The following patch makes the game look for the Hard Disk, which is already present, instead of the CD. The folder which contains data the program needs is invisible. So first you should copy the whole CD to your Hard Disk. This will create a 34 MB large folder on your Hard Disk called Dark Forces Special Edition. Now make the folder called DF SE Data visible using a program like ResEdit (Choose Get File/Folder Info... From the File menu, and uncheck the invisible box). Now make a new folder where you want to keep the Dark Forces program. Copy the program itself, the Read me, the Controller settings and the Data folder to this new folder. Now delete the old folder. This is important. Do NOT move this folder. It contains more invisible files (the Desktop files in case you like to know). These files could confuse the Finder, and cause potential loss of data if you keep them, so although the folder might seem empty, be sure to delete it. Finally open the program file using ResEdit or Resorcerer, and change the following data: STR# 129, string number 1: change "Dark Forces Special Edition:DF SE Data:;Dark Forces Special Edition:DF SE Data:Cutscenes:" to the location of the new folders (for example "HD:Dark Forces:DF SE Data:;HD:Dark Forces:DF SE Data:Cutscenes:" if it's located on the Hard Disk called HD inside a folder called Dark Forces. of your Hard Disk. Note that the length of the second path (after the ";" shouldn't exceed 52 bytes in length or the game will give an error. STR# 129, string number 2: change "Dark Forces Special Edition:DF SE Data:Dark Forces Instruments 1" to the new location of this file (for example "HD:Dark Forces:DF SE Data:Dark Forces Instruments 1" if it's located on the Hard Disk called HD inside the DF SE Data folder, which is inside a folder called Dark Forces. STR# 129, string number 3: change "Dark Forces Special Edition:DF SE Data:Dark Forces Instruments 2" to the new location of this file (for example "HD:Dark Forces:DF SE Data:Dark Forces Instruments 2" if it's located on the Hard Disk called HD inside the DF SE Data folder, which is inside a folder called Dark Forces. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | You are here: Home : Macintosh : Dark Forces Special Edition |  | | dotCheats.com ©2004 Two Mad Mice - Email us with your feedback | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 44 platforms | | | 9,718 games | | | 43,845 cheats | | | Last update 31 Oct | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
