 Troubleshooting
Thanks to your E-mails I managed to answer most, if not all, of the technical questions that may arise when trying to run the game. * Cult's best performance is in 24-bit color depth and up.
* It is preferred to remove the task bar while playing. Q: When I walk Zack around, there is a black square around him. As he moves around the compound whatever he walks over becomes black!
A: Do you play in 256 color mode? That might be the cause. Use 16-bit color depth and up. Q: When I run Cult I get the message "File-Access error 75".
A: Delete the directory c:\TempC and run Cult. Q: When I run Cult I get "Can't load (or register) custom control picclp32.ocx".
A: From the "start" menu select "Run..." and type
"c:\windows\system\regsvr32 picclp32.ocx". Q: When I run Cult I get "Run-Time Error '5': invalid procedure call" .
A: The solution is simple yet annoying. The windows system font must be set to "Small Fonts" using the display options. Right-Click your Desktop. Then click 'Properties' > 'Settings' > 'Advanced' > 'General' > 'Font Size:' Here select 'Small Fonts'. Q: During installation I am asked to "Abort, Retry or Ignore" when one of the files is copied.
A: Press "Ignore" - It won't cause any problems. It just means that you already have the file in question. Q: I don't have the file msvcirt.dll .
A: Email me at Cult@Studio-Blum.com and I'll send the file to you directly. Q: When I press <NEW GAME> in Cult I get "run-time error '424': object required."
A: My fault. Download the latest version. Q: I get "Run-time error 16: expression too complex"
A: This is the most annoying bug in Cult. I tried to fight it in every possible way (including a long correspondence with Microsoft) but it is way too stubborn! It appears on some machines, and just doesn't let go. The best advice I could give you is to try to run the game in windowed mode, when no other program is running simultaneously, and save the game often. email me at Cult@Studio-Blum.com for further support.
