Vista support?
« on: April 22, 2007, 09:25:15 AM »
I downloaded the demo to take a run at this game, but it doesn't seem to run in vista, which kinda' blows. It even mentioned vista support on a few of the websites I looked at concerning the game. Has anybody else had luck getting it to work? Is it only the demo that doesn't work?

If I can get it to work, how can I legally purchase act cadenza?

Thanks, guys.

It works on Vista, I havent tested it but one of the people i used to netplay used ti for a while, Vista caused MB to lag a bit.

Very odd. I haven't been able to get it to work at all. I wonder if it's a demo-only issue. =P

I still can't find any information on this running under vista besides Animeruko saying somebody has used it. The demo doesn't even attempt to work.
I was actually looking to get into this game, but since I don't know anybody with it, I can't test it without buying it, and it's expensive (not to mention I can't find it for PC, only PS2).

If anybody ever runs across somebody else getting it to work well on Vista, I might still pick it up.

Act Cadenza is what I'm curious about. Re-Act is alright, but if I'm going to buy the game, i'd rather go straight to AC than hippy around with older versions and learn stuff that isn't applicable.

I've only tried out "Melty Blood: Re-Act" on vista and i know that works, i've never tried out the "Melty Blood: Act Cadenza ver.B Demo" on vista yet so i don't know about the problems your having however you seem to be a bit confused about something. There is no version of "Melty Blood: Act Cadenza" for the PC, that game is a re-balanced arcade port  only released the PS2 on august 8th 2006, The Demo you have for the PC is for "Melty Blood: Act Cadenza ver.B" This however has been confirmed that in June, Melty Blood: Act Cadenza ver.B will be released for PC as well as the PS2. So if that is what you've been trying to find that online to buy, you'll have to wait another 2 months or so, the exact day i dont' know but thats the month its planned to release. Hope that clears up why you can't seem to find the PC version.

I wasn't just looking for AC to buy. I couldn't find the PC version at all to buy. I figured if i found someplace selling Re-Act, then they'd be selling AC when that's out.

I was just trying the AC demo on vista, and it definitely doesn't even think about working.

I haven't tried this myself but if you click on the shortcut to the program and go to properties there's a tab for compatibility. Maybe you could set this to Windows XP SP2 or earlier and mess with the other checkboxes there.

That was my first idea. It didn't change anything. ;)

The demo gives me, like, 20 errors as it can't find a single one of its own image files, lol.

do you have japanese support? that could be one of the problems if it can't find certain files.

Should be available at Windows update.

I remember Irfanview couldn't open my images because I didn't have it.
