Re: [Audyssey] Rail Racer Not working on Windows 7
Hi Valiant, Good idea. A lot of older games such as Rail Racer 1.x was not designed with User Account Control in mind, and it is possible UAC is causing the game to have problems saving or accessing files. Running as administrator may resolve that problem. Cheers! On 2/26/14, valiant8086 valiant8...@gmail.com wrote: Hi.

Re: [Audyssey] Rail Racer Not working on Windows 7
Hello Ian, There are a lot of questions and comments in this message I'd like to address so I have decided to answer as many as I can with a question and answer type format below. Quote I am running Windows 7 64 bit. I have all versions of the .NET Framework installed from 1.0 through 4.5. End Quote That is entirely not necessary. Windows 7 comes with a fully operational version of the .NET Framework that is 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, and 4.0 compatible. In most cases installing .NET 1.1 will support 1.0 and 1.1 apps and of course you can install 4.5 if you really need that support. However you don't need every single version of the framework from 1.0 to 4.5 installed. Major overkill there. Quote I'm not sure if I have Managed DirectX, though my games use it, but I include the dlls in a a lib folder for that. End Quote Generally when you run the DirectX web installer it will install Managed DirectX along side the standard C/C++ Directx libraries assuming you have a compatible .NET Framework installed which you do. One way to know for sure is in Visual C# or Visual Basic .NET just checking the available libraries will tell you if Managed DirectX is installed and available. Quote Entombed also works for me, does it use Managed DirectX? End Quote No. Entombed is using a newer .NET multimedia library called XNA Framework which was Microsoft's official replacement for Managed DirectX back in 2007. Quote I installed railRacerDemo10. I got it from the BlindAdrenaline.com website within the past month so I expect it is the latest. End Quote It is not. That is Rail Racer 1.0, the original demo, which means it is considerably out of date. The latest stable version is something like version 1.5.3 and 1.0 is obviously many versions behind the latest stable release. Che also has a version 2.0 in the works so that demo is very very old. Quote I didn't see the 1.6 update, where is that? End Quote My bad. I meant 1.5.3 when I said 1.6 in a prior post. Quote If you know how to get a better error out of this I'd love to hear those instructions. End Quote Well, probably the only way to get more detailed information is by opening the memory dump files in Notepad and reading the error messages. That can be tedious, but that will often give more detailed and specific information as to why the game crashed.

Re: [Audyssey] Rail Racer Not working on Windows 7
Hi Thomas, You said: However you don't need every single version of the framework from 1.0 to 4.5 installed. Major overkill there. I say: I didnt' explicitly install each. I think they all got installed due to my installations of Visual Studio, and their service packs. I only mention them all to provide as much information as possible and so we could skip intermediate emails where people suggest installing one of them. Thanks for your notes on version numbers. Unfortunately the link to the 1.5.3 patch was broken. I get the feeling that just getting that patch might solve my problems. But thanks also for your note about checking the memory dump files, if I acquire the patch and it doesn't help then that will be my next step.

Re: [Audyssey] Rail Racer Not working on Windows 7
Hi all, Sorry for my delayed response to this, a friend just told me about the thread a bit ago. Rail Racer 1 is no longer supported, as it is ancient in computer code terms. I have not taken down the demo of RR 1, thinking a few folks might want to play around with it, but looks like I should do that to avoid confusion. RR 2 is in final beta form and dozens of folks have already purchased it. It is far superior to rr 1 in almost every way, and I will be releasing a demo for it as soon as I can get caught up in real life. It works fine with windows 7 and 8, the only problems I have seen are on really old XP systems, and I'm pretty sure I have that problem fixed for the next update of the beta. You can find more details if you want at the website: http://www.blindAdrenaline.com/railRacer I don't check this list that often, but you can mail me off list if you like at: blindadrenal...@gmail.com Be sure and check out the web page first though as it will answer most questions. There is also a thread on the audio games dot net forums that I update as patches and updates come out.

I think my next step is to find a copy of the 1.5.3 patch. Unfortunately the link to it on the main BlindAdrenaline.com page is broken.

Re: [Audyssey] Rail Racer Not working on Windows 7
Hi Leo, I do know for a fact that Railracer will run on Windows 7. I suspect the problem is you are missing a .NET component or dependency for the game. First, though, which version of Railracer is this. Is this Railracer 1.6 or the new Railracer 2? If it is Railracer 1.x you need to get and install Managed DirectX for .NET if you have not already done so. Without it you will get nowhere with the game. Second, what exactly is the error message. We can not help you debug the problem if you simply assume everyone knows what error you are referring to. I can tell you that we don't, and that kind of information is vital to any sort of resolution of the problem. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Rail Racer Not working on Windows 7
The game crashes for me as well, so maybe my description of the crash will help. I am running Windows 7 64 bit. I have all versions of the .NET Framework installed from 1.0 through 4.5. I'm not sure if I have Managed DirectX, though my games use it, but I include the dlls in a a lib folder for that. A search for download managed DirectX takes me to this page: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35 Where I download and run the installer, only to have it tell me that a newer version of DirectX was found and so installation doesn't need to continue. Entombed also works for me, does it use Managed DirectX? I installed railRacerDemo10. I got it from the BlindAdrenaline.com website within the past month so I expect it is the latest. This is the exact link I used: http://blindadrenaline.com/downloadCounter/download.php?x=Rail+Racer+Demo I see a link for the 1.53 update, but it gives me a 404 when I click it. This is the exact link: http://www.blindadrenaline.com/uploads/rrUpdates/rr153Update.zip I didn't see the 1.6 update, where is that? When I run the game I get a dialog that says this: Game Engine.exe has stopped working, windows is checking for a solution to the problem. After a few seconds that disappears and is replaced with a dialog that says this: Do you want to send more information about the problem? Additional details about what went wrong can help Microsoft create a solution. By clicking the view details button I get: Description: Stopped working Files that help describe the problem: C:\Users\Ian Reed\AppData\Local\Temp\WER73D9.tmp.WERInternalMetadata.xml C:\Users\Ian Reed\AppData\Local\Temp\WER897C.tmp.mdmp Read our privacy statement online: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=104288clcid=0x0409 If the online privacy statement is not available, please read our privacy statement offline: C:\Windows\system32\en-US\erofflps.txt Then I choose not to send a report to Microsoft. If you know how to get a better error out of this I'd love to hear those instructions.
