Running the blood.vlp results in error message.

Post by Guest » Fri Sep 09, 2005 6:50 pm

When I try to run the blood.vlp I get a "16-bit ms-dos subsysstem" error. It whines about some "invalid program file name, check the PIF file."

Do you have any clues as to how to get my fav game running?

blood.vlp is the shortcut that is used in the blood xp build guide on this site. I got it to work on another comp but this one refuse to get it running.
Moreover, the vdmslaunchpad asks for a bleeing password when I unizip it. Only on my comp though. I mean, why would the shortcut (step 6) for vdms whine about a pif file in a temp folder:s

Man, this bothers me^^

I had some weird errors like that come up the last time i was running Blood on my comp,you sure you got it from the buildXP link? it sounds like mayby a setting on the new OS\machine is scewing ya.I know this is probably useless to you but if the computer your trying to run it on has been exposed to the net,see if your Autoexec.nt and config.nt files are still where they should be.Sorry :( ...anyone else got any ideas? :?

It's possible to play Blood in high-resolution with this guide-
http://www.glidos.net/blood.html

However, I discovered that when playing Blood with Glidos, the TNT boxes are no longer rendered in 3D. I only played it a little bit so I'm not sure about the other objects. Here's an alternate way to play Blood if you can't get it working.
