Does anyone know of a site where I can download Call of Cthulhu-Prisoners of Ice BESIDES HOME OF THE UNDERDOGS. Thanks ;D
I think that's one of those games you'll be hard-pressed to find anywhere else BESIDES HOME OF THE UNDERDOGS . Consider buying it.
Well, I probably won't buy it, unless you would give me step-by-step instructions on how to download at home of the underdogs.
You won't buy it unless you can download it ??? ;)
Fawful, try:
1) Go to the 'Prisioner of Ice' download page, here:
http://www.the-underdogs.org/downloadfile.php?file=games/p/prisonerice/files/prisonerice.zip&id=1395
2) Scroll about halfway down, until you see a blue banner, with a picture of a dog in a space helmet, and a 5 digit code.
3) Type the code into the text box a couple of lines down, and hit the purple 'GO' button. Remember, the code is case-sesitive - XXXXX is not the same as xxxxx.
4) If that doesn't work, try typing the code into the second text box.
If it still doesn't work, it might be something else with the way your system is set up, sorry.
I keep gettin the tricked page.
to avoid "tricked!" page,
- Disable all kind of download accelerating software
- Erase IE history, if you're using IE - it may just happen that image with code was loaded into your machine last time you tried to get this (or any other) game and now you're getting wrong image from cache all the time
- if using firewalls, unload them
- if using proxy, disable it
- if using Kazaa, emule or any other pirating software, close them - kazaa running at the time you're trying to download - seems to trick underdogs though they're not related in any way.
- Try either pressing enter or clicking on "ok" button, it had happened that one works and other not
- ask your friend to try to get the game with his computer and then send it to you
- visit www.abandonia.com and see if you can get the game from there. Or get some of the others neat oldies up there.
am already a abandonia member
put up some games there even
will try other advice, thanks
It keeps downloading a file called error.
http://abandonware.the-frenchkiss.biz/
It's in the 'Full CD (ISO)' section and is a more complete version than the one at Underdogs. You may need to register.
EDIT: Remember to click on 'American' on the front page for the English language version of the site.
thanks
but how do I keep from being sent back to the main page?
"If you have any trouble for downloading a game (back to index, for example), Please disable your firewall or each "anti-referall" software"
The same goes for download managers. I doubt it's a firewall problem, but it might have something to do with how you're trying to download it.
what's anti-referral software? Hey, I know! Would you download it and send it to me? Or put it up somewhere and give me a link?
You could send it to me over MSN Messenger! 8)
What? How can anyone send an over 200Mb file over Messenger?
I know this is frowned upon, but if you're so desperate, why not use EMule?

The same was you send a 20kb one :o
I tried using Emule but I could not get anything to download
Can you do anything?

I didn't know MSN allowed such huge file transfers. And do they work? Don't they time out or something?
And Faw, what about KaZaa? If not, then give up and buy the game, it should be easier! ;)
Or give up.
Kaaza has game files?
You should buy any software you want. *wink*

Kaaza sux. Use DC++ or bittorrent (but I'm not going to explain how they work).
I'm gonna wait for Abandonia to put it up. It's been in debate for a while and since they just put up a 87MB game I think POI should be up soon.
