Runs directly off of the disc.[1] |
|
|
- This game is not available digitally.
Essential improvements
Play without the disc
- At least copying the game files to a folder on your hard drive is the bare minimum requirement for more fixes, if needed.
- Music will now loop correctly, and will play on cue 100% of time as side effects to this fix.
How to run the game completely off the hard drive[2]
|
- Copy all of the files from the disc into a folder of your choosing.
- Download the _inmm.dll installer and extract it, then run the installer.
- Open your game CD in any application that rips audio CDs, and rip the audio into an easy to find place, preferably into a folder in the game’s directory.
- Open
_inmmcnf.exe , and on the "Method" tab, change the "default" option to DirectShow.
- Select the "_inmm.dll" tab, then click "add".
- Go to the folder you ripped the game's music into. Then select all of the "track" files.
- Select "Save", go to the folder you installed Darius Gaiden in, then save the ini file.
- Close
_inmmcnf.exe , then drag darius.bin onto the _inmmcnf.exe file itself. This will pop up a message asking if you want to patch the executable. Select "Ok".
- Launch
loader.exe whenever you want to play the game, or rename darius.bin to darius.exe , and launch the newly renamed file to skip the launcher.
