Drakan: Order of the Flame - MOD - and another patch

There is a "new" patch for Drakan to resolve the start bug and a MOD to add some fancy things.
     "This is unofficial patch for Drakan that solve two of major problems with game (Alwarren exiting crash and Start Game crash). All it's content will be included in Drakan 10th Anniversy as well. Develeoped by Shelim&Kronikarz"
Take a look: http://www.moddb.com/mods/drakan-10th-anniversary/downloads

I have yet to try it ... but now I would prefer play the game without mod...

The mod seems to be unavailable now...

Fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecy): Game Over!

fahrenheit indigo prophecy

Also this game has been devoured...

Graphically it is excellent for the period, the story gets a little weird towards the end, but it certainly deserves to be played.

It is an advanced graphical adventure that combines different elements of gameplay and its style will surely be used on Heavy Rain (which I still play, next time).

The final I got out of my game session is: good.

Thank you QD!

Save and Restore desktop icon layout!

save desktop layout and restore it easily

Playing old games with different resolutions sometimes messes up my desktop layout.
In my desktop I have MY icons disposition, such as games shortcuts on right, "temp" files in the bottom etc... and sometimes after a game session, when I return to the desktop, the icons are all mixed up or grouped to the left.

If you have this problem, download and install for your Windows version the tool Desktop Restore:

http://www.midiox.com/desktoprestore.htm

Save your layout with Save desktop command and restore it when something goes wrong!

This tool saves my arse!

Fahrenheit on Windows Vista/7/8/etc... it works

Newcomers... :)
Fahrenheit is an old adventure from 2005/06 by Quantic Dream, yep, the developers of Heavy Rain.
It works like a charm with Windows XP, but I found a lot of problems with Windows 7 and the installer said:

Fahrenheit Installation failed

The steps to install it correctly are:


1) Copy the content of the Fahrenheit CD into a new folder on your hard-disk, I created a new folder in the desktop called "ftemp".

2) Download the modified installer from here and replace the original installer with this in you "ftemp" folder.

3) Install Fahrenheit using Setup.exe from "ftemp" folder.

Try to start the game... if it works you have no problem.

Update your game version to 1.1 (if you have the 1.0 version) with this patch:
http://www.hyperpac.de/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Fahrenheit_Patch1_1.rar

If you have some problem to start the game (like fahrenheit.exe is started, but nothing happens and your cpu is 100% load) google for "Fahrenheit v1.1 [EURO] Fixed EXE" and patch the game with this new patch.

Black screen on start after few seconds? Try to ALT+TAB and return to the game.
I suggest you to look at Video configuration in the Options section to fine tuning the graphic.

Delete the "ftemp" folder after the installation!!

Thanks to Hyperpac.de

P.S.: use a good icon for you desktop shortcut like
http://www.veryicon.com/icon/ico/Game/Mega%20Games%20Pack%2023/Fahrenheit%201.ico
(it's bigger when you save it on your HD)

Ok, installed... next step is to PLAY (but now I'm busy with Drakan :P).
