Got it this morning, installed fine, went to play and

"No CD in drive: Error 111" came up.
Frustrating.
Read the website and a LOT of people are experiencing this problem.

There's a patch you can download to fix this, so it's not the game that's bugged.
Apparently it's a copy-protection programme that went a little wrong.

So download the patch from http://www.poptop. com (remove space) and enjoy.

haven't tried this yet as I'm out, but will check later and let you know for sure if this fixes it.

Peace

Wookie you child..tsk tsk..I expected more from you (and so on)

YH, he grows with age, about 30-60% fat, carrying rocks and just letting him do his thing.
When he goes into the pen, you'll see how much he's grown by the size he shrinks too, always the start size when they go back to the pen.

The Skirmish allows you to spend time without completing any of the islands.

Momo the Chimp is totally evil and about twice his original size aged 18.

Nibbles the tiger is black hearted, just a wee bit taller aged 1.

In my defence, I would just like to point out that I have never made any claim to be a mature, responsible adult.

I'm still trying to get Monkey to grow, i've got him running around with rocks like you suggested, and he seems to be a bit more muscley than when i first got him, but he doesnt seem to be growing any taller.

Does he just get taller with age, or does it relate to the amount of belief you have?

Yeah, but if you hit land 5, the curse (makes your creature gradually smaller and smaller) stays, even after you lift the curse.

The advice is to not get to Land 5 until the patch is released.

Goatboy, what problem do you have with B&W?

I've had one problem. My creature froze once and refused to move, didnt seem to recognise any of my commands to him. The rest of the game was continuing though. I quit the game and started again and it was fine, and it hasn't happened since.

Please go away.

This is a thread concerning a serious problem that people will have if they buy this game.
It is here to stop others returning a game that isn't faulty, merely overly-protected.

Shut up, leave us all alone and go learn something.

You are not funny, you are annoying.
You have not, nor ever will not win anything except a ride on the sunshine bus.

Stop posting, go study for your exams - give yourself a chance
