a full review by Whiterabbit from when it was a game giveaway <a href="http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/6358"><strong>HERE</strong></a></p> <p><center><img src="http://www.myplaycity.com/gn/258x146/667_258x146.jpg"></center></p> <p>Robbie is an adventurous (and smart!) robot who has to explore other planets to find minerals exhausted from his own planet. In saving his friends and family he will encounter various dangerous creatures and add to his inventory. It&#39;s a very child-friendly game played with the mouse and left mouse button. It plays in simulated 3D (actually 2D) and you just hold the mouse button and move the mouse in the direction you want Robbie to move. </p> <p><center><img src="http://www.doublegames.com/images/screenshots/robbie-unforgettable-adventures_3_big.jpg"></center></p> <p>There are various mazes to traverse, with obstacles blocking some paths, and the enemy creatures move on set paths only, making them a little easier to avoid. There are coin bonuses to collect if you collect enough minerals in time, before heading for the exit. You can move to the &#39;displayed&#39; exit to the next level when you have collected most of the mineral gems, but need to collect all of the gems to be able to go for the timed coin bonus collections. Click on Play before trying to move Robbie on what is actually the level map screen to get to the game proper. It&#39;s great fun, and a really good game for the children (all ages up to 90 or 100+) to play!</p> <p>The MyPlayCity full version works fine in Win 7 x32, so should work without any problems in Vista and XP.</p> <p>All the proper MyPlayCity version does is display a very short advert on loading the game and open a browser to the MyPlayCity site on exiting the game. (which in my opinion are both very well worth putting up with to get the full game for free!) </p> <p>Glad MyPlayCity have this as an (excellent!) freebie now! :) </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/10572#post-95929 Mon, 10 Oct 2011 20:38:35 +0000 Whiterabbit-uk 95929@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>I recently posted Robbox in the free games project.

Thanks, anyway.</p> <p>Paul, your information was concise and totally on target, and forced me to accept the conclusion I had come to before I posted my comment; but I took a shot that someone might have some solution I had missed. I&#39;ll install a different card. It&#39;s not merely to play the game. I&#39;ve been procrastinating on replacing the card for awhile. I have a 256Mbyte card around here somewhere that is dying to be installed. Thanks for being verbose.

Quantum AKA "The Dragon" 72660@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>These older Nvidia GeForce FX or &quot;GeForce 5&quot; series (codenamed NV30) cards are known to be somewhat problematic!</p> <p>A) Questionable tactics</p> <p>Nvidia historically has been known for their impressive OpenGL driver performance and quality, and the FX series maintained this. </p> <p>However, with regard to image quality in both Direct3D and OpenGL, they aggressively began various optimization techniques not seen before. They started with filtering optimizations by changing how trilinear filtering operated on game textures, reducing its accuracy and thus visual quality.</p> <p>Nvidia also replaced pixel shader code in software with GeForce FX-optimized versions with lower accuracy. These &quot;tweaks&quot; were especially noticed in benchmark software from Futuremark. In 3DMark03 it was found that Nvidia had gone to extremes to limit the complexity of the scenes through driver shader changeouts and aggressive hacks that prevented parts of the scene from even rendering at all.</p> <p>B) Discontinued support</p> <p>Nvidia has ceased driver support for GeForce FX series. The final Driver list include (for Windows 9x &amp; Windows Me): version 81.98 released on December 21, 2005 and (for Windows 2000, 32-bit Windows XP &amp; Media Center Edition): version 175.19 released on July 9, 2008</p> <p><strong><em>Note that the 175.19 driver version is known to break Windows Remote Desktop (RDP).</p> <p>The last version before the problem is 174.74. It was apparently fixed in 177.83, although this version is not available for the GeForce 5 graphic cards.</p> <p>Also worth of note is that 163.75 is the last known good driver, that correctly handles the adjustment of the video overlay color properties for the GeForce FX Series. </p> <p>Subsequent WHQL drivers do not handle the whole range of possible video overlay adjustments (169.21) or have no effect on those (175.xx).</em></strong></p> <p>( Source: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeForce_FX_Series">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeForce_FX_Series</a> )</p> <p>================================================================================================</p> <p>You might find answers directly from Nvidia here:</p> <p><a href="http://nvidia.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/nvidia.cfg/php/enduser/std_alp.php?p_sid=7P5n7uUj&amp;p_lva=&amp;p_li=&amp;p_accessibility=0&amp;p_redirect=&amp;p_page=1&amp;p_cv=&amp;p_pv=&amp;p_prods=&amp;p_cats=&amp;p_hidden_prods=&amp;prod_lvl1=&amp;prod_lvl2=0&amp;prod_lvl3=0&amp;prods4=0&amp;prod_lvl5=0&amp;prod_lvl6=0&amp;cat_lvl1=0&amp;cat_lvl2=0&amp;cat_lvl3=0&amp;cat_lvl4=0&amp;cat_lvl5=0&amp;cat_lvl6=0&amp;p_search_text=GeForce+FX+5200&amp;srch_btn_submit=%C2%A0%C2%A0%C2%A0Search%C2%A0%C2%A0%C2%A0&amp;p_new_search=1&amp;p_search_type=answers.search_nl">Customer Help (FX series)</a></p> <p>These two links address more details about the FX series with several more links inside them:</p> <p><a href="http://nvidia.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/nvidia.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=766&amp;p_created=1138914959&amp;p_sid=7P5n7uUj&amp;p_accessibility=0&amp;p_redirect=&amp;p_srch=1&amp;p_lva=&amp;p_sp=cF9zcmNoPTEmcF9zb3J0X2J5PSZwX2dyaWRzb3J0PSZwX3Jvd19jbnQ9MywzJnBfcHJvZHM9JnBfY2F0cz0mcF9wdj0mcF9jdj0mcF9zZWFyY2hfdHlwZT1hbnN3ZXJzLnNlYXJjaF9ubCZwX3BhZ2U9MSZwX3NlYXJjaF90ZXh0PUdlRm9yY2UgRlggNTIwMA!!&amp;p_li=&amp;p_topview=1">General troubleshooting tips for GeForce FX series graphics card</a></p> <p><a href="http://nvidia.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/nvidia.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=2186&amp;p_created=1208906419&amp;p_sid=7P5n7uUj&amp;p_accessibility=0&amp;p_redirect=&amp;p_srch=1&amp;p_lva=&amp;p_sp=cF9zcmNoPTEmcF9zb3J0X2J5PSZwX2dyaWRzb3J0PSZwX3Jvd19jbnQ9MywzJnBfcHJvZHM9JnBfY2F0cz0mcF9wdj0mcF9jdj0mcF9zZWFyY2hfdHlwZT1hbnN3ZXJzLnNlYXJjaF9ubCZwX3BhZ2U9MSZwX3NlYXJjaF90ZXh0PUdlRm9yY2UgRlggNTIwMA!!&amp;p_li=&amp;p_topview=1">Support for GeForce FX series in Microsoft Vista</a></p> <p>The entire Nvidia Support portal starts here: <a href="http://www.nvidia.com/page/support.html">http://www.nvidia.com/page/support.html</a></p> <p>================================================================================================</p> <p>If you wish, you can ask questions or voice your concerns about the Game by contacting the authors via eMail here: <a href="mailto:info@starsashes.com">info@starsashes.com</a> </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/7031#post-72625 Sat, 13 Feb 2010 20:20:13 +0000 GMMan, A+, Game Modder 72625@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Try installing the latest drivers for your card and install the latest DirectX libraries.
