Introduction


Riven, like Myst, is a very open game. The puzzles to be solved are scattered around the world and are often integrated very naturally into the environment. Often, there is a lot of area that you can explore with access to lots of devices that seem like puzzles. Usually, you cannot solve, or even decipher the meaning, of a device when you first see it and many devices are places to provide atmosphere to the game and are not part of any puzzle at all.

Part of the enjoyment of games like Riven is to walk around and take in the local scenery. Enjoy the fruits of someone else’s imagination. Try to figure out what is important and relavant to your situation. Overuse of walktrhoughs like this will ruin this sense of discovery; lost in the rush to get through the game as quickly as possible.

But enough about that. Here is a brief overview of how this solution is organized. The maps section gives a line-drawing map of all of the important locations in the game and all of the walkways that link these locations. The solution section actually talks about the different locations, what you need to accomplish in each location (and sometimes why you need to accomplish it), and gives you the order that you need to do stuff in. Because of the way the ‘damaging’ information in the maps is hidden in hyperlinks, the map section is generally spoiler-free and can be used like a trail guide is used in a National Park. The solution section is not so safe.

Install can be a little tricky, becuase the game was designed for win 95, 98, but will work on win 2000, xp, and vista. If you have any problems installing on the a newer OS, then there are several different forums that will tell you exactly how to install.
Search for 'riven install problem' and you will find out how and theres several ways to get it installed.



Note: I dont remember exactly how i got it to work (file to copy and settings), but once i knew, it was easy. On an xp, you install and when it gets to the quicktime, which it will want to install an older version, choose 'cancel' and exit setup. Since installer has already installed some files in your hd directory, now you will copy 'xxxx' file from cd over to directory on hd and change two settings in the .ini file. One setting is checking quicktime and the other has to do with sound and then you run install again and it bypasses the quicktime part and sound will work now too and will now continue to install.
DO NOT uninstall your newer version of quicktime or choose 'install quicktime' from installer.
Thats pretty straight forward of how i got it to run on win xp. I didnt have to run in 95 compatible mode either, which most say to.

I even found where someone got it to work an vista 64. I wouldnt think that would work, but who knows.
Please seed for others, as the seeders did for you!
