case decisions.

Join Special Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully in The X-Files, an all-new

Ripped:

As promised, here's the MUSIC ADDON for this great game. U now have every
single files from the 7 cd's...

Notes:

Ok...first of all, I know that this release is above the disk limit and
that some people will probably nuke it for this reason. In my opinion,
the size doesn't really matters...the most important things are :
1) Is the game good? and 2) Does it work?
Well, the answer is : 1) YES , 2) YES.

Now, about the size of the release. If people have the choice between,
lets's say, a) a kick ass ACTION game - 80 disks ; b) a great RPG - 100
disks ; c) a lame FISHING game - 40 disks. Which one(s) do u think they
will download?

The problem is that some people doesn't seem to realize that we're in 1998
and that the game companies aren't doin' small PacMan games anymore... As
a result, a lot of good games aren't released on the scene or they are
completely raped. Just a few examples:

* Motocross Madness - 71 disks. Good, it's under the disk limit...only
one problem : u need to download an extra 40 disks to access the
National Track. Total : 111 disks for the game only (without the movies)
* Mech Commander - 90 disks. Above the limit, and u have no sound, no
music and no movies...u can't even use the zoom function. Minimum size
to make the game "playable" (that is, with the sfx and the zoom addons):
241 disks.
* Tiger Woods Golf 99 - 65 disks. This one was a total rape : u only have
a few courses, u have no speech, no movies and no animations. Minimum
size to make the game "playable" : 162 disks (game + missing courses)

I could give u a lot of other exemples like that, but this is not the
point. The point is that I DON'T THINK THAT A FEW "EXTRA DISKS" MAKES A
BIG DIFFERENCE and that most of the people are ready to download them if
they are sure that what they will get is a FULLY PLAYABLE GAME and not a
rape (UNREAL was 60 x 2.8 Megs...and nobody complained about the size).
That doesn't mean that we should remove the limit (if people want the
full game, they can download the ISO or even buy it), but THE SIZE OF A
RELEASE should only be one of the criterion and not the ONLY criterion to
decide if a game can be released or not.

Ok...enough "general comments" and back to this release. As I said above,
the game is 7 CD's and everything is included here (MUSIC excepted). What
kind of miracle is this? Well, the answer is : a lot of work (3 weeks)
and some great video & gfx tools (Adobe Premiere and Photoshop). By
reducing the frame rate, increasing the compression,... i've been able to
bring this game to its actual size. If u're interested in numbers, this
represents a total of 1,627 files (1,254 movies / 309 animated backgrounds
and 64 moving icons/logos). As a result, the initial size for these files
(3 Gigs, more or less) is now...200 Megs.

Was it worth spending all this time on just one game? Well, i think so...
First, the X-FILES is by far one of the most popular TV show and I think
that all the fans will enjoy the game. Second, even if u don't watch the
show on TV, this game is certainly one of the best adventure game ever
made - the story is great, u have a mix of puzzles to solve / action parts
and, last, the game isn't linear...u have several different endings and
your actions have a direct effect on the story...which means, u can play
it several times with a different story each time.
Ok, enough talk...until next nfo, of course :)

Enjoy this great release and expect much more from us soon...

oOo Install Notes oOo

UnZip the zips, then UnRar the Rars and extract all the files in
C:\XFILES\XS\ (or whatever your install dir is). Run XFILES.EXE and go to
the OPTIONS menu and adjust the VOLUME for MUSIC.

P.S. : * U need QuickTime v3.0 or later to play this game. If u don't have
it yet, u can download it at:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime

* For those of u who aren't familiar with ACE32, the command is :
ace32 x -y xfiles.ace c:\xfiles\
(don't forget the "\" at the end)

* A few hints & tips:
- Make sure that your hd isn't fragmented when u play the game
or it will be very choppy. Always defrag before playing and
avoid multi-tasking (the game doesn't really like that...)
- Do not change the game options (u can turn ARTIFICIAL INTUITION
OFF if u don't want help during the game...but don't change the
other options).
- When u see a message saying 'RIGHT CLICK TO CONTINUE', do so
and wait until the message disappears (it might take a few
seconds)...but don't do anything else !!!
- Check your mails & use the comp in your office often (the
password is SHILOH)...and don't forget to use the binoculars
and the digital camera every time u have an opportunity to do
so.

* Be sure to check the X-FILES site for more infos about the game,
hints, screenshots and other cool stuff (u can even download the
FULL intro there):

That's it...enjoy!
