Dowloadable Patch for Prince Interactive

Is there a patch where I can play Interactive in XP without glitches? Thank you

From the bowels of the org:

Try http://prince.org/msg/7/262976


http://prince.org/msg/7/141590


In the Google custom search box (upper right of your screen) type in Prince interactive xp. Search should come up with a slew of threads. Hopes this helps.

Make an .INI file

Name it INTRACTV.INI

Place it in C:\WINDOWS



Copy and paste the text below in the .INI file


[ZIPPER]
CDROMDRIVE=C:\INTRACTV:
WORKINGDIRECTORY=C:\INTRACTV
SOURCEDIRECTORY=C:\INTRACTV
BUFFERSIZE=20000


Notice i have mine directed to the C: Drive
*This is because i copied the game folder directly to my computer*
Change the drive lefter to that of your CD Rom Drive. Or copy it to your computer like i did


Open the game folder, run the program PROGRAM.EXE and the game should run straight with out installation
Good luck biggrin

It was terrible enough at the time of it's release, playing it now is even more wrong.

RIP sad

Apparantly: an ini file is just a plaintext file with the extension .ini instead of .txt. You can create one in notepad.

Thanks for your helpful reply.

I never had this, but I just "Googled" it, and found this:

"...The CD-ROM also features six complete songs, including several which were previously unreleased, 52 song clips, four full-length music videos, 31 video clips, and nine morphs.[2] The private club contains clips of musicians, including Eric Clapton, Little Richard, George Clinton, and Miles Davis discussing Prince."

WOW.

"He's a musician's musician..."

Now if Prince hooked up with the makers of GTA6 for an oversized easter egg where you can go to Minneapolis, steal his chopper and all his cars, go to PP and First Avenue and free roam about in the vault......... biggrin

What would you do?

I have the CD-ROM but it's so old, OSX won't open the Installer. lol

I just went into the MEDIA folder.

I was curious about it at the time, but wasn't quite a fan enough to cop it.

I see there is a Karaoke .mov file that has the real instrumental to "Kiss", although I don't know what it has been compressed to sound-wise.

There is a video of a woman saying "touch me!!" Damn what kind of game was this razz

Kiss sucks. It's super-low quality AND mono.

I think if you go to the media folder you can find all the videos and music without having to play the game. If I remember correctly, that is.

I got it working! But I have trouble with the safe in recording studio and putting CD into machine in the lounge! Is there a way to correct these? I've already have scratches removed from the CD so the game will smoothly without skipping!

I believe its because of the screen resolution, I could never open it myself confused
and putting CD into machine in the lounge! Is there a way to correct these? '
I think only some cds work and they only play a 10/20 second music clip
I've already have scratches removed from the CD so the game will smoothly without skipping!

I copied the game to my hard drive and i run it fine with the info posted above
