Hi Dark, No, whatever he did with Airic the Cleric he definitely did something wrong as its dificult to get the game to run on a number of computers. Even brand new computers.
For instance, I have an older Compaq with a 3.6 GHZ Processor with 1 GB of ram and Windows 7. Ok, according to the system requirements the game should work. Guess again. I try and play it and it frequently locks up. I'm guessing not enough memory because it requires a huge amount of memory to run and since Win 7 is also a memory hog there probably isn't enough for both. Alright so back in October I purchased a new 64-bit Toshiba with a duel core 1.66 GHZ processor, Windows 7 64-bit, 3 GB of ram, and because it is a duel core system I figured it should be fast enough and have enough memory to play Airic. Nope. I get as far as the intro where Airic wakes up and it locks up and crashes. I have a desktop PC I recently fixed with an Intel Pentium 2.8 GHZ processor, 2 GB of ram, running Windows XP. It won't run on that system either because the game won't run on XP. That's three systems that should handle any decent audio game, but Airic won't run on either of them. Its a poorly designed game as far as I am personally concerned. If we were handing out ratings I'd give it a 1 out of 5 stars just because of the lack of stability and poor performance. Cheers!
