"Black and White Patch"

The official patch is now out, along with the Winamp Creature Dancing plug-in thing.

After 4 months maybe we can now play the game as intended

OK I have a question, I want ot get my creature to dance but I can never see anyone dancing from dawn till dusk, no matter how many rock and stones I put in the village.

How does he dance

Oh and does the patch make the game run or load up any faster?

THanks Ben

Ok, that official patch fixes a load of problems.

And the MP3 feature has made me realise it's the little touches that make me like Black and White so much.

You can play MP3 via Winamp and your creature dances to them, will learn which songs it likes and which it doesnt.

My ape loves Clutch, "Your creature thinks this music rocks" and will spend 5 mins dancing madly, and the more often you play a particular song, the better in time with it the creature dances.

Stuck in my mum's Michael Bolton CD and my ape burst into tears, "Your creature doesn't like this music, it reminds him of sad things"

So, after 2 hrs of experimenting and rewarding, my ape has told me the following:

"Your creature thinks this music rocks" to

Clutch
Nailbomb
Tool
Gorillaz
Dr John

"Your creature doesnt like this music" to

Michael Bolton
Maria Carey
Travis (?)
Oxide Neutrino
Spice Girls

he started to dance to "Wannabe" but got such a beatdown he soon stopped.

I might just get that but if I dont like it I will write a quick GAD attempt review and swap it at CEX but I am sure I will enjoy it!!

Thats the same with me. I took the game back and swapped it for Unreal tournament and half life. It was good but to easy and tooo much of the same.

where from!!!

I know a place that has one or two for BLACK & WHITE but I am not sure if it is the patch that sorts out the bugs!!

Called: Black & White V1.100 - 8.9 mb!

Was I the only one who wasn't to impressed with b&W's single player by the end of the second or third stage it got a bit repetitive. But it was revolutionary and great fun at first.
