What is he into? I wouldn't mind some ideas on what kind of games everyone would like to see in the coming week, so if anyone has any preferences please let me know.</p> <p>AH </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4275#post-46046 Fri, 21 Nov 2008 04:17:50 +0000 everyonesmom2 46046@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>I have to tell you I really am enjoying this game. I did have to down load the RPG file to get VISTA to run the game and than it messed up the way my screen looked (the size) for every thing else. My son had to resize it for me, as he is my computor advisor. I just play the games.<br /> Thank you so much for the free games. I really would like to see some for the younger crowd if you come across any. It cost me a fortune to get games for my grandson as he runs through them so quickly. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4275#post-46035 Fri, 21 Nov 2008 02:17:48 +0000 mikerb 46035@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>as a long time FF fan I have to say thanks for this Wizzard, on vista hp the rpg 2000.exe file worked for me. the intro was a bit long winded but once I saved the game at the first 'popo' I didn't have to go through it again. great music as well. thanks again </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4275#post-45968 Thu, 20 Nov 2008 14:04:19 +0000 Vasir 45968@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>I cant be bothered to download this game as the computer isnt working lately, hasnt been able to play anything in a while, but if you guys dont know wich version he used a good indication is the characters image when someone talks, hes probalby using VX, although its possible in Xp too, just a bit harder.. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4275#post-45965 Thu, 20 Nov 2008 13:51:10 +0000 wizzard_of_ozz2004 45965@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>That would explain it as well.

Now I'm puzzled. Apparently these two separate fixes will work depending on your computer. Elsewise, I'm completely stumped. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4275#post-45961 Thu, 20 Nov 2008 12:51:03 +0000 adisutanto 45961@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>I am a FF fans.

Don't be thrown away by the intro though people, the gameplay saves the game. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4275#post-45949 Thu, 20 Nov 2008 10:19:57 +0000 Whiterabbit-uk 45949@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Darn it. I wasn't able to get the game to work. Unfortunately when trying to install the runtime file it comes up with the following message:</p> <p>"Can't extract file c:\Windows\System32\Harmony.dll"</p> <p>Downloading Harmony.dll from a dll download site doesn't fix the problem.</p> <p>Wouldn't you know it? I was really looking forwards to playing this game. I bought a copy of Final Fantasy VIII several years ago, but was never able to get it to run on my then computer and whenever I've upgraded or built a new computer I've tried to install the game without success, so I thought with today's free game I'd be finally able to at least experience what all the fuss was about when this game was all the rage. "Cest la Vie"</p> <p>If anyone does have a fix I'd be really pleased to here it.</p> <p>regards</p> <p>Whiterabbit</p> <p><strong>Edit</strong>:</p> <blockquote><p>After my initial disappointment at not getting this to work, I ended up reading all the information found about the game from the link provided above by Wizzard of Oz and right at the end there was a link to another version of RPGMaker that actually worked. the first time I tried to install it I got a message saying that there was a newer version already in windows System 32 's folder (which was the one I installed earlier), so I deleted it and then tried again. It actually froze, so undeterred I decided to try one more time and it finally installed okay and the game works perfectly.</p> <p>the only negative thing I would say about this game was the fact that you had to sit through the dialogue at the beginning of the game, which seems to take an inordinate amount of time, otherwise an excellent free game.</p></blockquote> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4275#post-45926 Thu, 20 Nov 2008 02:40:30 +0000 wizzard_of_ozz2004 45926@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Today’s Game is called Final Fantasy: Endless Nova. This game is an independent project from a fan of the series. And plays like your typical Final Fantasy game from the olden days.</p> <p>The programmer did a great job at creating a game that even die hard FF fans would like. The game starts out with a rather lengthy intro about a girl being chased by “the President,” and getting away. The game moves on to see our hero, Derren, collecting money for a job to recapture a stolen weapon from a bad guy named Sho. Derren has a past with Sho that you will later find out.</p> <p>The game does not require dos in order to play the game, but you’ll need to download RTPe.exe (run-time used for RPG Maker) if you don’t have it already. I have provided the link below. The file size for the RTPe is 11mb and the game itself is 6mbs. The game runs fine in Vista 64.</p> <p>Keys are as follows:<br /> Enter – open doors/use items<br /> Arrow Keys – move<br /> Any button on the bottom alphabetical row of keyboard – game menu<br /> Escape – In battle and menus this is used to go back one screen<br /> I give the game an 8/10 because of simple little glitches in the game, and lack of key mapping or readme file. </p> <p>Saving the game can be accessed by talking to a “PoPo” (a little bunny like thing.)</p> <p>RTPe.exe:<br /> <a href="http://www.4shared.com/file/17079604/943f9754/RTPe.html?cau2=403tNull" rel="nofollow">http://www.4shared.com/file/17079604/943f9754/RTPe.html?cau2=403tNull</a></p> <p>Download:<br /> <a href="http://abandonia.com/en/games/332/Final+Fantasy+-+Endless+Nova.html" rel="nofollow">http://abandonia.com/en/games/332/Final+Fantasy+-+Endless+Nova.html</a> </p>
