Woot? :? :?:
Does this mean we can upload all of their old games? YAY :P

No. Not all...

Just Indiana Jones :wink:

I believe it's called Fate of Atlantis. 8)

How have you guys gotten past the copy protection in the beginning of the game?

Copy protection?

yeah, right in the beginnin' I'm asked to translate some writin' by choosin' the right symbols. And cuz i can't the game won't let me save or load.

I'll PM Hossa18.

He supplied the game, so maybe he has the manual lying around :wink:

Anyone ever heard of the word playtesting? Copy protection should be solved before we put things online.

I just checked out the game...

Hossa18 has supplied the Manual, a Walkthrough, the Grail Diary & the music for the game!

Whenever you download a game, ALWAYS remember to check for the extras. My bet is that if you download either the Manual, the Walkthrough OR the Grail Diary, you will find the solution to the copy-protection. :?

of course i downloaded em all before runnin the game. Copy protection not included in single one of them...

Ok?

Then I will go searching a bit on the net.

Cya! :)

Thanks! I've tried searchin', but found neither the translation tables nor any cracks for it....

Guys, the answers are in the Grail Diary. You have to READ it. The only other thing that comes with the game is the walkthrough, which doesn't cover copy protection.

some files were missing from the zip file when i downloaded it. so right after leaving the castle i went straight to the airport, bypassing the "hitler checkpoint sign your pass" episode that i hear about in the walkthroughs i have found. so i couldn't finish the game.

besides that, it was a very fun game.

Ok...so this is not the total full game that we can play???

One of the best LA games. I like the movie trilogy very much. One thing I really hated were the fights in the castle. There should be a zero key like in part 4.

Are you sure the Indy games are abandonware? As far as I know they're still being guarded jealously by Lucasarts lawyers.

Not this one! :bleh:

How can I know if a game is abandoned or not? I think the release year isn't enough.

First check to see if the producer is still selling or supporting the game. That is the most important rule.

Also the game must be older than 5 years, and that no-one own the copy-right.

I have Windows XP and the sound for Indy and the Last Crusade just isn't working right....as in, there isn't any. Any advice? Thanks

Did you try to run the game with DosBox? :sneaky:

Well, it's weird, because I have run Colonel's Bequest and I can run The Dagger of Amon-Ra (the other Laura Bow game) with sound and no problems without DOSbox. Could it be the difference lies in that they're from different makers? I'll download DOSbox and see what happens but if anyone has any other suggestions, I'd appreciate them :)

ok, I got the sound up and running in DOS box but now I can't figure out how to make the window bigger. In the README file that came with DOSbox it gives a command to make it bigger but I can't get it to work. I don't think I'm typing it into the right place. I'm feeling quite technologically impaired. :(

I think Alt+Enter will do it. ;)

a bit extreme:

open dosbox.conf
output=overlay (used to be surface)
hwscale=2.5 (used to be 1.0)

save/start dosbox/enjoy

If you have trouble with DOSBox then try ScummVM which runs it without slowdown and with better graphics scalers. Hmmm...I seem to spend a lot of time telling people about ScummVM :lol:

ScummVM is great, but only build to run old adventure games. If you want to play anything else, you'll still need Dosbox or VDMS.

You're right Aaberg. But there is no reason not to use ScummVm for Lucas Arts and Revolution Adventures. A very big plus for newbies is the easy to use interface. DosBox should have one too. At least you should visually set fullscreen and change the cd images on the fly.

That is why you use VDMS instead. This is very easy to use: Rigthclick on the .exe and press "run with VDMS". I know it works with sound with the Indiana Jones games, and I would think it works with the most other adventures as well. VDMS also works with other games than adventure games. :ok:

But I still have Dosbox, because some few games doesn't work with VDMS, and some REALLY old games runs too fast in VDMS. Dosbox can slow this down.

So i still think that ScummVM is superfluous.

But if you have downloadet ScummVM, then use it, it's a great program. I just don't think it's necesarry. :)

Thanks so much to everyone who posted for their helpful advice. I went with the DOSbox and figured out how to make it fullscreen. Now I'm happily playing my Indy game! Thanks again

BEST GAME EVER!!!!

For somebody who doesn't do thumb-twitch shoot-em-up games, this was pure bliss! Sooo happy somebody found it and brought it back to life :).
Thank you!!

Coolest Thing to do in the Game:

Hit Hitler just in his face and get shot

Funny :Brain:

:cry: damm none of this games are working and i like this kinda games most all because windows xp

I replied to your other topic Lijpo.

ok, a silly question about indiana jones and the last crusade : how do i quit the game and return to dosbox prompt?

Try one of these:
ctrl + c
alt + q
alt + x

I think at least two should work, but I don't really remember anymore.
Just remember to save first or else you'll lose the whole game!

thanks a lot! :ok:

hi
i got a problem, i cant save, it doesnt let me use my function keys, in any game, i dont get it, is there something i need to be doing? or something i should know?

please help

Chris

Can someone confirm whether this is true or not? I own the game for amiga, but would like to play it again. But it isn't worth it if the game's not complete.

When you got caught in the Castle by Colonel Vogel (I guess that was his name) you can give him the real Grail Diary or Indy's child-days-diary, which looks similar. If you give him the wrong diary, there's no need for Indy to go to Berlin (to get the Grail Diary back), so he goes straight to the airport. I was able to try both ways, so there's nothing missing in the Zip-Archive on Abandonia.

I just downloaded the game.
unzipped the the file and executed indy256.exe

next I have an error that says... divided error

and I cannot run indiana jones...

any clue?

I did it with Dosbox in win 98 and XP and same problem

get scummvm from the utilities section of the main site (it plays a lot of the old lucasarts adventure games)

I cant seem to get the combo for the music in the catacombs done right.

Which is sad, since I do know how to read a musical score.

Can anyone help?

For some reason I cannot complete the musical puzzle in the catacombs.

Is the clue behind the puzzle symmetry, since there are six skulls but only 5 notes in the grail diary?

You just have to use the skulls like a piano, to play the melody described in the Grail Diary. I don't remember very well, but I think the rightmost skull corresponds to a 'C' in the notes.

Ah. With one note "fixed", the rest was "easy". Thanks.

So if those were in the G-key:

B-E-C-B-E is the pattern, I suppose

3 - 5 - 6 - 3 - 5

They aren't in keys. They are simply there. The first line (beloww the actual note lines) that's supposed to be C is the first skull. Every next line is one skull further - so top line is the last skull. This is actaually a case, where knowing the notes isn't helpful.

Question, I try to download the music extra on the download page but it just brings me back to the main page for the game and I have no music for it, How do i download it?

I unzip the game but it keeps asking me to insert disc 1. How do I get around this

Can you help me?
When Indy enters in his office,at the very beginning,the game don't work anymore. :cry:

Hello all...

why the game no have SOUND? :cry:

:help: When I go to run the game it asks me to insert disk 1 any suggestions?

Use Dosbox and type "Indy256" to start the game (minus "" of course).

I've been playing it and am halfway, at the airport. Nothing missing, it plays just fine. :ok:

A tip: don't give Col. Vogel the fake diary or you won't get to go to Berlin, which is a great scene. And you get to meet Hitler of course!

Another BIG tip:

Remember you have the Grail Diary in Indy's inventory. Look at it whenever there's a puzzle in connection with it.

Also, you have the 'real' Grail Diary that came with the game. You need it to know which grail is the correct one, plus it gives some hints to certain traps at the end stage. It's also a great read and adds immensely to the atmosphere. You can download it at the game's page.

Seem to be stuck in the library. Can't identify individual books like the hints have suggested, find the sections but can't pick up, push, pull or use?? Any one help?

There are some books you can pick up. I don't remember the names of them (It is ages ago, I last played the game). It is not every individual book in the library you can pick up, but there are some!.

This is where the "WHAT IS" command comes in handy. Just go through the screen with the cursor and at some point it will say BOOK (singular) instead of BOOKS (plural). Those you can pick up - but don't really need any of them.
To continue you need to get to the underground maze (refer to the grail diary while standing in front of the big windows - between the different book sections).

We can't pass the running-before-they-catch level on the Zeppelin. Is there any trick or hint how to avoid the guards? :help:
Savegame would be appreciated!
Thanks for everyone!

You should have posted yesterday, because I was going through that moment and i would send you a savegame. Now i've completed the game and i don't have that save :whistle: . But it isn't very hard, after few attempts you should pass it.

Well to be honest I don't see the point in going to the air-ship in the first place (unless you wish to follow the movie).

If you go to the air-ship you'll have to fight many soldiers until you can get to the air-plane. You could have just taken the air-plane in the first place (before taking off in the air-ship). You will end up in the same place.

BTW - did anybody know that it is importaint how well you fly the air-plane? The longer you stay in the air the further you'll go (I haven't succeeded in flying out of Germany - but I've heard it could be done). You just need to stay clear of the German planes - usually by making sharp turns (up + left, right, down + left, right,...). Just make sure you'll go in sucha a direction that the nazi plane will have to fly through the mark of the machine-gun and Henrry will shoot it down!

there's a trick to fighting that'll keep your health high and it's ideal for spots like that where you have lots of room (just dont' try it with checkpiont guards). throw a punch or two, then immediately step back. when he steps forward, throw one or two punches and step back again. repeat until he knocks the nazi out. it should keep your health high enough throughout.

don't try this at the checkpionts, there isn't enough room.

I can't pick up the whine bottle ...? :(

I am so sad , i wrote whine instead of wine :)

Look at the bottle first, then after Indy says It's bad wine you will be able to pick up the bottle.

thx :ok:

How to avoid the Zeppelin if you really hate being chased by the guards:

in the library in Venice, find the section "How To..." books. Find "How To Fly A Biplane" book. You will have to memorize the procedure or else you will be pulled out of the plane. The plane is parked at the airport, next to the zeppelin.

Hm, I didn't know that. But then I got a travel pass, signed by Hitler personally! I don't need to fly far! I can just tour the whole of Germany with my pass! :ok:

You can also talk your way through the road blocks (just like in the castle). If you're really careful you'll only have to fight twice (first time with that huge guard - but if you get him drunk it's a peice of cake - and the second time with guard at the check point on the way to Berlin).

you can talk your way through the checkpoint to berlin, just choose the "secret mission, no ID" pathlines.

the sixth checkpoint out of berlin is really tricky. you need either the signed pass, a signed mein kampf, or a LOT of money (225 marks, i believe). he's a pretty tough fighter as well, the moving back trick doesn't work because you're in too tight a space.

just wondering if there should be music with the game or not?

I'm running the game from both Scumm and Dosbox and all I get are SFX but no music...

Any fix or is this something to be accepted?

Also i noticed Sam n' max in the begging office...which leads me to think that this game was made after SnM...which then leads me to wonder if there is a talkie version to this game?

Thanks :bye:

There's no version with voice samples. You could read about it in the review. And this game is of course older than Sam and Max. I don't how it was exactly, but i think the characters of Sam and Max were designed before they even started making the game. Or they were making it for very long time - about five years. Does anybody knows how it was actually?

Well from what I gathered Sam'n'Max were some sort of comic book carachters being developed, but they turned into a game. I remember reading about their comic (never seen the thing myself). But it's well in the past.

My parents have played this game before and have saved every important point in the game. Whenever I would load them there would be a small key in the inventory. I figured out that it went in the chest in his father's house. I also found the sticky tape behind his shelves, but it took me forever to find out that the key is in there, and even longer to find out that you are supposed to put it in the jar in his office. Also, did you know that if you give the pass to Hitler, he will sign it and all you have to do is show it to the roadblocks and they will let you through. The pass is in the Colonel's file cabinet in the castle.
:D :D :D :D

Wow. That was... helpful.

Excuse me for getting all sarcastic, but here's another helpful bit of info:

If you meet Hitler and throw a punch, the Nazi guard will shoot you. :rifle:

In all my gleeful sarcasm, I forgot to mention this:

the pass will only be in Colonel Vogel's file cabinet if you have performed a certain action. But you won't know because you never played the game yourself (loaded all from save games).

But then again - you can't really finish the game without that particular thing that would bring up the pass. You just don't know if the grail is glowing or not :whistle:

Well you can create a savegame and try out the grails one after the other. That's what I had to do the first time I won the game, actually, because I hadn't noted down the clues as to which grail is the right one... :whistle:

Admit it... you played the bootleg version and had no manual (with descriptions of the grails) so you couldn't make out the clues. :sneaky:
at least that's what happened to me before I bought the game

Yes...

Admin it dammit!!! :D

Well, when I played it the first few times, years ago, I accidentally stumbled upon the guard (wearing my German officers uniform) and he said that only those with business concerning the art collection were allowed in the area.

I mean, if you slip past this guard and he never asks you about the art collection, you wouldn't know how to get into the safe.

First time I ever played it, I had two descriptions for the grail because I didn't know if it was glowing or not.

"He chose... poorly." OMG

LOL that scene was even funnier than in the movie!

Forgot this:

Elsa doesn't have to die, you know.

WOOHOO!

Newbie Spammer :w00t:

Nah really?
You mean you can just give the grail back and the temple stays unharmed? I would never figure that one out! "You can't take the grail past the seal!" just isn't a big enough of a hint!

Well, in a walktrough provided by The One Magazine (years ago), they said to 'leave the grail where it is for a happy ending.'

I just figured it would be more civilized to hand the grail back to the knight in person. After all you wrecked his place.

On the other hand, Elsa's a Nazi b*tch. So let her die. :angel:

Talking about hints: the movie said it all.

Yup. I really love the part of the movie where Harison is boxing in the school gym :ok:

Oh and the most difficoult puzzle in the game was chasing the pigeons away with an umbrella - I simply couldn't find it...



Well the bookled I got with the game says that they were developing the game simultaniously with the movie, so they included some ideas that were left out of the movie (like Biff the nazi guard - who needs to get drunk). The: "Hi, I'm selling nice leather jackets" phrase however never was ment as a part of the movie.

Me??? Nah, it was the first game I owned and I got it on one of those Lucas Arts Classic Adventures CDs.:) I just never thought I'd make it that far to the end, so I simply didn't bother to pay attention to ANY of the clues. In the end I had to try every single grail (and chose poorly a lot of times, of course). At my first try I was even stupid enough to pick up all of them because I didn't know there's no way of telling them apart once they're in your inventory ("Now THAT'S the cup of a carpenter..."). :rolleyes:

Tsk, you insist on going ahead with this, professor?

When I meant the movie said it all I was of course referring to Elsa's fate.

And btw, the movie is not as good as the game. Raiders Of The Lost Ark, now there's a decent film.

Furthermore, I don't see myself as a very good adventurer, but not that bad that I will stoop to using saved games. Certainly not in a Lucas Arts adventure. Face it, they're not that hard to solve.

I fully agree with that statemant. These games aren't that difficoult (and even if they were there are dozens of sites - including this one - where you can get solutions). And yes - Raiders of the Lost Ark was a much better movie IMHO then Last Crusade as well.

Can someone help me with Dosbox?

Well I remember playing that game on a 486 using Win 3.1 ...
I'm on a Windows 98SE box now.
Why am I not able to run the game through DOS and I need Dosbox?
Is there a way to play it like the good old time?
I drag and dropped the indy256.exe into Dosbox and it opened it.
Graphics and sound are working but I think it's a little slow.
The fps's.
Why is that?
Maybe it's just my impression?

Also, the biggest problem...the screen is not aligned right.
When switching to full screen mode, a few cm from the screen are cut.
How can I fix this and restore the normal position?

How do I exit Dosbox while playing the game?
I'm doing it with alt-esc for now.

Btw, awesome site!

Run the game using scummvm get it at www.scummvm.org, this should help to run the game.

The game should be able to run, but you might have sound troubles. The game is trying to automatically configure the soundcard - and that's why it crashes (I had the same problem). Try running it with a switch (instead of "Indy256" type "Indy256 /s"). This should do it, but it will only have the PC Internal speaker. MAybe if you try Indy /a it would run with ad-lib sound, but you'd need to reconfigure it probably.

So again: When you're in DOS mode (under Win98) try the command Indy256 /s.

hello all!
you've been really helpfull with recomending the dosbox, and i ran it and the game works (sound too). but the problem is, i cannot box. i step into the ring and try using the keys for boxing but it does nothing. i tried switching the num lock on and off and still nothing. the F5 command works fine, so it's not the whole keyboard. can someone tell me what to do? :blink:

I know this might sound silly, but have you tried the regular number keys (above the letters). It might work - but I never had the kind of problem you described. Also if I remember corectly you may fight with a mouse too.

Perhaps it's just the numerical keys that's the problem?

Have you tried using another keyboard?

ok, my brother helped me with that. it works with the regular numbers, not the numeric pad.
but now the problem is that the game is slow the screen changes (when i enter or exit the room). im running it with the dosbox and tried running it with the scumm thing but i dont know how. it says i need to copy the game files somewhere but i didnt understand where.

ok, i got it. it works.

Help! The F5 command doesn't work at all. I hit the key and nothing happens, so I can't save the game!

Indy & Last Crusade is a really classic gem n I'm grateful I find it in Abandonia. I can see the interface that pioneered the next Lucas games. At first I thought the story would be exactly the same like the movie but I was wrong, there's a lot of different details. As adventure lover I don't like the arcade sequences though. Fortunately they didn't bother me much.

People who stucks maybe wanna take a look at this great detailed walkthrough at
http://indyguide.mixnmojo.com

Well, I got F5 working (it seems it was physically broken), and I'm almost done with the game - I'm in the Grail Temple, but I've no idea how to pass the first trial. I even tried using walkthroughs, but they all give me useless information that doesn't pertain to the trial at all! Help? Anyone?

It's simple really.
http://www.abandonia.com/~sebatianos...ndy256_175.png
If you look at this picture (OK, not the best one) but somewhere around that location there's a bright spot on the floor (it looks like a small blue stone - lightly glowing). Just click there (Indy will walk toward it and automatically avoid the blades).

Huh, I never spotted that lightly colored stone.

Just relied on my grail diary. 'X' marks the spot! :D

I don't know which grail to pick


In the castle on the painting, it had no glow on it

But every cup i take, I die!

PLEASE HELP ME :tomato: :ranting:




And perhaps email me the 'right grail solution' :

kil_super@hotmail.com

I'm afraid the "right" grail is a different one for every game, so there is no "right solution" as such. If you don't remember any of the clues, just about the only thing you can do is to save the game and try the grails one after the other like I did when I first played the game. It's rather a tedious business, but you WILL pick the right one eventually.

Oooh, OK

I thought the grail would change every time, but now I will just pick all the grails, and die die die ;) :help:


TnX

AJ Raffles, U have MSN?

I'm afraid not. Are you stuck?

Woohoo maties! I just finished the game!


Tip: For the one who must find the right grail, and don't have a clue what it looks like:

Just take EVERY grail, if it's the bad one, just let yourself die, and do the trails again, till you have the right one!


I had all the 11 grails, and the FINAL grail was the correct one! LOL

Goodluck everybody!,

May you succeed: this is what you will see;

Modified by Omuletzu

Isn´t the grail on the painting from Henry Jones` house? :blink:
I always thought so. But I must admit that I never finished Indy3 :cry: so I might be wrong...

An image of the true grail can be found locked in the vault of Castle Brunwald.

Indy did a grail painting himself when he was a kid.

So how do these things connect? Find out playing the game, it's not hard!

That sounds a bit harsh. :blink: Even if you diligently kept track of every single clue in every adventure game you ever played, you can hardly expect everybody else to do the same and call their worthiness to play the game into question if they dont't. There's really no need to take this kind of thing quite so seriously. This may be a great game, but it's still just a game, for God's sake.

i have been trying to get the game to work. i just downladed it and all i have is the .LFL files and one other file. the game will not start or install for me. what do i do?

You can run the game with scummvm, it's a good program that you can use to run this game and make it run efficiently

get it at www.scummvm.org

No, Guest2005. You were not just trying to help.

You thought you could show off how you 'beat' this adventure, even though it is by no means very hard to solve.

Anyone who starts this game will already have the descriptions of the grail.
The grail descriptions are in the real grail diary! You don't need to memorize them, just look up the .txt or .adf when the time comes. All you need to limit these descriptions to two, is to fully explore the Venetian catacombs. Just keep exploring them and you'll find a room with the two descriptions. :yawn:

That is... unless you pulled the plug first!

Oh, and Guest2005, showing off you beat a game as easy as this (it ain't no Monkey Island or IndyIV) is like showing off your Legos.

Bye now, don't overstay your welcome! :bye:

Oh, come off it, now, Microprose Veteran. You're not exactly being very helpful either. What's the point in picking a fight about such a trivial matter? Even if Guest2005 was boasting about his win, that's no reason to start insulting him. Stop it, please, or I shall have to report you.

Oh go ahead Raffles, do report me. One thing though: did you know you can download the grail diary from here? :whistle:

Not the in-game, virtual diary you know, this one came in the box with the manual.

Ah, now I know what got me to react in the first place:

He (guest) is spoiling the game for those who haven't played it yet!

Sure.:) But incidentally, I last played the game ten years ago.

As for spoilers: nearly all the game discussion threads are full of them, so I fail to see what was so bad about that particular post.

thanks for showing your good will by intervening this childish flaming, a.j. raffles!

@ microprose veteran and guest2005:
please settle this at once! i do hope your tempers have calmed down. :angry:

EDIT:
i've deleted the unpleasant posts - please watch your language from now on!

Well, maybe posting screens of the end of a game isn't the best of ideas... but then again, if you've seen the movie you know what will happen anyway. ;)

Ah, thanks for trying to see things from my side Mad-E-Fact. :w00t:

If threads are full of spoilers then I think it's a shame. Tips are okay I think, but:

1) Anyone can download a walkthrough so no need for showing end-screens;

2) I have nothing against cheating, I just can't (under)stand people who cheat and are proud about it;

Cheats should be reserved for dire games that really need them, like "Operation Wolf."

Whatever you may think of me, I'm a decent gamer who treats most games (those that deserve it) with respect.

Strobe: I have nothing further to say on this matter. :music:

Did you guys used to be able to download the full version of this game off of this site, and just recently they blocked it? Or is there somewhere to download it that I'm just not seeing? All I can download is this "sampler", and I can't even get that to work. Any insight would be helpful.

I'm afraid so. Look here for details: http://www.abandonia.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=5252

How to download???
What to press??

You can't download this game. It's protected from ESA.

could anybody send it to me... i've been looking for this game since i was a child, i last played it on my fathers laptop like 10 years ago, i really want to play this game...... please

I can. You have a private message. :D

Edit: I can't send you PMs. Do you have a email?

sorry, call me an idiot but ,what private message

brianmay@net.hr

A private message is a normal message, but only you can receive it. You have to sign in the forum if you want that i send you a PM with the link.

Otherwise, you can tell me your email.

my email is right there

Are there any other sites where I can download this games?

Thanks

Sent it. Check your email.

thanks... i am very grateful

Have fun guest! :ok:

do any other sites have the full version of the last crusade. i tried limewire but no one has it there

Well, i know other sites but i don't think you want Last Crusade in italian :D

You can find it easily if you search with google.

yes, but that is not accepted by lucasarts, i think. am i right?

You're right. Especially because in some online shops you can still find the two Indiana Jones games.

Too bad I can't download this game :(

and what about fm-towns versions? are these abandoned?

How can you beat the yellow guy at the Zeppelin (fighting, of course)?

What yellow guy? :blink:

You mean the ticket collector?

Exactly. Has anyone won him?

I mean, defeated him

I did one time..but it was down to the wire.

You might be better off stealing the tickets in the airport from the guys back pocket.

None of Lucas Art games are abandoned. Not even one for Amiga or FM Towns, no matter that both computers are not in production any more for almost a decade.

I am running the game through DOSBOX, but I am unable to save... if someone could PLEASE help me, it would be GREATLY appreciated!!

:bye:

Have you tried F5 yet? That usually brings up the save/load menu in Lucas Arts games.

yeah i tried it, but absolutely nothing happens....its quite frustrating as you could imagine :angry:

Have you tried running the game using ScummVM instead?

well....i downloaded scumm but couldn't figure out how to add the game to it...

just run scummvm, then click on "add game" button, choose your indy directory and accept. hit the start button, and play :bye:

tried that, but it says that there are no game files in that directory...

is there somewhere that has like an idiot proof step by step guide to scummvm?

That's strange. I just tried it and Indy works fine in ScummVM, even if I set the path to the DOSBox file.:huh: Are you sure you set up the path correctly?

I assume you've already read the FAQ on the ScummVM Website?

stupid question: do you have the latest version of scummvm?

Does anyone know where I can download this game, or could someone send it to me? I bought it a long time ago, but have since lost it. My e-mail address is:
" userdave@hotmail.com ". If someone could send it to me or let me know where I might find it online, that would be great.

You can find it easily if you search on the net, but i can't tell you where. Sorry.

How do I download the game Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade? :blink:

You don't download it at all. It's ESA-protected and that really ought to be clear by now.

I have a question. What happens if you punch Hitler in the game? What does the game say? Anything funny? :)

Rumour has it that you get shot. I've never tried it myself, though.

Rumour has it that you get shot. I've never tried it myself, though. [/b][/quote]
I have :D
Indi punchs Adolf, and a nazi guard shoots Indy. Worth trying if you've saved before.

Now I got to go play the game again just to punch Hitler, after all how often can you claim to do that.

Awww. :( I was hoping Hitler would shoot Indy. Oh well. :)

By which I mean to say, Indy would punch him, Hitler would recover, whip out a Luger, and shoot you.

Then the game would say something sarcastic, like "Did you really think you could punch Hitler and get away with it? Now that you're out of the way, Hitler's armies eventually find the Grail and conquer the world. Nice going."

That's what I would have done. LOL

Nah, I'd do it this way.

Indy punches Hitler.
Hitler falls down.
Hitler yells "Shoot him!"
The guards get their machine guns and make him gain 3lbs the hard way (by eating lead)
Then the screen would apeare: "Congratulations, you've just saved the humanity. By sacrifising yourself you made sure the third Reich will never get the Holy Grail. Nice work, but you know, there's a way of doing that without getting shot at, and shot at, and shot at some more - those machine guns were nasty right."

That's funny, Sebatianos. :[img]http://www.abandonia.com/forum/html/emoticons/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' />

^_^ This whole game is funny.

"Hi. I'm selling fine leather jackets like the one I'm wearing!"

That line is CLASSIC!

By the way, what on Earth would make Indy decide to punch Hitler?

(Besides the fact that the player clicked 'punch Hitler')

Erm, sheer bottled-up aggression, perhaps?:)

Or maybe some purely natural and understandable desire to break Adolf's nose :whistle:

Yes, maybe he didn't want to buy one of those fine leather jackets...

LOL

You're probably right. Who wouldn't want to buy fine leather jackets? ;)

^_^ Too bad Indy gets shot. I would have liked to see a fistfight between Indiana and Hitler.

Stupid Nazi guard. :(

This game is really big thing i love lucas arts and also everything from lucas such as Star Wars Indiana Jones you know Monkey Islands and Sam and Max and everything from Lucas is really enjoyable. I lov The Last Crusade, i made it 5 times and i hope that one day i will play it again :bleh:

Well, why not play it now? ^_^

By the way, I'm writing an Indy fanfic that deals with the Last Crusade. It's based on the game and movie. Here is the link:

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2404713/1/

Hey,

I was wondering, does anyone have the Sound Configuration and Setup.exe file for the Indy Last Crusade Game? It only plays on my PC Speaker even when using VDMSound. I noticed there were no Soundblaster.ims files or any config files like Fate of Atlantis has.

Or perhaps Indy and the Last Crusade doesn't use config files. If only I could get my Sound Blaster Audigy to play the Music and i'd be a happy man.

-R.M.

Wooohooo! I totally forgot Indy256 was much different than Atlantis. You configured whether it ran Adlib or SoundBlaster by using: indy256 a or g.

I'm sure everyone here knew that, and I finally figured out how to enter the arguments using VDMSound and it works.

Now i'll have to load a 100 MB Orchestral SoundFont on my Audigy, and listen to the Game in Orchestral 5.1 Surround Sound. Woohoo!

Have a good one.

-R.M.

You could always try ScummVm to play this game, it really does a good job with it.

i bought this game fair and square then i lost it.
where can i download it

Not here, since it's ESA-protected. That means unless you find a site which has permission to host it (which isn't very likely), it will be illegal to download it. So unless you want an illegal download - which neither I nor anybody else her will give you a link to - you'll have to buy it again, I'm afraid. Sorry.

You might try here, but they don't have the PC version in stock at the moment. Plus - you need to buy it!
This might be a long shot, but if you could prove it that you really bought it - and contacted LucasArts they might send you a replacement copy.

That's very unlikely, though. Even if you still happened to have a receipt or something as a proof of purchase, it probably wouldn't be legible any more after nearly 15 years because of the flimsy paper they're usually printed on.

Maybe some other way of proving... an original box, manual - I don't know...

Well, I suppose it'll be worth a try...

Iplayed this as a teenager on my macintosh SE 8bit (yes black and white)

i LOVED IT... honestly best adventure game i ever played.. the one i remember best tho..

plyed LOOm from lucas art also..not NEARLY as good.. That Indiana Game was/is simply the best

<3

So where can I actually download this game?!

You didn't read the previous posts. It's ESA-protected. So you cannot get this game here. Abandonia is not a warez site.

Sounds a great game. Is it still possible to buy it anywhere? (I checked out Amazon)
Anyone know of any plans to reissue?

Jo

@ JosieB

You can buy it from eBay just now.

Many thanks, Frodo. The links are OK

This is because Last Crusade was scripted using a very old version of SCUMM. SCUMM v1.? I'm not sure exactly but it was the third SCUMM game LucasArts released. FoA was made with the same version as LCR. I know these things.

I live in the U.S. and im thinking about e-baying The Last Crusade/Fate of Alantis CD set from some1 living in the U.K. His version is in PAL format. Im not sure if my computer can run this type of format or even if ScummVM can run this...
I want this game and I havent been able to find it for sale in the states. Any suggestions would be apprectated.

Maybe this is a dumb question, but do CD-Roms have regional codes at all?:huh:

:ok: @Sharp202



I don't think cd-roms have regional codes.

The eBay system requires a seller to fill in certain 'fields'. When it came to the 'What Format?' field, your seller probably selected PAL because he is in the UK. If he was in the U.S., he would have selected NTSC. Both PAL and NTSC are not connected with cd-roms, but eBay asks you to fill in that field anyway. I know it is confusing.

I don't know if I have made myself clear. Basically, it shouldn't matter where the game comes from. It should still work on your machine (or through SCUMM).

I know I've been quite long-winded here, so please post again if you still need help.

Both the Indy games are really good.

Thx :ok:

I guess it was a dumb question...but I prolly know as much about computers a grandma :bleh:

So neways thx again im gunna buy it.

@ Sharp202

It wasn't a dumb question.
You can always go to the eBay page and click 'Ask Seller A Question'.



If you haven't played this game before, you're gonna love it. :Brain:
If you have played it before, you're still gonna love it! :D

Hope you are successful :D

Yo,

I had this game years ago and I have no idea how to get hold of it, it seems that the abandon site says it is protected but some people reckon its abandoned????

Does anyone know where I can get it if it is abandoned now?

Ta

Lacemarket

ps - Last Crusade has so much more character than Fate of Atlantis in my opinion - all though FOA still was a great game.

Only thing I could think of is Ebay or Amazon.

might want to try googling it to see if that assists you.

If it were abandoned, you could get it here, but it is NOT abandoned, so you shouldn't get it anywere (at least not for download).

Sorry.

I cant seem to download this game? why?

the thread talks of it being abandoned but the d/l link says "ESA" ??

ty

Because we no longer have permission to host it. Sorry.

In my opinion FOA is far superior to Last Crusade. I like Last Crusade for the atmosphere but I think gameplaywise it's not a good adventure. The game has far too many occasions where Indy dies and quite often the only way to find out how to survive is trial and error. [Edit] FOA [/Edit] was much more balanced in this sense. Plus it offers three different paths to solve the biggest part of the game.

One thing I hated about Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade was that you could only use that damn whip on one or two occasions and that was it. What's the use of carrying it about all the time, then? Oh well. It's still a great game, but Fate of Atlantis felt a lot less restrictive.

Well but then again - the Crusaders are based on the movie (and a great one at that), where as we're still waiting for the Atlantis move to happen...

I had it years ago, and frankly playing it then was enough for me :D

Loved it, but oh GOD it was difficult. Remember the 'choose grail' bit at the end.

Okaaay....is it that one? *INDY WITHERS* Damn, reload. :D

That's still a lot better than grabbing all grails first, though...

Well there are two clues you can find and you will know exactly which one is the correct one.

The first clue is found in the underground tunnels of Venice (it gives you two options, but you need to looke them up in the manual - it's in the extras) and the other in the castle in Salzburg (the picture where you see if it glows or not).

So if you used the manual - you would know right off - otherwise guess, guess, guess and wathc Indy die many times :wall:

I was only 10 at the time when I first did that puzzle :blink:

You guys still don't have permission to host it?

We won't until a very loooooooong time.

They don't manufacture the game anymore, guess that doesn't change anything right?

Nope, LucasArts is very stingy about their games.

I think i was nearly at the end when i stucked in the game, so i didnt finished it, but i think that i will play it sonn again

I thought it was interesting how there were three different endings. You could end how it does in the movie, you could pick up the grail before she Elsa (is that her name?) does and give it to the Guard and the place doesn't break down, or you can pick it up yourself, try to walk out, and fall down into a pit. I think if Elsa picks it up you can also get the Grail with your whip.

This is really odd?!?

Is this version a new one? I am positive that the original dos version was in fact called "Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis" - both the EGA and the VGA version.

I have the code book if any one's interested... :D

Erm... There were two Indiana Jones adventures by LucasArts. Are you thinking of this one, perhaps?

Does anyone know where i can get free downloads of the lucas art games (Indiana jones, monkey island, Zac Macrackin...)

NO.

You are not allowed to get them. LucasArts is not abandoning their products.

Im stucked at the start.

I found the "fake diary" and the underground tunnel. I searched the whole tunnel and i found the hook. What should i do now?

Contact Lucas Arts. Ask if they could provide a replacement.

hey could nayone pirate me a copy? or somethin like that.

Sure and I'll have a ESA lawyer deliver it to you together with the court order!

Piracy is NOT allowed. We are doing our best to play it by the rules. If anybody doesn't like these rules, they should simply leave!

hi im new to this site, but i cant get the games downloaded, please tell me what to do

Thanks

This game it is protect by Esa, you have others games to download, but this game it is not possible....

How about clicking 'Download' ?! :tai:

Or do you run Win98?

It's got nothing to do with Windows...

You simply CAN NOT download certain games, because that's NOT ALLOWED and this is one such game, which is ESA PROTECTED!

Hi !!!
Indiana Jones - The last crusade is the F**king best game in the world ever...
I haven't played it since 1993 or something like that. I can understand that it is protected by ESA and that's totally fair, but I need it. I want to buy it, but where?
I can't seem to find a place where I can buy it...

I hope you can help me

JDS_JEDI

Try ebay!

No download button, no help, nothing... last time i was here

Why don't yor read the FAQ? Or at least read the last posts and make an attempt to understand why you can't download the game :yawn:

I have a part of the game, and I was just recently that I discovered that I'm missing parts of it.
Mainly because I haven't played the game for years.

Does anyone know what I should do, to get the files that I'm missing?

I can't really contact LucasArt, because I don't have the original game anymore.

So what do I do?

/Maria

What parts do you have? Which files?

"I have downloaded Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, but when I'm trying to install it, I get an error. It's something that says Floppy. I'd like to know if someone can tell me how to install it properly."

The key to it is in that loaf of glue. You can get it out by throwing it in that cleaning stuff in the back of your school office.

where i can find this "loaf"?

There leans bookshelf to the wall in Henry's house. Push it and you'll find it.

wow! cool, thnx alot.

Hey, guys... is there a way I can get the music here? I don't know how to open the main menu with File, Edit, etc, options... the manual says to hold a key down that key don't exist in the keyboard ¬¬' Sombebody can help me out? (there IS music in the game, right!?)

The fact that you don't see this key does not mean it's not on the keyboard.
As for the music, run the game in DosBox.

Does sombody know if the points of series are saved when playing in scummvm?

After the outro it is said that you have to call the load/save menu to be sure that your points are saved. But this menu can´t be opened in scummvm because svm uses its own saving system...

I swear I have downloaded the Action Game 5 times while trying to find this game. I never thought I would say this about an Indiana Jones game, but I have come to hate the stupid side scrolling Indy game...just my $.02, thanks for listening to my vent..

so i was looking for the game and couldn't find it...oh well, but i did find this which i thought was pretty good and any indiana jones fan will love it...enjoy

thanks but it doesnt show my game save...any answers to that? (please!)

"Christ, thank *meep* that I found this site".

Those were the thoughts running through my mind when I first stumbled into abandonia.com. It seemed as though I had finally found a place to download my old favourite adventure games. When I was eight years old my brother got hold of Fate of Atlantis for his Amiga 1200, and we secretly stayed up night after night playing it. In the labyrinth of Crete, where you have to align the stones, took us about 5 hours to do, since none of us spoke English well enough to understande the clues in the lost Dialogue. The feeling I had of genuine sorrow when Indy ran through the apocalypse of atlantis, having been unable to free Sophia from the powers of the demonic Nur-Ab-Sal, has been matched by no other game so far.

Alas, I see now that Last Crusade and Fate of Atlantis are no longer available here. Therefore, I call upon someone, to PLEASE PLEASE send me an e-mail with them, to (don't post emails plz)

In fervent plea

But it will probably run better in ScummVM, so it's worth starting over - unless you were right at the point of picking up the grail, in which case that would suck, obviously...

@Elina: Sorry, but that's not possible. The games are protected, which is why the download for Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade had to be removed. If it makes you feel any better, Fate of Atlantis was never available for download here to begin with.:)
If you want to play the games again, I'd suggest having a look around ebay or similar places for a used copy. Those games were extremely popular, so there's loads of copies around, and if you wait for a bit, it shouldn't take too long to find one at a good price if you're not too fussy about what condition the box is in.

i got it running in dosbox again and its running fine..now im at a dilemma..

This question has been asked ten thousand times before. The answer is always the same:
Use DosBox. Or VDMSound. Whichever works better on your system.
You can get them from our programs page.
Before you start complaining about being unable to use them, read the godforsaken readme files and appropriate FAQ's in Troubleshooting and Troubleshooting Archive forums.

... or ScummVM.:)

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(nyy3351 @ Oct 22 2006, 09:58 PM) [snapback]262940[/snapback]</div>Give him the trophy FULL of ale, and then throw him a punch.

Btw I think this game is better than the fate of atlantis? Anyone agrees?

Even though atlantis has better graphics and sound, it seems there are more fun and challenges in the last crusade.

I first played atlantis when I was 8 and first played last crusade last year. Atlantis brought me loads of memories but I do think last crusade is a better game.

I think las crusade is more logical...

I found some riddles in Fate of Atlantis very confusing and random.

And Last Crusade came with its own Grail Diary with its documentation which was pretty damn cool ;)

Although I do remember having big problems deciphering the cursive handwriting in it when I was a little one.

Personally I like Fate of Atlantis better.

Is there any way to get speech into the game? It runs smoothly in VDMS and ScummVM, but there is no speech in either, I can hear the music just fine I just dont like see people mouths move but no speech come out. Its creepy :unsure:

I am not 100% sure, but as far as I know, there is no speech in the game.

Just for fun, has anyone ever beaten the ticket taker on the Zeppelin in a fight? If you make it through the castle w/out using the first aid kit you can fight him with full health, which I did and saved just before. It took dozens of tries, but I finally knocked him out and got a free ride on the Zep!

I don't suppose it's possible to beat a sober Biff the Nazi--I'd be amazed.

Hey i downloaded the game and unzipped it but when i try to run it, it asks my to enter disk one?

Use DosBox to run the game. You can download it here.

I sue DosBox to play this game but when I maximize the screen, some of the text lines get cut off. How do I fix this?

In dosbox.conf, edit the line that says fullresolution=original to say fullresolution=640x480

right. no speech on this one EVER. you were lucky if you had anything other than pc-speaker back then, not even daring to speak of a speech-capable soundblaster...

How do I get past Biff, the big nazi? haha, giving him the trophy just makes him fight me.. then he one shots me in the face. brutal.

You have to fill the trophy with beer in the first floor and offer it to him. Then you're gonna win... :ok:

Uh, I'm on the second floor of the castle, and when I try to go back down the stairs to the first floor, nothing happens. I can't do anything =/

You could try Scummvm instead of DOSBox. Scummvm allows you to play most LucasArts point'n'click adventure games as well as some non-LA games on modern systems. It is very easy to set up and use. You can find Scummvm via our main page. If you need help, feel free to ask, but I'm pretty sure you will figure it out :)

I found it very entertaining, well done, technically advanced to his time and with nice dialogues. Again, the films where great, so maybe it isn't fair to compare. I mean, how could you even try to compare a small sprite with Sean Connery?

Get on the phone and get President of United States to visit your home.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Guest @ Jul 30 2007, 12:34 PM) [snapback]301934[/snapback]</div>Acctually you did see the map, but it only looks like some weird canall system. You won't really need a map to get through though (the maze is really simple). So if you don't get to the knight's tomb you have missed something else, that isn't placed on the map anyway (there should be man ywalkthroughs on-line).

And about freezing... F5 calls up the save/load menu, space pauses the game (and it GIVES A CLEAR MASSAGE IT IS PAUSED), so if the game froze you have compatibility issues (not sure if it's the same guesst).

Come on, Internet!

I saw in previous threads that some posters were able to send the game over through PM messages. Is this still possible? I would be extremly grateful if someone could do that. I loved this game as a kid. I never was able to finish the game, and having a chance to play it again would be the greatest thing ever.

I would purchase them, but all I can seem to find our people selling the old floppy disks, which my computer does not support. Are there cd roms of this game for sale that I am not aware of? If so, could someone point me in the right direction.

Thank you very much

A rule of thumb, sending games over PM is a big NO-NO (and the watchdogs are watching, in case you wondered), so is asking for games to be sent through PMs.
Other than that: If you mean Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, it is available here

Thank you for clearing that up, sorry I was unaware. I was also under the impression that the link you provided is not the download for the full game, as it is copyrighted. Is this correct? Sorry for my confusion.

Well, as long as you see the "Get It" button, you are welcome to download it :) Mind you, if you see the "ESA Protected" icon, you better not ask for it. But to wrap it up:

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is abandoned, and can be downloaded :ok: Happy gaming.

You can change the keyboard mapping in DOSBox, in the Windows version you access the mapper with Ctrl+F1, don't know about the Mac version but look in the README.

Or you can also use ScummVM for playing any Lucas Arts games and some Sierra AGIs.

Fond memories of wonderful sound and graphics are usually best left as memories... confronting them with the reality can often be disappointing.

Besides, the truths about "better" and "worse" are always relative. So for that person, some years back, this game may have actually been the best adventure game ever.

i just want to say that i've played this game about a dozen times, seen the movie 2 or 3 times, and i had it when it was actually a new game, and it still doesn't get old. this is why i love abandonia.

does anyone know if the game ends if you stay on the zepplin while it turns around? i would do it myself but....well, i just let it get back to Berlin and got killed. so much for that.

one thing i don't like about the game is i wish there was more than one way to talk your way out of an encounter. it's not a problem when you look up a FAQ, but it seems like a lot of the situations would have more than one way to be talked through.

If you give the grail back to the knight before Elsa takes it, you get a better ending and score.

I have a big problem...even the walkthrough doesn't help me!
I'm into the castle, I have already found Indi's father, but I'm not able to rescue him because I don't have the Mein Kampft into my inventory and I'm injured, so I can't beat the guard.

IIRC, there were several ways to get out of the castle and several ways for bribing the guards as well.

Yes, however the guard is near a control panel (should be the electricity one)
Edit: I solved the problem touching the cables.
Thanks anyway.

Saved Games
 

Does anyone have any saved games for this game. Scummvm or dos saves would be fine.

Why on Earth would you need other people's save games? I'd understand with Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machines, you need a save game beyond a certain point, because of a bug in the game (that won't let you leave a platform), but here? Why???

I won the game before but I don't have my saved games anymore. That's why I want somebody elses saved games so I don't have to play it all over again.:mad:

Game bugs and Nazis and lone secret missions...
 

I got as far as the Chateau. I went upstairs to the second floor (I think to get a key) and then the game wouldn't let me back down the stairs :rolleyes:

The last time I saved was halfway through the catacombes. :cry: Bugrit!

Problems with sound
 

Hi there,

Yes its a great game i agree but how i can get sound for this game?I already tryed the combination alt with s but that doesnt work it says sounds on or off but nothing happens and i have xp but for the rest i can play it.:confused:And how can i get the gamescreen smaller to get it more nicer detailed.

You should use one of the tools that ensure the compatibility with XP.

Try DOSBox or ScummVM. That should fix the problems.

1. Sound -> DOSBox
2. Running in window -> DOSBox
3. Further questions -> A beginner's guide to DOSBox

I tried both, I think ScummVM is the best one to run Indian Jones ;)

Thanks very much guys its much nicer to play with sound:)
But now i have another problem with indy in the temple i not can pass the first trial somehow because its also difficult to see where to walk. I have readed in this forum that there must be a blue glowing stone witch too click on too pass trough, but i not see any:( Please could someone help me?

Hi Guys!

Right after my message i tryed to do that trial again with indy and somehow i succeeded!
So now i almost finished this nice game already:)

Anyway thanks!

Dont fail at the graal my friend ;)

thanks a lot
 

Hello guys

Just wanted to say that it was a rejuvenating blast from the past to be able to play indiana jones again. It brought back good memories of me, my family and the odd classmate pondering over how to solve the puzzles and enjoy slapping Hitler in the face at least once.

is this game considered abandonware? i used to have the original one in box and all but it was ega, i think there's a vga version floating around. if its abandoned please let me know.

Sorry, but it isn't.
LucasArts are pretty good at protecting their games.

Indy is the man! :max:

English review still mentions that the game is abandonware, which is no longer the case. Can someone update the review (or do I have the privileges to do so). I did take this fact into account while translating the review to French...

I see nothing wrong with dropping the abandonware word from the review, it isn't needed in the sentence. If someone disagrees I can add it back in but for now I will just remove it.
