Marian Moderator Graduate Boomer Registered: 07/04/00 Posts: 15628 Loc: near Yosemite in California	Great news! Players are in for a treat. I'm tempted to buy it again and play it again (even though the retail-box version is sitting right here).

JeanK Settled Boomer Registered: 07/04/09 Posts: 568 Loc: Florida	I wonder how different it is? Funny, I just pulled it out to replay. Does anyone know what the Director's Cut has? _________________________ "So, Holmes. What are we doing now?"

JeanK Settled Boomer Registered: 07/04/09 Posts: 568 Loc: Florida	I'm definitely going to get that then. I remember the game kind of left you hanging. The sequence may or may not clear up stuff but I'd like to see it. Thanks! _________________________ "So, Holmes. What are we doing now?"

Rushes The Three Pipe Moderator & Reviewer True Blue Boomer Registered: 07/10/05 Posts: 22505 Loc: UK	According to the stickied Win7 thread in Glitches: You must edit the Scream.CFG file. To accomplish this in Windows 7, go to C:/Program Files/Nucleosys/Scratches. Find the Scream.CFG file and right click. Select Properties and from within that window, change the Open With option to either Notepad or Word Pad. Change the Rate from 0 to 60. Save the file, exit and restart the game. But I'd suggest trying it as is first, without tinkering, to see if the BigFish version has taken Win7 into consideration (it doesn't look like it). _________________________ "Bleat, Watson -- unmitigated bleat!" ~ Sherlock Holmes
