I noticed that in ACT there's a built-in compatibility for 'Mobil Rally Championship' which matches both ral.exe and var/ral.zog. I noticed the RC2000 demo version 2 works, and demo 3 does the same as the main game. A lot of 1999-2001 games crash randomly for me (currently) but this RC2000 issue is unique!ĭoes anyone else have a similar 64bit Win8.1 setup with Nvidia graphics (latest driver, even if your card is different)? Please let me know your findings! I'm not sure if this is down to my PC configuration, or graphics card/driver (I did have issues with it in the past on my old 7800GS+ card with newer drivers).
I tried a manual install (copying the install folders from my old XP machine), but the game still launches a silent black window. no 'Not responding' message), so I'm a bit stuck! It (like International Rally Championship, which I found a workaround to install for here: International Rally Championship (Magnetic Fields/Europress) - how to install if setup.exe won't work) has it's own installer built into the game executable on the CD-ROM.īasically, on my PC (see my signature), when I run the ral.exe installer/game on the CD-ROM, it launches a black screen and nothing happens! No crash, no error, looking in Task Manager it looks like it's happily running (i.e. One of my favourite games is Rally Championship by Magnetic Fields/Europress.
