Problem with arcanum exe!!! HELP!

Post by Luppus »

OK here is the thing.

When I start arcanum.exe it turns up an error that says:

ARCENUM.EXE is linked to missing export Ddraw.dll

So I can`t start arcanum. Any ideas how to remove the problem? I tryed to put the ddraw.dll file under windows/sistem32 but didn`t help. Also tryed to put it in arcanum folder, still no good.

After hours of trying I managed to get arcanum to work.

I discoverd that I had an older version DirectX than needed so I updated it and no the game works perfectly. :D

error

Change the cd to the instal cd and when the panel comes up click on repair. This should fix the problem. Also run an update, but beware the update and repair may need the level 127 mod reinstalled.
