Still getting crashes when starting a new game. Tried every compatibility combo as well as futzing around with Nvidia controls.nothing. I also tried on my wife's single core laptop that has integrated graphics, but it crashes as well at the same point. My wife's laptop usually plays games I have trouble with on our main rig (Mechwarrior 3, Legacy of Kain.) but this game fail on both. Downloading the ISO today, I will see if there is any difference when installing fresh.hope someone finds a solution.I was looking forward to playing this one!!! While I really love the classic games available here, it's fantastic when newer games, especially ones as great as Shadow Man show up.
I'm not downloading this version, because I own the disc, but I'm excited for all that get to play this game for the first time. Excellent atmosphere, music and great story are what's in store for you. I play mouse + Keyboard, but controller fans can get in on this one. Even though the graphics may be blocky for some (nobody around here, I'm sure), the sounds and gameplay make this title rise above.
Not sure what is missing from the Rip, but play it anyway. If you get the hunger for more, do a little looking, d/l the ISO, or check yer local resale shop. You just may find a copy. Acclaim is a major distributor, so there are plenty of copies available. I really like Acclaim games, and you should at least try some of the titles available here to see for yourself. For example: Turok is a lot of fun (for being about 13 years old), and Re-Volt is spectacular!
Please, PLEASE, check out Re-Volt, which is HANDS-DOWN the best RC Car game I've ever played. Thanks again, guys, for putting this up!:OK.

Thanks again, guys, for putting this up!:OK: yeah, acclaim has great games:) actually re-volt is one of the most downloaded games on abandonia by the way, we are still waiting for the scans (=P. I see, downloaded the game and yes, we have a rip. The whole game is too big to put on site.
However, there's a full cd version in the iso cellar, but only registered members have access. Here's link to the full game image thread once you're registered Holy crap, I'm such an ASS! Yep, I'll upload those as soon as I finish scanning the map (I have to use the scanner at work, 'cause that sucker is too big for mine at home. Dang.Looks like I gotta whip myself again tonight (where's that cat 'o nine tails?) no problem (: pm me when you have time and i'll help you upload them. The first, but not quite.
You need a special utility that allows your machine to read ISO files as if they were real CDs. Virtual CloneDrive or Daemon Tools are two examples of such programs.
Interesting, but are there any other ways? I did some research on Clonedrive and although the reviews were good, I found some horror stories where it messed up some users computers because of a conflict with Window's XP Service Pack 2, so I'm hesitant to install it. The only thing I really need is the music as I downloaded the main one first as opposed to the ISO cellar one. It there a way to simply extract the music and put it in the respective music folders? Interesting, but are there any other ways? I did some research on Clonedrive and although the reviews were good, I found some horror stories where it messed up some users computers because of a conflict with Window's XP Service Pack 2, so I'm hesitant to install it.
If you don't wanna virtual drives or CCD, burn your image to a 'real' CD. Use this: (freeware and damn good) Swallows (almost) any CD image format you throw on it. BTW: Congrats if you're able to screw up something on your PC with that soft. However, ol'games are really best mounted on a virtual drive. Too much CD read access with the according spin up /down delays and noises.
Remember the old CD drives were 2-4-6. Speed and didn't spin down. But it's your choice, of course. Interesting, but are there any other ways?

I've got WinXP SP2 and Virtual CloneDrive has been my virtual drive of choice for half a decade now - no problems with it, ever. The only thing I really need is the music as I downloaded the main one first as opposed to the ISO cellar one. It there a way to simply extract the music and put it in the respective music folders?If you can figure out where it is stored and have a way to reintegrate it, then probably yes. IMO, however, that's an overcomplicated solution to a simple problem.
Also, if you really have to go that way, you can burn a CD using the ISO file (remember you need to use your burning program's specific option for burning images to disc). Same comment applies here too - overcomplicated solution to a simple issue.

Remember the old CD drives were 2-4-6. Speed and didn't spin down. But it's your choice, of course. Ok, burned all the files from the ISO cellar into an ISO file but now all I have is a dvd with the iso file, I need to make a bootable game.
Did I do somehting wrong? Those horror stories most likely come from people who messed with something they shouldn't have.

Same comment applies here too - overcomplicated solution to a simple issue. Tried to install clonedrive and got a warning from windows about potential problems that it could cause, so I opted out of that option for now. I have imgburn and burned all the zip files into an ISO file but it won't boot up when I pop on the DVD. What's the correct way to set up the files and burn it so I can get a bootable disk.
(And then after I install it, will transfer the music files to non music version I already got from the main download). Ok, burned all the files from the ISO cellar into an ISO file but now all I have is a dvd with the iso file, You did exactly what I told you not to: burned a CD with the disc image as a file on it. Again, your program is supposed to have an option called something like 'burn image', 'burn disc from image' or 'burn image to disc' that is meant specially for disc images. That is what you are supposed to use. I need to make a bootable game.Are you sure you're not confusing the term 'boot' with the meaning of 'autorun'?
Those are two very different things. I know I may look like a dummy, but want to make sure how to do it right. In my directory are: covers.rar shadowcrk.zip shadowman1.nfo shadowman1.r00 shadowman1.r01 shadowman1.r02 shadowman1.r03 shadowman1.r04 shadowman1.r05 shadowman1.r06 shadowman1.r07 shadowman1.r08 shadowman1.rar shadowman1.sfv shadwfix.zip sman-d3dcfg-bh.zip smfixexe.zip Do these need to be unzipped before I use Imgburn to burn them to a disk?
Do I have to create an image file before I burn it to disk? I don't want just an image file that won't autorun, or a disk with simply the above contents which is what I got when I tried the 'write image to disk' that a previous suggestion said. Please have patient with me as am still learning this. Hit shadowman1.rar to unzip the image file.
You can use WinRar or 7Zip (to do this. Use a new folder to store all the files that are in the archive. You don't have to 'create' an image file, the CD image is in the archive. The post in the ISO cellar says it's a Clone CD image, so you'll get several files. One of them should be a *.CUE file.
Use 'Write image file to disk' option in ImgBurn. Point ImgBurn to the CUE file to burn the CD. [Edit] Now that I think about it, before you try to burn the CD maybe post what files you have.
Sometimes the providers use an extra compressor. Can be ECM or such. Then you need to do an extra manip before you can use the image. I downloaded this not from the iso-cellar, maybe it will work, maybe not. I can always carry my savegames in case of trouble I hope anyway.
So, the first impression of this game, that it is hugh, boring, and with full of things-to-collect, very much like Myst. This means I want a map. But of course that doesn't exist (at least an ingame-map would be basic). And the game does not allow alt-tab. And it has a long, unskippable intro. And certain effects makes me vomit (fortunatelly the game itself is bearable, although Blair Witch Project did way better not making you vomit). Interrestingly you play as a black guy.
The movement of the caracter is not, it looks like some strange rapper hi on crack. Also making the protagonist a black guy is one thing, showing him ass-naked right at the first seconds is another (and they really do it). Most of the human-characters acted like statues. The dog(s) were awesome. The fact that I had to go right in the trace of the zombie-dog, without weapon or any kind of confrontation, wasn't. The story is what makes me not delete this game - it is made in an appealing way. Of course it can be totally ruined later by transforming this into a Doom-like actiongame (and this game has an awfull way of movement, camera-angles, and so on).
It is also not at all obvious what to do, why, and how, so I'll hunt down the manual if possible. Oh, and the old 'unlimited spaced trouser syndrom' comes back with this game. For no appearent reason, right at the beggining, you can collect 'cadaveours' - they look like human-sized ripped-out human hearts.
And you can collect 13 of these just until the Temple. For no appearent reason. Oh, and a full list of secrets would also be nice. I've met the first fights, and the game seems to have serious flaws. First: not enough that there is no automap, but the colouration just cofuses you further. Second: life-replenishment comes from red bulbs. These come from killed monsters or from pots.
But they disappear after a short while. What is a problem, as during fights you CAN be damaged. And smashing the pots are required for gathering cadaveaurs too.
So I say this is bad design. Now enemies: I met 2 kinds. Zombies are plentiful, but they are just target-pratice. Oh, don't try to 'snipe', that has no use.
But use the autoaim. Anyway, zombies when die blow up, damaging you if you are nearby. Someone really could mention this (either NPC you talk with). Ok, I know you're 'ShadowMan' for long, but com'on, you're still a level 0 ShadowMan after all those years! The other kind of enemy was as I heared 'slasher'. They are stupid, but strong, and have a ranged-attack.
When you get into shooting-distance (try the autoaim to determine this) they stop shooting whatever they use. But they are bad aimers anyway.
Now when you get close they start to go berserk: they hit melee, and relativly fast go forward. This is the part where the AI lacks sanity: this berserking seems to work for a given time, during which they can not change direction. One other thing though what makes fights more difficult then comfortable: the monsters seem to regenerate to full health if you don't kill them by constant shooting. I mean if a monster needs 4 shot to be killed, but after the 3rd shot you miss, or something, you'll have to start all over again the whole procedure. (It seems the protagonist too says something rude when this happens.).
More bad news: the autosave do NOT use a separate saveslot. It uses the last file you saved your game. It makes making backup-copies kinda tedious. Found 3 more enemy: - bat-man: only one appeared yet, and it seemed event/location-related. Just like slashers coming from your behind. Anyway, this is baddd, because it flies directly above you - where you can't hit them - and shoots you from a distance. - manta: ok, at least they are not piranha.
But they are fast and small, so the autoaim helps little. Not to mention they appear when you swim, and that has tedious controll (up/down turns you up and down, the 'jump' button makes you swim in the direction of your head. Don't even ask how you come out from water.). Also it seems many times you simply can NOT hit them, whatever you do. - two-headed torso: these grotesques shoot you. The first opponents what are made well I say, they are queite usual compared to other shooters. May I ask one thing from the designers?
(Of course designers spit on the users, but oh well.) Why in a game with infinite opponents put them in finite resources? Especially when the game is nonlinear, meaning you constantly re-do the areas. Not to mention you also suggested to re-visit everything when you've reached the maximum character-level?
I only hope the magic-energy will be enough to open every door (darn, you need 500 cadavearux or so just to have maximum life!) - using mana in fights seems to be an idea you instantly drop out. Woot, I played this still.
This will work for me as casual-gaming. So, what's new? Well, I learned to use all the controll-button.
There are plenty, but in the actual use, it feels comfy. But beats me if I know what 'holster' does. Some bugs: - I thought I maybe missed a video, so I re-done some part of the game in a fast way, and when I equipped the pistol - right when I got it - instead of the left/right-hand button I hit enter. And all of a sudden I got the Assan in my inventory. - Right at the beggining of the Temple of Life is a lava-pit you have to jump through with the help of a sinking grill. It was a pretty hard thing for me, and when I reached the other end finally, I saved and quit. When I next started the game and reload the savegame, instead of that place I was at Jaunty.
Fortunatelly I made an extra save (before that lavapit though), I used that just in case. Oh, and the solution of that jumping was not to just jump from the end of the grill, but more importantly not to let the grill sink too much (and I don't mean being burned 'cause the sinking here).
Oh, the death-animations are unskippable. And you actually do not die, but restart from the latest warp-point. But I still don't like that, so I use reload. I also found my first 'secret'. Although EVERY page on the net, even those who specify this point to the PC-version, says that the second room from the right where you get the Baton gives you the 'Flaming Grill' (means burning animation constantly on the portagonist) special, I got the 'Play as a Duppie' special (transforms the protaginst to some kind of beast). I doubt Abandonia (or whoever uploaded this game here) messed with this - maybe someone could tell who uses the ISO-cellar version (or have an original copy)?
Also though EVERY netpage says you get a 'Book of Shadow' item with this (or any if you don't have one) secret, in this version you don't get any. You have to use the 'secret' option in the option menu.
I've reached Asylum the first time. Sme discovery: skulls (mana-balls) never disappear, but there is an even better thing: the pots are replaced too when you warp between places.
Well, at least not just monsters are replaced. Oh, this means life and manaorbs are replaced. Sadly cadaverauxes are not.
(I heared about a bug what makes Govis reappear too, so that way you can gather more then the 120 Dark Soul.) There is a cheat-menu you can have in the game (PC-version, remember). This offers you invincibility, levelchange, items, even testmodes from different areas (you can include or exclude 'events' for example).
Half the cheats are from the root-menu, the other half is from ingame. Sadly I see no way to enter the 'game shark codes', what means the secrets have to be found manually, and as there is no trustable source on those. I also look for videos. Videos are stored in a specific menu, what is not ingame, so independent from your actual saves, what is good. Now finding all the videos is another thing, as some are at best not obvious. Of course certain videos are unavoidable, like the intro, or videos the first time you enter an area. Here are what I've found from the optional videos: - After you entered Deadside, but before talking with Jaunti, talk with Nettie again.
She'll be really pissed of you didn't talked with the snake already:ouch: - After the first time talking with Jaunty, talk to him(?) again, and also with Nettie (I'll refer them as 'the two NPC from now). - After you opened the first Shadow Door, talk with the 2 NPC. - After you get your first Dark Soul talk with the two NPC again. - After being level 2, talk with the 2 NPC - After entering Asylum the first time talk with the 2 NPC Oh, in case you wondering, there is a walkthrough with more then the basics: Seems to be a good one, but many times it is washy, and at the point it says he had the first 100 cad., the list only summs at 95. Not to mention, in the second area it describes I've found 2 cad.
Less it seems (although I tried hard, and there not too many directins are avaiable). So after I'll have at least all the gads (and possibly the bloodfall-climbing stuff), I'll go and make a handdrawn map on the already visited areas. (The walkthrough is still very handy, as certain things and ways are not at all obvious.). I restarted the game, just for the heck of it, drawing a map. So, here are some cadeux-info!
In Bayou, the first time, you're able to collect 14 cadeux in all. Just go around everywhere (one is at the back of the temple). The most 'tricky'-ones are in the Temple, where you have to push a crate away. In the Marrow Gates the first time 9 are avaiable. None is really hidden, but you have to jump around for some of them. The most 'hidden' two are in a hut-like building what stands on wooden poles, and a lot of dupie is in its area.
In the Prophecy Chamber you get a Dark Soul, and the 'Prophecy', and another cadeux is avaiable at the lvl2 door. Well, this was the easy part, next time comes the Wasteland, and the Temple of Life. The worst thing that confuses me, is the Asylum, what seems to have some backdoor. It is also disturbing that you should go and find at least one of the Five to get an extra video - where you'd whine about that you can not kill them not having the L'Eclipse. Thx dosraider, fortunatelly I was almost the very beggining, so not much effort re-doing everything. Sadly I've found a graphical glitch: when you go through certain passageways (which looks like made of metal, and it seems to be artificially lighted), the light simply is not there, but total darkness.
This is at best annoying. At the first occasion it seemed it was connected to climbing ropes, but later proved otherwise.
I have no idea how to avoid this, maybe save, then instantly reloading helps. I've also experienced cadeux-loss. At the beggining of the Wasteland there are on a - at that point unreachable - platform 2 pots. Both have cadeaux in it. Now when I first reached that platform, only one was there. I THINK it had to do something with only shooting one pot open previously. About Wasteland I can only tell for now, that it leads you in circles by design.
Most things are just about visiting everywhere, but most of the times here you'll be prevented going further by not just the usual waterfalls, but also lava. There are even cadeauxes right before you, still unreachable, because of lava.
Well, have to come back later with gads. Still try dead-ends, because they can net you with a cadeaux or even a Dark Soul. Currently I have 56 cadeaux, and 5 dark soul.
The Temple of Life is even more serious, I think a full map can not even be considered to make without gad what allows you to walk on lava, because I think certain rooms can only be visited through tiny halls in the walls. Until this you gather 3 weapons. The shadowgun: when you level up, it can be charged to a certain amount, meaning it'll start shooting stronger bullets by time.
Pm Fastrack V8 Serial Number. Still, finishing monsters never require a charge. The charging time from minimum to maximum takes the same time, independent from your level. The assan: Here I make the note that all voodoo-weapons do function as melee-weapons when you're out of mana.
And as pots respawn when you warp around, you only need some time to spend to port eg. To the Halls of Prophecy to recharge you mana if you really need that. This weapon normally shoots a projectile on the cost of mana.
The baton: Ok, here turns out that voodoo-weapons might have secondary-functions. Normally this shoots the same projectile as the assan, but if you step before an altar (it is obvious what altar when you're ingame, as there is one right where you get this), and click the attack-button (NOT the action button!), then you are teleported to the twin-altar of the used altar.
Because these altars come in pairs - think on them as waypoint-teleporters. This function do NOT cost mana. Now the tricky-parts for this time: to reach the Temple of Life (what also gives a waypoint to your Teddy), you have to climb rocks.
Where you see a seemingly unreachabe doorway high in the rocks, beside an opening what you can reach via a rope, you can reach it by going up from the ground on a skin-bridge, then after a couple of steps turn around, and you'll see the way, what otherwise tends to blend in the background. Hope this helps. I can't believe it: I'm bloody stuck. But first the god news: - sniper-mode has an adventage: it allows you a much wider aiming-range. The use of this is against the flying deadwings. Ok, they can easily hit you, and 99% of the time it is much more easier to just run through the area they occupy, but still. - there is a rolling-move!
If you run (or could have say walk, as there is not distinct running and walking), and press crouch (which usefullness in itself I highly doubt currently), you roll! Looks bloody good.
Now for the actual play, you have to teleport back from the Temple of Life to the Prophecy Chamber, and go through the lvl2 door there, then from there walk another Pass of Shadow (not that you can go any other direction). Then you reach Asylum's Gateway, what is again full of closed doors and lavapits, so it is again bloody streightforward (and not a little literally this time). Then you reach Asylum's gate. Because the Gateway actually starts from some outer walls. To get in - or something -, you'll have to aquire the 'Engineer key', so you drop down at the Main Gate, and look for a lava-canal (hey, oh-so-much-evil-Five, applying all those lava wasn't that good idea after all, eh?).
Again it is bloody obvious where to go, as although the area is hugh, there isn't a maze, or something here. Now after some seconds I've reached a room with moving platforms (firt of this kind). My problem is, at the end of the passage I'd have to jump on a wooden platform - but I simply can not do that! Even worse: I almost every time fall INTO the platform, and the 3D-panels stick into each-other (nasty bug, happens when polygons get close to each other many times).
I even checked youtube for a visual guide, and no, there is no trick to avoid this, you just have to jump on that shit. This is really frustrating men.:cry. Ok, I've solved it. I went right next to the platou, facing it almost directly. Key word here is almost, so mike slowly reaches the lava. When that happens, in the last milisecond he grabs the platou - woot.
This time the road made an inward spiral. There was a trick cadeaux-grabbing: there was two moving platform, and besides it a pipe with two. Barels on it I guess. Yes, that wa sit. Inside of them were cadeauxes. Now reaching the pipe is minor matter, but officially you would need at leas the basic gad to get back t the moving plaous I think. But the one brought you here CAN be reached with a little luck.
And here came a new enemy! At least they squeeze like pigs. But they are like that nasty serialkiller from Spawn (who killed children) with big hooks, and damage hugh. But they are fortunatelly stupid. If you manage to be behind them (or at least not front of them) they tend to not notice you!
Free shots:idea: And although they are fast when startting waving the hooks, going backwards while shooting still helps. And you can try to walk around them too.
But above all if you start shooting like mad (the hell with charging the shadow-gun!), they eventually stop. The bad thing is, they tend to walk around long distances, so in the middle of the fight anotherone can join the fun. One other thing to mention: these pigmen were building in a room some kinda mass from tortured souls or something. Although I saw no real point, I destroyed these, just to be on the safe side. A nasty trick the programmers also inserted.
When you climb into the shaft from the yellow corridor, you have to choose 2 holes to jump down. The one on the right, wich is even guarded by a smashing-door, leads to NOWHERE! And you can't climb back!
And if you jump into the void, Mike becomes tiny, more tiny, even more tiny. Where the hell this building really is? For the fun change here into sniper-mode just to see where he landed, then reload / teleport out (this last one is not suggested, as returning here takes a looong time, and is not a life-insurance). Hit shadowman1.rar to unzip the image file. You can use WinRar or 7Zip (to do this.
Use a new folder to store all the files that are in the archive. You don't have to 'create' an image file, the CD image is in the archive. The post in the ISO cellar says it's a Clone CD image, so you'll get several files.
One of them should be a *.CUE file. Use 'Write image file to disk' option in ImgBurn.
Point ImgBurn to the CUE file to burn the CD. [Edit] Now that I think about it, before you try to burn the CD maybe post what files you have. Sometimes the providers use an extra compressor. Can be ECM or such. Then you need to do an extra manip before you can use the image. This is following the theme about the Capt C's quest for ISO download and installation, dosraider, r.u.s.s.
And everyone helping. My two cents. From the download link provided by r.u.s.s. (** indicate files I don't believe are essential): **covers.rar - Box cover and PC CD-ROM cover scanned image shots of the original game, BBFC 15 certificate warning labels, 'Printed in EC' and Austrailian address for Acclaim distribution location. This works on inital testing although the lettering for confirmation on the Load/Save/Quit screen is different.
If have you played any other version you would know what I meant. **shadowcrk.zip - claims it is 'Crack for Shadowman v1.0 by S810 for UK version', also includes a shadowman.exe replacement. 731kb, dated 9/20/1999. **shadowman1.nfo - Info file, looks like it is from mobygames.com, relating to the release (does not include file listing but mentions ECM and RAR as compression types).
Also includes super simplistic installation instructions. ------ shadowman1.r00 shadowman1.r01 shadowman1.r02 shadowman1.r03 shadowman1.r04 --**** All of these files contain a SHADOWMAN1.img.ecm file of the same (large) size shadowman1.r05 shadowman1.r06 shadowman1.r07 ------ shadowman1.r08 - Contains a SHADOWMAN1.img.ecm file (same size as above). Also includes: SHADOWMAN1.sub, unecm.bat, and unecm.exe. Shadowman1.rar - Contains: SHADOWMAN1.ccd, SHADOWMAN1.cue, SHADOWMAN1.img.ecm (same size as above), SHADOWMAN1.sub, unecm.bat, and unecm.exe.
**shadowman1.sfv - hkSFV file used to verify file validate checksums. I downloaded the application and all 10 files required were CRC verified as 100% OK. **shadwfix.zip - claims to resolve 'returning to the desktop or system freezes' issues and includes a Shadowman.exe replacement. 722kb, dated 6/18/1999.
'Please Insert Your ShadowMan CD' dailog is displayed. **sman-d3dcfg-bh.zip - claims to be a ' SHADOWMAN D3DCONFIG.EXE NO-CD crack'. This would not run on my Windows 7 operating system, not even with XP service pack 2 as the launch setup. States it is a 32 bit non-compatible application. **smfixexe.zip - No text file included in the zip. I can only assume it is another Shadowman.exe replacement fix. 856kb, dated 8/19/1999.
As with the shadowcrk.zip, this appears to be working upon initial testing. I don't want to burn a CD, play from a virtual drive or anything else since I know it kind of worked from my hard drive. With that in mind, this is what I did to get it to work from my hard drive: - Downloaded shadowman1.rar from the link r.u.s.s. Provided (Thanks r.u.s.s.!!).
- Used 7-Zip to extract the files from the RAR to a temporary directory. - Used UltraISO to extract the files using SHADOWMAN1.cue as the source, to an entirely different temporary install.
- Used the D3DConfigUtility.exe that came with the download from Abandonia (just the EXE file, not SETUPREG.EXE). I copied this one over the D3DConfigUtility.exe that was extracted from the SHADOWMAN1.cue. - I tried this next step both ways. Executed D3DConfigUtility.exe and since Install or Cancel were the only options, I installed.
I also executed Setup.exe and proceeded with the installation from there. NOTE: Music has to be selected as an additional option during the setup process, with the associated additional disk space usage increase. - After attempting with no success from every angle to get the ShadowMan.exe that came from the SHADOWMAN1.cue extraction to at least launch, I finally went through and tried the files from the above download and used the ShadowMan.exe that I downloaded from Abandonia. Then I checked out all of these other executables. Three out of four executables have been working upon initial testing. This resolved my initial issue I had with no music playback.
Now there are two other known issues I am aware of which may or may not be resolved. One of the issues involves being dropped back to the desktop every time I died while playing the Asylum: Gateway level in the areas that were accessed using the Marcher Gad.
Not before visits to Gateway or after (maybe because by then I was stronger and wiser and didn't die). The other 'issue', which is actually beneficial if it would glitch out consistently, was in the way I play. I would find an unknown container(s), quicksave the game, then shoot the container(s) to determine the contents. If it was something I needed to resupply, like ammo or cadeaux, I would pick them up and continue.
If it was health mana which disappears if not used or something I could possibly use in the near future but not right now, I would restore from the quicksave. This would often bring about the unexpected result of random quantities of extra gold skulls floating about in the vicinity. Odd.but not unpleasant.
I don't know if I am going to play it all over again just to test out all of the working EXE files. I do know that I didn't have music initially though from the Abandonia download and yes, I did extract the music files and yes, I did download the file from Abandonia on more than one occasion, uninstalled the previous version and re-installed the latest copy with the same results. I also tried different XP configurations and even tried it on my XP notebook with the same results. Ok, shutting up now.:silence. (snippets of your quote). This means I want a map. But of course that doesn't exist (at least an ingame-map would be basic).For no appearent reason, right at the beggining, you can collect 'cadaveours' - they look like human-sized ripped-out human hearts.
And you can collect 13 of these just until the Temple. For no appearent reason. Oh, and a full list of secrets would also be nice. First issue, there is no in-game map which I guess is what a lot of people complained about with this game. But does anyone really have a real life map of unexplored 'wilderness'? Here is a link to a scan of the overview map that came with the game (not my doing). I take it by now you have figured out who Loa is and what the Cadeaux are for.
RE: List of secrets. In one of the files for the game (ShadowMan data language Ig_eng.txt) there is a list of Secrets. I don't know what or why everyone else is calling them something else, but I trust the people who created it first.
The list: Big head mode Disco mode Flame on mode Pea soup mode Comedy shoes mode Giant Stetson mode Shotgun head mode Trippy mode Invisible man mode Area-51 Mode Play as Nettie Play as Duppie Play as Deadwing Play as a dog! I got most of them except Clown shoes, play as duppie and Shotgun head mode. One of your future posts mentions the secret didn't follow a walkthrough location or something. I have played this a couple of times and the order of the secrets follows the pattern you find them in, not necessarily location specific. Sure, the location is the same, but the secret may not be. The game grows on you after a bit:OK.
Thx OM for all the words, but that map is not the map I want. By the way that map is the official map included in the box of the game originally, currently it is all over the net (on pages like gamefaqs.com). On the other hand I want the full-detailed map with all 500 cadeaux and such. Maybe - but sadly I'm not sure - this version is included in the official guide, but until I'm not sure, I won't spend money on that. Of course I know WHAT (and not who) is a loa, and the reason of caduex I know of.
Currently though I could not use them still, I only have 74 cadeaux and 9 dark souls (I finished Cathedral of Pain for the first go). Woot, a list of secrets hacked from the gamefiles! At least that's trustable! I hope sooner or later we find what to write over to activate all of them. Until that, I report when I find secrets - even if just for the location. Now back to my mapping: So, last time I said I reached Asylum, roamed around. So, at the point you had to choose the correct shaft to fall in (interrestingly a little before that, on the yellow corridor is a locked door what will only be openable from the other side, so keep in mind for later), you immediatelly fall into a room, where you find the engineer-key.
The problem with it, that it is guarded by a new type of pigmen: it has rifle. (Actually your first encounter should be a little earlier when finding a govi, but.) The problem is of course, that picking up a new equipment takes precious time, so you can end up by pure accident pretty damaged here. Against rifle-wielding pigmen just stand still, charge your gun, and strafe whenever they shoot a blast. The horrible thing can be when you encounter one in a compound place - there take out a secondary weapon too, and blast the hell out of 'em! Useful to know that if you kill an enemy with anything appart your shadow-gun, they don't leave life-bulbs for you. I figured out 'holster' too. Now the alt+weapon is absolutly uncomfortable, and with pressing Enter, you holster/draw out both items in your hands, so just use the enter-version whenever you want to holster something.
Holsetring makes entering the inventory too many times, otherwise useless. The main use of holstering is, when you have to climb onto something.
To move on it (like on ropes) you need both hands, but just to hang on the object, one hand is enough. One hand is also enough the pull yourself up on the platform you're hanging on.
Now the engineer key: it is a standard key, what opens doors inside the Asylum. The 'button' you have to push with this, is some kinda orange machine, does the same as the large wooden buttons outside Asylum (in Deadside). As it is only a key, it has no use as a weapon, and using it also not cost any mana. Ah, and you CAN equip it in Liveside! (Just for the heck of it.) Now when posessing the engineer key, do NOT go back right to the Asylum Gateway warppoint immediatelly, but discover everything inside the Aylum's main gate (what you can, and that won't take long). Actually you'd need to warp back to the outer walls of Asylum, as you arrive to the Front Door via a passage too high inside the wall. It is also unnecessary to warp back, because when reaching level 3, you will feel that your shadowgun DO gain power.
Also there will be right before you a train, what will carry you into Asylum's Cathedral of Pain. CoP is a place of gortesque. It really has a horroric atmosphere if you ask me.
But here I've encountered another glitch: when I arrived with the train, the screen went unusable, everything started to blur into each other. The solution was to save the game, then reload that save. Then everything went back to normal. Here you should first visit the sideways for some cadeaux, a dark soul, info. Sadly when you reach the Five in Deadside, no new video is coming.
Oh, by the way you'll geta warppoint here for your teddy. You'll also find schism-gates, what are teleporters to the Five on Liveside. Choose one, I suggest Video Nasty Killer.
Immediatelly you arrive you can go back to Nettie and Jointy for a new video! If you insist, you're allowed to have a nice chat with VNK, but you won't be able to harm him. But you'll be able to experience his fighting-style.
First: from far he uses granade-launcher (10mm attachment to his rifle). Second: From far and middle he uses bullets. He has an M-15 machinegun (or something similar). Third: if you get REALLY close, he draws out a rambo-knife! Oh, and you can find first-aid kits in Liveside as repleacement of life-bulbs.
Good to know. NOW suggest I to go back and examine those leftover doors for 4 more cadeaux (with this you'll have 78 cadeaux). Do this before going to open level 3 Shadow Doors to not forget! (remember, there are 2 lvl3SDs in the Prophecy Chamber) Oh, I don't know wether it has any use, or it is just a hint for the player, but at the room of the Home Improvement Killer (on Deadside) there is a SWITCH. As I only entered to VNK yet (and immediatelly ported out), I know not if it has any use, but it do lights up the ~shrine of HIK. And you can see furnitures of him. EDIT: oh, another glitch I rmemebered after reading OM's posts: At a time I was standing on a slippy pipe, and I fell from it - into lava.
In the middle of the fall I hit Esc, and tried to reload. The result was, that the game (and as there is no Alt+Tab the whole computer) forze.
Therefor if you are in the same situation, just suffer the death, and reload after it.

Therefor if you are in the same situation, just suffer the death, and reload after it. Speaking of the Alt+Tab situation, that doesn't work for sure, but the Windows logo key will drop you back to the desktop (at least it does for me). It won't help your game saves at all, but I've used it to avoid computer freezing and then to kill the ShadowMan application from the Task Manager.
If you want to check out another 'bottomless pit' glitch, there is one that I know of that seems to work without fail, but you need the Marcher Gad for it. It's in Asylum: Gateway when you drop down to the right from the entrance and follow the fire-breathing ducts over the lava pit and then around to the right. When you get to the area with the two moving platforms, you will end up on another duct above the lava after you leave the second moving platform. Walk off the bottom end of the giant 'L' shaped duct and you will fall and fall and fall.
Now after what you had said Twillight, I have to go back there and check out what the sniper mode view looks like.;) I still cannot find a use for the individual holster command. I know about the both hands free/both hands equipped function, but not holster by itself - either LiveSide or DeadSide. I didn't know about the roll maneuver.that would have helped me out before I finished the game, I guess. I have the controls mapped to the keyboard with keypad 5 being backwards movement and keypad 2 being crouch, so the two controls were never actually checked out in combination. Considering there was only one point in the game where I actually used crouch, I think maybe I should have figured out there was some other purpose for the action since it went almost unused. One other thing about having your hands free besides grabbing ledges and edges. You can jump farther with your hands free.
I know it sounds silly, but I think it is along similar lines to your freedom of movement when your hands are free while swimming. If you swim with an item in one hand, your direction is pulled mainly to the side of the free hand and not the equipped hand.
I guess the same goes while jumping.just think of the last time you tried to run and jump with something large or heavy in one hand (or both). Now that your Shadow Gun is gaining some power, you'll find that a full charge will tend to target things on it's own when fully charged. You still have to be somewhat facing the target, but not dead on. Try it when you encounter your next DeadWing or you are on an area/platform above an enemy and you'll see what I mean.
For me the windows-key do not work. But good to know it MIGHT work for others. About onehand-holster: I use it, because I only use secondary items in case of emergency, so I want it only a key away. One free hand makes avaiable to jump platforms too, while gun can be 100% ready still. And I have a tendency pushing buttons beside each other, and as secondary weapons do NOT fire when you draw them out from holster, they don't drain my mana dry at least. But big thx for the tip about empty hands! (Especially as one secret will require a hard jump.) Also thx for the tip about the shadowgun's autoaim, I started to notice, and wonder what it is about.
Last tips from me for today: Some monsters when killed do not respawn, especially event-related monsters (like the first deadwing). The tricky thing was, that currently (me being higher level) fixed monsters appeared on new positions in already explored areas. When found the first piece of L'Eclipser, Nettie gave another video. About videos: despite the manual states all cutsceens will be stored inthe Video menu, this is not true. For example when you first see the Asylum from its main gate - the video has no text - is not stored. Oh, and I didn't check this, but MAYBE the respawning of things were necessary for things like the train what brings you from A.
Gateway to the Cathedral of Pain. Assume you somehow forget to collect the waypoint there, but warp out, you'd be totally stucked. But this feature was implemented in the concept, and the problem it rises was solved adequately, so I no longer mind. Next time: The Temple of Fire! From the Youtube video that seems to be multilevel, so I already hate mapping it, although I've just reached the territory. Ok, I'm stuck. I'm in the Temple of Frie, with the same situation as the last time I was stuck: I simply can not make a jump to a platform what is at the same level as my head.
It simply seems impossible. (And I feel proud finding out myself how to find the 'secret' doors in this temple. Before anyone ask, it is a must to find out that those plates on the wall must be beaken, so you can not miss this.
These can be broken by shots from the shadowgun, and later the bloody curtains will need the Flamebou for the same purpose.) A new opponent is in this temple: Sisters of Blood. They 'activate' when you push buttons. They can fly. They shoot projectiles what has horizontal size too (not to big, but still mentionable). But they are slow. Unfortunatelly they usually come in pack and in compound spaces.
:sos:Ok, here seems to be a serious glitch. In the Temple of Fire in the room with pillars you have to climb on to push a switch, I can not climb on the first pillars. It seems this happens with me when the platforms have a certain height (very rare fortunatelly).
I tried to climb various platforms in the room, specificall the lowest ones (height is at Mike's head) and the second lowest ones (around the height of the whole screen when standing next to it). The result was, that from a certain side I could climb one pillar (attached to the side of the room, right under a torch on the wall). From the other sides I can not do this, so I think something is glitchy here. Now despite all this the protagonist HAVE TO climb these pillars. So I need help.
If you offer your help, please send me a PM with an e-mail adress where I can send my savegame files; then you climb to the button at the top, do nothing else (no pushing the button, no opening pots - no nothing please), save the game, and finally send me back the files.:sos. The Temple of Fire is a pretty big place. I am going to guess where you are stuck based on what I know. Sorry, I am not in the habit of sharing my email address or file sharing/swapping.nothing personal!
Your install of the game might be glitchy, but I'll give it my best shot anyway. Your previous post mentioned breaking down panels to be greeted by the Sisters. I am assuming you have not passed the first Trial of Fire, have not found the level's warp point and have never seen a swinging hammer. Do you know what a ziggeraut is?
You also mentioned a room with pillars, one medium low pillar against the wall below a torch and a 'button' that needed pushing. There is only one room in the area that I know fits this description. Indeed, only one room in the area with actual fire-lit torches. Does the room have fire-breathing heads and spikes popping up and down from the floor? If this is the area, great! If not, I don't believe this tip will be wasted on others. This is a method of jumping that will save a lot of time in the future, if you are not already doing it.
Approach the lowest pillar in the room which should be very near the platform against the wall with the torch above it. Continue to press forward into the pillar while jumping but do NOT let up on either control until after you have made it to the platform's surface. Now face the next pillar you can jump to, press forward and jump again but do not release the controls for either move until ShadowMan (he was upset when Jaunty called him 'Mike' in Darkside, so I won't either) grapples the edge of the next pillar. What happens is that ShadowMan actually hits the pillar with his knees followed by having his chest slam into the pillar which gives him the extra momentum to reach the edge.
This method works well for almost all jumps unless the target is a short distance you do not wish to overshoot, not a long one (there is a future jump you'll need to make that you need to learn how to short jump for). Hope it helps.if not now, it will.
That is the room. I perfectly know what should I do in what order, I even allowed to choose from 3 patforms to start with - no success with any of them since hours of real time. I mastered jumping (at least 'long jumping'), and only at the start of the jump you have to push the forward-button to make the whole longdistance. The jump-button has to be pushed for the whole duration of the jump. I even tried combining jump with rolling - no success.
The only new thing was, that rolling do not makes you fit through spaces what you can not pass while standing. I don't now if the version of the game here is glitchy (downloaded from Abanodnia), or my computer sucks, but it seem there won't be any future playing this game, as I have no other versions, and the necessary jump isn't executed, and without the Gad from this temple I can not do any progress. In case of this is a problem, I can upload the files into a webpage. (Ok, you won't bother with this Ohne Mitleid, but maybe someone else will have the will.). Hey Twillight, mine was glitchy too but I could still finish. What happens if someone gets you past this point and you encounter another glitch that you wonder if it is a glitch or just something else?
You'll never be sure again. I did go and grab what I think is a good copy though, even if that did have it's problems figuring out what was what too. Read post #59 in this thread if you want to know the details, it will save you a ton of time. I know the post is pretty long, but the process was very simple. I really wouldn't give up on the game just because of a little setback. It is pretty awesome and only gets better with the more gads you collect.
If you do decide to reinstall though, save your Saves files directory and your CutScene.inf file or you will be very, very upset. Oh, if you want to see what you might be missing, let the game run after the intro screens. Once it drops to the 'New Game' menu, you wait about 30 seconds and some level animations will begin to play. There are 9 total: 1 - Wasteland Temple of Life 2 - Temple of Prophecy (Marcher) 3 - Asylum: Cageways 4 - Temple of Blood (Nager) 5 - Deadside: Marrow Gates 6 - Temple of Fire (Toucher) 7 - Asylum: Undercity 8 - Asylum: Lavaducts 9 - Asylum: Playrooms You don't have to wait (except for the intial startup of Acclaim etc.) too long for the next one. When you get back to the Acclaim screen, press space or escape (probably any key) which drops you to the New Game menu, wait another 30 seconds and there you have another video. They cycle through in order.
I'm thinking it was some sort of demo they could keep running in the background on a screen in a store. :omg:Shadow Man lists compatibility as Windows XP. Aside from that, JDownloader was a nice application, but it refused to download every other file from the site in the ISO Cellar, so I did the download manually. Once that was complete, I found out I only needed to download three files: - shadowman1.rar - an application to extract the files from shadowman1.rar - an ISO application to extract the actual game files using SHADOWMAN1.cue, which is contained within shadowman1.rar I already had the last two applications. The only other thing needed was my existing Saves directory, the CutScene.inf, the ShadowMan.exe and D3DConfigUtility.exe applications from the original download at Abandonia.
Best of luck, Twillight! Funny thing.a small typo in Shadow Man turns into Shad Woman:mhh. :omg:Shadow Man lists compatibility as Windows XP.

Best of luck, Twillight! Funny thing.a small typo in Shadow Man turns into Shad Woman:mhh: You're a lifesaver OM. I got confused what I'd need from that archive, so I checked the net for other possibilities, and found a version on rapidshare. Guess what: I extracted that, burned it, installed, runned setup - and when I try 'play', it simply does squat. There goes a cd.
Now I'm downloading the stuff from the iso-cellar link. At least we know You had no problem with that. There is the possibility that your keyb respons is too slow.Not likely, I know, but I had that problem once, don't remember what game, but switching the keyb solved the problem.:unsure: I went and tried to anger the dogs on myself to overload my graphical memory, and yes, the many details seem to cause some kind of lag on my keyboard. I don't know if the cause is my keyboard, graphic-card, CPU, or what, but the conclusin seem obvious: 'buy a new computer, sucker'. (or someone could do the jump for me) Besides if anyone interrested: when porting in and out from the Temple of Fire the once-activated Sisters will still be active when you return. The only good thing is, that broken plates will be repleaced too, so they can't overwhelm you.
Another note: with the pistol in the starting area barrels and planks can be shooted, so that means free cadeauxes for you. The dark souls can not be collected yet, but if you just got a wp somewhere (or even better never even left Liveside at the beggining), go for it to have the first 100 cadeaux sooner. New enemy: crocodiles. They are lazy bastards, meaning no threat at all. Just do not swim beside their head, and everything will be good.
But as I'm stuck for now for good, I won't d any mapping on that. You have your answer in the ISO cellar topic, no need to post twice the same. No, this is not true.
Your post lists a lot of downloads to burn a CD. My post, as you quoted and edited to state ' blah blah blah', is a way to play the game by installing to your HD. I did a hex file compare vs each of the installs and found differences only in those which would affect performance. Otherwise, your download of all of those file is a waste of time. Refute if you must. Do it yourself first before that though.'
I already own the CD' or not. Downloaded all the files associated with the ISO and tried the game and it looks great!
Unfortunately, I have ran into serious problems with this game. I put all the ISO-files directly into the main-download (the one you download straight from Abandonia), except the cover-images of course. I also replaced the original exe.file with the one in the shadwfix-zip. Well, everything ran perfectly, until I discovered that it was impossible to equip anything else than the shadowgun. (which has gotten the name Asylum: Undercity in the inventory??????) Strangely enough though I could equip items when I was in liveside. I tried the other exe-files, shadowcrk and smfixexe and with those I could equip stuff without problems but instead I couldn't hear any background music or gushots.
From what I have read in the other replies it seems others have had these problems too. Does anyone know of some way to fix this mess? I,m all out of ideas myself:wacko. I know this has been an issue of sorts, but it worked for me and I guess, Twiilight. I installed this on my notebook running XP and my laptop running whatever this is.Windows 7? And it works just fine.
Sound, no glitches so far. Replaying the game for cadeaux mapping.
If anyone feels like looking at the extensive library listing of files within this game, you can do a lot of things. Change Shadowman's clothes, listen to all of the sound bytes.other things. Hours of exploration beyond the game. The sinister joke is one I have already told more than once:spyder.
It is, the full version can be downloaded in our own ISO Cellar, another forum section. Don't tell me. That's one of those ghastly sites that won't let you download it unless you're a member which (of course) cost money.
I don't want the music that bad. However I have found that if you first install a demo version then take out the music folder, then install the version of Shadow Man on here, after that you then pop that music folder into the audio directory you'll at least have the theme music and the music for a couple of levels which is better than nothing, and it's FREEEEEEEE!!! Here's a quick workaround to add music to the Abandonia RIP, using the.cue file from the iso cellar page. When extracting the game files from the.cue you get basically the same thing that the RIP has in the zip it gives you. Except in the.cue file, in data/audio, theres a music folder with wavs in it, next to sfx and speech. Just drag it over to the audio file in the game that the RIP installed and problem solved. No mounting/burning necessary.
Also, as someone previously stated (don't know if they ever finished), I've started mapping out the areas in the game, since the only 'map' we get is that little lap card thing that came with the manual that only has the Paths of Shadows and it's not even very accurate. So far I've done the Swamps, The Marrow Gates (up to the prophecy chamber), and the entire Wastelands, including the Temple of Life.
The rest should be relatively easy since most of them are indoors or in temples and such. But theres alot of overlapping rooms and floors and such, so most rooms will have only their most outstanding features on the map. Hopefully more to come in the future. Just gotta figure out how to upload them once i polish them.

If you may not be fully aware of just what social marketing involves and you would not be alone in that thinking. Social marketing is the subtle use of such social networking sites as Facebook and Twitter to help promote a company, and idea or a brand. Since the first social networking sites sprung up, they have become more and more popular, especially with the younger demographic, and this is something that has not gone unnoticed by those people in the advertising industry. It is not just the big corporations, who have millions to spend on advertising, who can make the most out of social networking sites, if you have a product or service to sell then you too can use these sites to promote yourself or your business.
