As the title says iam missing textures for the first level (the stores shelves are gargoyles pictures) and I can't see the fire pod enemies, and they shoot white textures instead of fire. Anyone ever seen this or have a fix, the rest of the game and cryptic passage work fine.

Remove, re-download, re-install.
Yea I'll try this at home later (phone, away from PC) it will probably work.
EDIT-Worked, thanks, reinstalled with save files and textures are fixed.

Except the skybox for cryptic passage is now gone, any help?

Perhaps you by mistake tried to load a saved game of Cryptic from within the original Blood game?
If yes, then that explains the absence of the skybox.

Nah, I boot up cyrptic passage from the shortcut and get this.

Huh, that's weird. I do not know what could cause this then.

Indeed. :)
Did you try re-installing Cryptic passage?

Are you using One Unit Whole Blood from GOG or your own CD version?

ZFR:
Pretty sure he means the GOG version. Why would he even bother asking here if he used the CD version?
There's lots of other places to ask about the CD version.
The CP tiles probably didn't get renamed correctly before the game launched, or after it closed out last time.

If you installed under Program Files, cryptic.exe might not have inherited the rights to rename files. Make sure you have launched your cryptic shortcut as administrator.

cryptic.exe renames CPART07.AR_ as TILES007.ART and CPART15.AR_ as TILES015.ART before it launches the game. Check your game folder for some miss-named ART files. They may be named .AR_

I have both TILES015.ART and CPART15.AR_ same with the other file I have both versions, I assume from uninstalling and reinstalling. Is it a problem to have both? I also had to run it as admin, wouldn't launch for me without it.

I ask here a lot about games of which I have the original CDs. These are the only active game forums for some (not sure how active other Blood sites are though).

Try renaming them manually.

Make back up copies of TILES007.ART and TILES015.ART
Rename CPART07.AR_ as TILES007.ART and CPART15.AR_ as TILES015.ART

Start Cryptic Passage
(you'll probably have to rename them back when you start original Blood).

Alternatively just reinstall outside Program Files.

This worked, but I made copies of CPART as well, ran blood and cryptic and they both have working sky boxes, thanks man.
