Abandonware already?

I LOVED Revolt. One of my favorite sandbox times would be using the UFO car on the stunt level and getting crazy air, and then slowly hover down to the ground with ridiculous agility.

Awesome game. Noted for legal downloading haha.

I really am amazed that this is abandonware, I mean comeon— nvidia didn't give it the 1999 game achievement of the year award for it to end up like this, it really is a superb game!

The company that bought the rights to Acclaim's games (in one big convenient package) already have made a version of the game for the PS2 only, but under a new name- RC Revenge Pro.
Â*Â*Â*... they ruined it.

Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*1. "I get the no CD in drive error and after I put the compatibility for '98 I get another error: Fhunk(Kernel32.dll) any idea to make it work on XP?"
Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*2. "There's no music in this game"
Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*3. "crc-check, failed. ERROR: patch not applied"


1. It's a problem with the SecuROM protection on the CD that they ripped it off of, you need to have the 1207 patch on it (it has a no cd crack on it) for the game to work on newer computers.
2. If you want to hear the sound, you'll need to download the 0916 patch (1207 disables in-game music), then find the music files from somewhere.
3. You're looking at the wrong patch, the patches for this game you just unzip wherever you installed the game - done.

I don't find this game buggy at all other than the start of the race countdown on XP- but only with the tracks that came with the game, user-created tracks are fine.

If anyone is interested or has problems playing online I could make a full .iso of my re-volt disk and upload it somewhere.

<< Sweet.

Thumbs down

Thank you for reminding me of this gem!

I downloaded the game and raced a few times. Then I decided to test the network support but as the others already mentioned it didn't work. So I began investigating.

What I did was I downloaded an iso from emule. I installed the game, applied the 1207 patch and suddenly it just worked.

And yes, DirectPlay is supported, but will be dropped on all directx-versions for whatever comes after windows xp ( vista and forward ).

Please tell me if I should upload / how I upload!

Cheers

It seems the multiplayer funcition of the download here is broken (?). A healthy full version could be made available in the ISO cellar, and if possible the download here should be replaced with a rip of the healthy ISO?

Yes. As I said, I downloaded the game from emule with an image of the cd. I successfully ran a LAN game with 4 people. Now, I believe somebody wants this, so I was wondering, where do I upload?
