any help

Ah, it's the weekend, bro.

I'm one of Iain's merry lads will have an answer for you monday morning

Which, in the UK, is only a few hours from now...

thanks i don't know what i am doing wrong

For Windows Vista users who are having problems running Spartan, please download this dll. It is part of DirectX, which does not get included with Windows Vista. Unzip and place the dll in the game folder, or if this does not work, place it in the windows\sysytem32 folder.


need help with this what game folder is it talking about i tryed to open it i see a code where do i put it

The game folder is where you installed the game to. By default it would be something like Program Files\Slitherine\Spartan, though may vary depending on which version of the game you have. To check the exact dir, right click on the desktop shortcut and ask for properties and it will show you where the exe is. Put the dll in the same dir as the Spartan exe.

it show to be in my e drive it is still not working all of other games work just fine it is just this game thanks for the help but it is still not working when i download it i don't know where it needs to go i will play a diff. game

f you right click on the spartan shortcut and look at properties where does it say the exe is?

wow don't get mad lol

"C:\Program Files\Slitherine\Spartan\Spartan.exe"

now what??


now it says DVD RW Drive (E:) SPARTAN

Who's mad?!

Copy the dll to the same dir as the exe and it should be fine.

C:\Program Files\Slitherine\Spartan\

i will try it when i get home just copy it to the back

now it wont open right the dll it wants to open as spartan what do i need to open this with

All you need to do is unzip the dll to the Spartan directory.

"C:\Program Files\Slitherine\Spartan\SPARTAN.EXE." do i just type .dll at the end exe or when i unzip it it says error something not right

do u have aim so i can talk to get this fixed my aim is xhold0utx

You dont type anything. You must download hte Spartan Vista patch from http://www.slitherine.com/downloads/spartan

Then put the dll from the patch in the Spartan dir.

"C:\Program Files\Slitherine\Spartan\SPARTAN.EXE" how do i put the dll in here i can open it but everything i try does not work i tried to copy it and do it that way but it does not work when i unzip it all i see is alot of codes and shit

1) Download the zip
2) Unzip the dll file to a temporary directory
3) Copy the dll file to C:\Program Files\Slitherine\Spartan

Thats all you need to do

I'm not sure what else to say!

it is trying to open with WinRAR archiver

do i need to make a folder then put it in there or how do u open a temp. dir

You can make temp directory - it is just a temporary directory you create by right clicking and saying "New folder". Alternatively open the zip and just drag the file to C:\Program Files\Slitherine\Spartan\

i have to go back to work but i will try this when i get back

when i try to open the zip file it says

C:\user\xhold0utx\desktop\newfolder\d3drm.dll
The archive is either in a unknown format or damaged
