it worked running under admin..and changing the shadowing to 0 thanks I'm guessing that the default install folder is Program Files - Try installing it to your user folders the next time, and you should be able to avoid running the game in elevated mode (as administrator).

Hi Guys I am having the same problems with this game with windows 7 professional, I have even unistalled my antivirus, installed the game and ran game using Administrator option, but I still get the same response Alter Ego has stopped working etc. It is really annoying as I got the game from the USA which means if I cant get it to work its going to be a lot of trouble returning it as its been opened and I dont think the excuse of it wont run on my PC will be accepted. Can you guys help Very Frustrated safc

ok got the admin to work for the game but now i dont see any of the characters as im playing the game only the subtitles.. If you're playing the game in 64-bit Windows 7, go to Computer > C:\ > Program Files (x86) > Viva Media > Alter Ego > Engine (hover mouse pointer over this file to make sure it's the Config file), double click it, open it in notepad, and change ShaderLevel = "0" and AntialiasingLevel = "0", go to File > Save. This should bring the game's characters back into full view.

cruise, those posts are from 6 1/2 months ago...
Where did you find that fix? I've looked but am unable to locate it. The game is listed in the Windows 7 and Games thread as working perfectly on a Windows 7 computer with a dedicated 1 GB ATI 5870 video card. Before we start recommending these kinds of changes, we might want to know more about computer hardware. However, since this is such an old thread, I guess it's moot.

I used my MicroscopiX vision on the new laptop to read the binary code from the game on the computer's hard drive as well as the RAM transistors. This fix is for when the computer switches to Intel HD graphics.

Not very sound advide to be giving someone to be altering files then.... I suggest you start a new thread if you need help with your laptop and read the documentation that came with it on switching graphics.
