:ok: I got this Blood Omen game working. Works great. Fantastic game :w00t: :bannana:

Great :ok:

Can you explain us how you did that>?? :bleh:

looked everywhere trying to find a way to get blood omen working on an xp machine, seems that the only way to get it working is to use a patch that changes the original kain.exe to something more xp friendly, unfortunately this means it is impossible to use the cracked no-cd kain.exe in the rip making it a catch 22.

If I had the original cd I'd be able to play blood omen on xp with the patch but I don't have the original cd so I need the no-cd crack to run the game...doh! Just interested in finding out if anyone has managed to get the blood omen rip working on xp as I'm out of ideas. :wall:

oh and if anyone has stumbled onto this and actually has the original pc blood omen disk (you lucky devil) the xp patch can be found at the underdogs site. http://www.the-underdogs.org just get the review and you should find a link on there.

:tease: I downloaded Blood Omen straight to my C: drive...then opened up ms dos...and in dos .. you overwrite the crack kain.exe to the other kain.exe.That's it! :cheers:

Huh?

Stupid, stupid, stupid!

I'm running XP and this game keeps on DEMANDING the CD - which I obviously don't have, getting it from here!
I tried the crack but the same message repeats. Can this title be played or am I doing something seriously wrong?

You should run the game in the Dosbox. :)

no, blood omen is a windows game which won't play in dos.

I remember playing Blood Omen on DOS, but the version on this site seems to be the Windows version if I beleives what is written on the game chart specs.

i cant find any reference to it ever being a dos game. just early win95
the folder does look like a DOS one, with the KAIN.EXE looking like it was a dos app, so thats probably why you remember it as dos.
