Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted February 3, 2003 Report Posted February 3, 2003 J1A1H; Connect to AOL, then open a normal IE window, it will be on your taskbar desktop or start menu. Then simply follow the instructions as per the above post... We all know AOL is a heap of shite...
Guest J1A1H Posted February 3, 2003 Report Posted February 3, 2003 ok thanks i will do that. I had another problem, i downloaded the demo onto my computer. has any one else done this? well if u have, wheni installed it and tried to open it their was an error. what can i do to get round this. do i have to download it again? Thank in advance and for all your replies already
Guest Ross_Curtis Posted February 4, 2003 Report Posted February 4, 2003 I too seem to have this bug, sounds identical to your descriptions. How then hell are we able to add more games like this if the phones memory cant handle it. All my games are saved to the Memory card all my folders are empty my cookies and history's are deleted what else can I do to free up memory? My current memory status is: Available storage is 5.27mb Total storage is 7.50mb Available memory is 5.55mb Total memory 11.82 does this look normal? Its a great game let down simply by the BUG and also the controls are a little awkward but thats not down to the game designers.
Guest SirGaz Posted February 4, 2003 Report Posted February 4, 2003 I didn't think there was a demo for this game (smartphone version). Correct me if I'm wrong. Have you downloaded the PC version or the Pocket PC version? Ross_Curtis, yes that sounds about normal. Most of the time there will only be around 5Mb to 6Mb of space on the phone unless you start to put loads of sounds on which can't be stored on the storage card :cry:
Guest J1A1H Posted February 4, 2003 Report Posted February 4, 2003 I downloaded the pc version i am goin to download it again it looks gd. But has any one already had this problem wth the pc demo version?
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted February 4, 2003 Report Posted February 4, 2003 It was the PC demo version that convinced me to buy the SPV version. I had no problem installing the demo either. Looks like you have all the fun ;)
Guest pibrahim Posted February 4, 2003 Report Posted February 4, 2003 I e-mailed Douglas, I've followed his suggestions, I've freed up ALL the memory I can, still no luck. I'll try it all once more, if not, then I'm going to ask for a refund - I'm not paying for a game I have to restart every time I want a new level.
Guest J1A1H Posted February 4, 2003 Report Posted February 4, 2003 awarner i can't even download the game. What is going on i want the pc version because i can't get the one on my phone to work. what shall i do THANKS IN ADVANCE
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted February 4, 2003 Report Posted February 4, 2003 I have no idea why you cannot download the pc demo I've just tried an it worked for me. Are you sure you're going to the right page and the right download button? http://www.dig-concepts.com/?tab=1&pr=5
Guest shadieb Posted February 4, 2003 Report Posted February 4, 2003 J1A1H you haven't got a firewall running have you? these can often stop downloads.
Guest J1A1H Posted February 4, 2003 Report Posted February 4, 2003 No i haven't. What happend i i downloaded it yesterday and installed it and everything BUT i deleted it because it was saying critical error when i opened it so i deleted it all and then i triedto download it again and it didn't any ideas?
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted February 4, 2003 Report Posted February 4, 2003 Are you sure your PC is running ok? I'm serious you should not have had a critical error over that piece of software.
Guest J1A1H Posted February 4, 2003 Report Posted February 4, 2003 its running perfectly i rebooted it recently so everything is fine i am goin to try and download it again. Ashley do u think moto racer is worth the money because it is quite an expensive game don't u think?
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted February 4, 2003 Report Posted February 4, 2003 I like it, but it does take a while to get used to the controls and the game can be hard.
Guest J1A1H Posted February 4, 2003 Report Posted February 4, 2003 THIS IS SO ANNOYING i just tried to put it on my phone again but it says " Installation failed. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have adequate system permissions. Please contact your service provider for more information." I do not want to do i downloaded another game aswell i have no idea wat to do someone help please. I ws trying to save it to my storage card but it didn't work. What shall i do? THANKYOU IN ADVANCE
Guest Gorskar Posted February 6, 2003 Report Posted February 6, 2003 Has anyone managed to make it past this level (Evergreen Hills)? Sofar the most I have managed to get is 1&3/4 laps, and I've been trying on and of for a couple of days now. The fact that you can't leave the boundary at all without losing the level means that you have to be very precise in lining up the jumps, which is not easy with the SPV's gamepad I can tell you!
Guest xanadu Posted February 6, 2003 Report Posted February 6, 2003 I haven't got past Level 1 yet :) Finding the steering a bit hard, But I guess, I haven't been trying long enough
Guest Gorskar Posted February 6, 2003 Report Posted February 6, 2003 Level 1 is easy once you realise that the best way to do it is to hold back a second at the start (so you dont crash into the other bikes) and then take the short cut going up, turning left at the last second as you get to the jump. Using this tactic you can easily outpace the other bikes, although of course its still easy to lose if you stray too far from the boundaries. NB I have the accelorator mapped to vol+ (brake is vol- but I never use it)
Guest J1A1H Posted February 7, 2003 Report Posted February 7, 2003 HI PEOPLE ummmm i downloaded the game but it just doesn't want to work it says this on the phone screen when i try to install it. " Installation failed. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have adequate system permissions. Please contact your service provider for more information." Has any one got a way of getting round this problem. Thanks in advance !!!
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted February 7, 2003 Report Posted February 7, 2003 Are you sure your phone is unlocked properly?
Guest kevlar Posted February 7, 2003 Report Posted February 7, 2003 Motorcross is signed, doesn't need de-cert phone. Kevlar
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted February 7, 2003 Report Posted February 7, 2003 What I ment was has the de-certification process messed up the phone if it was not done properly? so if thats the case what about re doing the process again?
Guest Gorskar Posted February 7, 2003 Report Posted February 7, 2003 The way you install the smartphone version is to run the file on your computer I think, and then it will automatically copy the cab file to your phone, and give you an option of where to install it. It took quite a long time to install on my phone, but worked fine.
Guest beckd Posted February 10, 2003 Report Posted February 10, 2003 To address the problem regarding the game dropping to the home screen for some users: Here are a few possible causes for this issue: As your phone is used and programs are run, the free memory space can get fragmented. This isn't such a big deal until you run a program like MSR which uses nearly all the available execution RAM while executing. If the memory is fragmented, MSR will be unable to reserve large areas of contiguous memory space to decompress and store game graphics, sounds, & data that are needed to play the game. In addition if any programs that have run have leaked any memory, that memory will become unavailable to programs like MSR. And finally, the OS is supposed to shutdown other programs that are currently running in memory. If the OS is unable to make the memory available to the application so the application fails. Other possible causes of this problem are people modifying their phones, and also any resident drivers that may take up additional memory. By performing a soft reset, you are doing 3 main things: clearing out any leaked memory, defragmenting the memory space, and finally, shutting down all programs that are currently running. I can only speculate why a few people are having some persistent problems with this issue, but there is one thing that will resolve this problem irregardless of the cause and that's to reduce the overall memory requirements for MSR. I already aggresively reduced the requirements in order to get MSR on the Smartphone in the first place. I'm in the process of reducing the memory requirements further and will hopefully make an update available shortly. Thx, Douglas Beck Digital Concepts http:/www.dig-concepts.com/
Guest kevlar Posted February 10, 2003 Report Posted February 10, 2003 Cheers Douglas, nice to know you care, great games AND aftersale support, you should be working for Orange of MS :) Kevlar Ps, incase that came across wrong, that was a compliment :wink:
