Shadow Warrior worked yesterday.....

Post by Guest » Sun May 22, 2005 2:43 am

It ran perfectly yesterday and I played it for several hours, in fact.

.... but now, inexplicably, today, it won't run.



It begins to initialize, but then immediately after the "keyboard started" message, the following error comes up:

SafeMalloc failure for 0 bytes.

Which halts startup.

Any ideas?

Try Dosbox!

Okay, first of all which operating system are you using?

Windows ME? XP? 98?

Hmmm..... if XP isn't working you should give Dosbox a try at: http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/

That will make it easier for you.

i had the EXACT same problem with Shadow Warrior....untill i started using JonoF`s port :wink: I think i changed a couple of settings in the VDM sound shortcut and it sorta "unsticks it" I never could figure out exactly what the problem was though....try deleting the SW shortcut and replacing it....i think maybe somehow something gets reset somewhere.Try the source port but!!!
