Playing as Good, I've come up against a problem in Land 9: my city keeps getting overrun by the Aztecs.  I've forgotten how I beat them before.  Any hints would be appreciated.

I've reached Land 5 and the game is working great.  Thanks to Cowgod and Sylcai for their help.

I have BW1 installed on Windows 7 and the creatures unlocked for me.  But that was after I installed the game in the directory suggested by Sylcai in the pinned thread above.  And I have both Patch 1.1 and Patch 1.2 installed.

Are you running Vista?  You might want to look at this thread, which is about Windows 7, but I understand the fix suggested here would also work for Vista. http://www.bwfiles.com/boards/index.php?topic=5199.new#new

After installing in a folder I created called C:\Users\Public\Games\Black and White, and installing both patches,  my version number now shows up as V1.20, and the save game problem seems to be solved.  I should also have mentioned that I had to do a direct copy of the audio files from the CD to...

What about my other games, like BW2 or Spore?  Do they need to be installed in the Games folder as well?

Well, I just found that out the hard way, starting up the game after a break, it wiped all my save games and left me at the beginning of Land 2.  :( I will try uninstalling and reinstalling in the directory Sylcai suggested and see what that does. EDIT: It will install there, but not in its...

Tried running it as an administrator and still got V1.00.  But the game works, so that's not a problem.  Something that I noticed after arriving at Land 2: I changed my symbol to a heart, and then on Land 2, it started out as the two circles that is the default symbol.  I changed it back to a...

No, I'm not running it in compatibility mode.  It works just fine, so the version thing is no biggie, just me being nitpicky.

Well, I thought I would install BW2 as well and see how that worked.  So far I have found out the following: 1. The Tiger Unlocker has the same problem as Vista (I thought 7 was supposed to fix Vista's problems  :laugh2).  The solution is to edit your registry as described in this thread...

Decided to install BW1 on my computer that is running Windows 7.  At first I had a problem with the game not saving, but I uninstalled and reinstalled and that seems to be fixed.  Now I installed both Patch 1.1 and 1.2, but my game still shows V1.00 on the screen when you start the game.  Both...

Thanks, I was able to get a screenshot from within the game and uploaded it to my gallery.

I have finished the second Japanese land with a city that I'd like to make a screen capture of, but when I try to use SnagIt (which I have used before) I can't get it to do a screen capture with BW2 maximized and SnagIt running.  It used to do it with the Print Screen button.  Does the new...

I was reloading the game (didn't want to have to run the creature all the way from my temple to the fight area, which is all the way on the other side of the land).  Once I stopped doing that, it took me three tries to win the fight.

I've finally reached the "mirror" creature fight in my latest game of BW1, and I can't seem to beat it.  I know that you have to heal your creature many times as the mirror creature does so, but it seems that I get to a point where the heal miracle no longer works and my creature's life scale...
