@hubachecka Then I used the 3Danalyze on the silver.exe and set all the hardware limits (both cap limits and features) on, this limits your 3d hardware and should get rid of all the basic graphic bugs.
Now set the compatibility of your silver.exe to windows 98, just by right-clicking it, settings and then compatibility.
If you get a black screen after starting you might have installed the "K-light codec package" This codec package is not able to load the intro video and silver will not start.
@hubachecka Just go to your system controls then programs and look for the K-light codec package. Then de-install it. Now if you start silver and still get graphic bugs tap out of the program by pressing Ctrl + Alt + delete, open the task-manager and go to processes. You need to close your "explorer.exe" process, then switch back to Silver.
@hubachecka Now it should work fine :) if you want to start the explorer again, go to your task-manager, select file and new task. Just type in explorer and it will restart.
If you get stuck at one of those steps let me know,
Youtube might show my steps in the reverse order^^
Yes.You're right. But "SIlver 2" wouldn't be so epic like the "Silver" from 1999. It would be a remake, nothing else...probably. I dont know. I am still playing silver(or try it at this moment). In my Opinion Silver is a better game then alot of new games.
If any one here has a XP-PAtch wich works WITHOUT any graphic-mistakes or bugs it would be nice, if he/her could send me the patch or a working link.
Silver will always be the best game I ever played.
Silver is my all time favorite game... haven´t played it in a while now... should try getting it to work in virtualbox and windows xp. Never got it to work properly on windows 7 :(
Guys. This game was my favored game during my childhood.. and many friends played it with me. I decided to wrote my feelings about this great game to the developers 5-6years ago and they answered.. something like "we loved to develop the game and already started working in Silver2 but Atari stopped investing money into the project" :(( So they rly TRIED to make Silver 2... rly sad atari fu*d it up :(

Cool to see so many other people who regard Silver as one of the best games in history. For me it's easily in top 5 games ever. The music, the story and the control are all so great.
I bought this game years ago just after it was released. I played that game so many times, it was amazing. One of my favourite games ever. I can't believe so many people don't know about it. I stumbled across this video seconds ago and I'm just amazed that there are so many people who have watched it. I'd love to see a port of Silver on some sort of handheld!
yeah, I fear the tracks you can fin in teh game files once the game has been installed and so forth, are difficult to run for some reason. I tried that but it didnt work.
I too hope to find these tracks. I know the music cd exists.. but WERE?? `xD
Yeah, I remember playing this with my dad (and using trainers to boost our health to a billion) and later with my best friend when we were like 7. And when the XP patch came I replayed it a while ago. Great game. Really innovative controls, smooth animations, great sound and fantastic soundtrack. The setting in the game is also really beautiful, even if it's not so original perhaps.
this is another game like others that are so subratted ...i love this game i finish it in pc and SegaDreamcast... Silver 2 ...............1:23......in this moment is so neural...
Spiral House said on Facebook that they're willing to make another Silver game, but Atari has the IP rights of Silver, so Atari is the one to ask for a new game. We'll have to bombard Atari with e-mails first.
the game aint fuck up prof i was in chins and attck and then go back when i didnt finish to kill every one (go back to buy arrows) and then when i return i killed all the archers and then coulded go throw the gate and that fucked up the game and now im stoped playing the game cant fix himself cant he eh? cuz i saved after the fuck up
@TheSharpmarksman You know if you use the time orb on yourself then save before its effects wear off, then when you load the same game you get permanent speed up on you
@DamienNight666 but i didnt got the orb yet so i got fukced up hhhhh,,,,, hell so new game? no way i spended too much time all the gold and armor and food potins hell this game is good mybe just mybe nhhh new start and what if fuck up again? damn thx any way
@TheSharpmarksman I wouldn't worry to much about buying potions and food. You find plenty on your journeys. I always find more than i can carry. Also there's a little trick you can use with the Ice Wand, Fire Sword and Lightning Staff. You mustn't have a shield equipped though. If you dodge back immediately after firing a shot then you effectively have infinite ammo because you sorta cancel out the recoil action that you do after you shoot. Hope that makes sence lol.
@DamienNight666 dang true but u know new games are about to come out and school as well its hard to have time for everything mybe on the holidays i can do another new game but for now i advertise too all my friends and peple in youtube about fantstic old rpg advnture game called silver :)
@TheSharpmarksman Good on you. Someone should start a campaign to get Infogrames and Spiralhouse to make a squel to Silver. It is such an epic and underrated game! Much better than the shit that's doing well these days like Final Fantasy or Tekan.
@TheSharpmarksman Oh I could finish Silver in less than a day if I wanted but it's nice to take your time with it to enjoy the music and the scenarios.
@DamienNight666 thats the reason why silver rock friend becuse its damn long very long the game isnt short like any game today well some games are good and long like assasins creeds the game rock and nice and if u have an xbox 360 or ps3 i reccomnd fable 3 game mac' is very beliveable and fable 3 has it for pc too :) and im sure if all the fans of silver were gonna meet thay might be able to make silver 2 that take a lot of brains to make silver and actors too
@TheSharpmarksman years ago i thought it ws holding down the left and right mouse buttons aswell as ctrl but yeh you're right, just the left mouse and ctrl.
the most fun and long and good story game 1 problom is the save u can save only once u see the cronicler and if u wanna do moar its hard to find saves and i have a quiestion has anyone finished the game? and was it original cd or from a download?
A tip if you wanna install this game and play it again and don't know how, is to download a Virtual PC of windows 95 or 98, or patch it or some anoying thing i did, just google for help ; )
Dark Messiah and Silver host the best combat systems so far I think, though Silver is by far the best game of the two. Much more soul.
Yes, I agree that Silver offers several of the best soundtracks so far. Icewind Dales Kuldahar theme is a worthy adversary though. Very worthy. Might even...ehm, win? ´:)
I really would've liked to see a Silver 2 come out. I love this game so much, I loved it as a kid and still do! The themes are absolutely enchanting, I could just sit there listening to the music and imagine the world it's describing perfectly. :)
@jesusarnold i think that`s the incubus, the big demon you fight in the Gno library before david`s grandfather is killed, i got it on the game guide xD
yeah bought it from ebay once for 3 euros :D so cheap but the game I got was so awesome :) I finished it many times too bad it wont play only bugged because nowadays the PCs are too modern i think :D it has graphical glitches
I loved Silver as a kid, I still do too! I haven't been able to reinstall it on my computer again, but it's absolutely fantastic! The music was always something I enjoyed from the game, very original, fitting, and absolutely gorgeous :).
Hey, Wethrinaer, where you found it? If someone knows too, where to download the ost... i would be gladly. I have the original game, and i simply love it. I'm taking my place in gaming industry, at sound FX/SX and game design. I was inspired by this game, and these musics.... i need them really bad! SOMEONE HELP!
OK, time to get the DreamCast back out. I don't know why the game got bad reviews, it was really great for it's time (and still is, just listen to the music)
My CD's of this game got broken, and i can't seem to find this game online :( i used to play it when i was little, but i didn't understand much of it. I'd love to play it again :(.
if someone would remake silver with today's graphics, they'd be billionnaires.

/files/1297515027/Silver.rar
I used this silver.exe which is the geforce fix some of you should be familiar with,
then I used the silverpatcher which is also in this winrar and used it on the new silver.exe. I used 758 pixel for the spare buffer, not the 640!
