Just edit the file as above but use 3-0-3 on the nvidia 5500 part of the list.

Generic explanation over the years since B&W2 has been out both the ATI and Nvidia card numbering systems have crossed over.
An ATI 9xxx card is very old but has the same series number is used for the latest...
Also it would be good if you said ... Where you installed the game. On the newer (than the game) versions of Windows (Vista and W7) the default install will cause problems for lots of games not just B&W 1 or2.

To save you time waiting for a reply then just uninstall the game.
Then...
If only this was available 10y ago then it would have been brilliant.
Today it is still neat but my remaining interest in B&W would not run to getting the extra hardware.
The P5 glove did it all, as dose the mouse with one hand.
This method needs both hands and body tilting to operate...
As has been said the answer is to locate the install outside the "Program Files" folder on Vista/7 ...... D:/Games worked for me and is the default path for several other installs.
It seems like modern games look for a "Games" folder to install to where ever it is located.
I mostly agree with your comments Sylcai.
The map is not 100% it never was meant to be a free ride.
If you do it right you get a fully grown creature and some small sense of achievement.
Perhaps where it went wrong for you is the fact that felt that you needed to slap your creature when the ...
Tiger is my choice.
Slow to learn but that is a good thing as it makes him slow to forget. Apes and other quick learners can often pick up on your mistakes too quick and undo your plans for your perfect creature.
Much has been said over the years about training but for me all the "Perfect...
As a Good guy.....Siren has my vote ...a lot quicker than breeding.
As Evil I do like the glitch in the game that can make temporary landscapes permanent.
So yes you can make Land bridges that last.
The remaining features of a ground effect epic are made permanent if you apply a second epic...
From memory it is only the numbers that are important so it may well be worth editing an entry to ( after making a backup) ....... 945 3 0 3.
If that gives you the full beans then you may need to trim back resolution and / or other settings to get the best out of you game /...
That's progress.
To my mind B&W2 needed a new game engine just to support the higher graphics resolution and detail that we all expected.
And with it came the cuts to keep within budget and then deeper cuts to split B&W2 into game and expansion.
That was just milking the fans for as much...
From my experience of the game.....
It gets to be hard work maintaining your existing villages , with villagers not working.
Yes you can stay in the after game zone for as long as you like but it will wear you down eventually, when you realise there is no recovery to a normal land.
...
I agree..... you need to install to another folder outside program files....Games is a good choice as many new games look for that folder.
The B&W 1.2 patch includes the 1.1 but either is fine for ordinary SP.
1.1 bug fixes.
1.2 is 1.1 plus some MP fixes.
1.3 is as above but with ...
There is not much MP activity so you may well need to arrange a time to play with another willing player first.
Then after you have some one to play with , then you can set up the VLAN program you both use and all the rest. Win conditions etc..
No it is hard coded into the game.
You win then exit the land is the best way to go.
Your profile will get damaged as you try to keep going on a path that only leads to eventual defeat.
Try it if you want but don't complain that you were not warned.
Just about any B&W1 save or set of files is useless if you can't restore the registry keys.
Maybe it will be easier just to restart. Then use your knowledge of the game to get an advantage.
Leave the land now...ASAP.
The perpetual twilight is really bad news....DO NOT TRY TO STAY THERE....
Restart go skirmish or MP but just do not play the main game after the " end scene" you will not be able to play with any joy for long. It just gets bitter.
On mine the Profiles, Data and Script directories are in the main Game directory.

Doing your own map on a Mac is entirely possible. The map itself is entirely plain text , so any simple text editor will do..
The Help file / Mapping list is HTML so will open in any browser.

No the unlocker or any of the workrounds only work on old 32bit systems.
64 bit has been the normal on new systems for years now.
I have the collectors edition and 64 bit nothing works exept the save game I did to get the tiger on my new PC years ago now.
It was the only way to get it on ...
