Me too! My old disk version runs just fine on my Windows 7, but I do have to make a couple of tweaks. A tad over $2 was just too hard to pass up though!

My all-time favorite game!! Ah, brave Christof and the lovely Anezka. Mad and Marian, you're in for a treat! When you're ready to play, I'll join you. Hopefully, Drac will, too!

I will! I had a problem with a saved game late last night and went to bed. Christof has already cleaned out the silver mines. When trying to save Anezka from the bunch of vamps and szlocta (or whatever they're called!), I forgot to watch my health and died. I loaded a previous save and when I got to the scene outside the nunnery, the 3 vamps were already dead, there was nothing in the streets and the nunnery door was locked. Grrr... hope I can get past it tonight.

Awwww Drac, I hope it works properly for you. Game ending bugs are the pits. Do you have a save?

Several - I'm a save-a-holic! Hopefully one of them will work.

Hi Sharon - you should definitely go for it! Vampires are such fun! That's a bummer, Drac. I know you've played the game enough to get back quickly. I think the silver mines are tough!

Barb I played both Redemption and Bloodlines some years ago and then sold them both on .... But Redemption was my favourite of the two

Hi Mad Better get Redemption on GOG! Don't you get the urge to play it again? I've played them both many times.

Oh, shoot, Drac! That's a glitch I've never had, but I have been killed many times in the nunnery!

I've never had this glitch before either playing from my disks on Windows 7. Tried an earlier save and this time Ahzra didn't appear. Going to try an even earlier save this time... very frustrating. I've also found the GOG version won't override previous saves. I think this is my 5th time to play this game and I've never had these issues before.

I'm still using my original disks, too. I couldn't get it to run on Windows 7, but it works fine on XP. That's really a shame you're having those problems. hope you can get it working.
I'm really getting the urge to play now! I'm sure I've played it at least 20 times.

Oh, it works quite nicely on Windows 7. You just have to install in compatibility mode. I have it listed in our Windows 7 and games thread in the Glitches forum.

My laptop has XP, so that's what I use. I have a newer laptop with 7, but I hate it, so I keep using the older one. Go figure...

" I've also found the GOG version won't override previous saves." Heck !! Hope you are able to get sorted, Draclvr !! I can overwrite saves running the GOG version in WinXP. [There are only 12 saves though so can't go too mad.]

Well, I went from Grrr... to outright snarling. Any previous save I went back to had problems with missing characters and no way to continue in the game. I uninstalled it, ran CCleaner on the registry and am going to try it one more time. If the issues are still there, I'll let GOG know and just install it from my disks.
