Okay - I cannot get either game to create a character. In Savage Empire, the game tells me I need to run the install program first. In Martian Dreams, I can't even access the Character Creation menu. Hitting return does nothing.

I have a AMD 64 X2 Dual Core processor and an Nivida 9500 video card and run the current version of Windows Vista, if that information is needed. I know of at least one person on twitter that is having this same issue. Any ideas?

I'm just waiting to see what they have to say at 7, then hitting the mattress. Been up all night heh

Hopefully by the time I awake, it'll all be fixed.

I wanted to play Martian Dreams so bad when I was younger. Alas, I didn't have a computer at the time. Now I get to play it! For free even... Funny that the pixelated graphics are common in many new games now, heh.

I know right. As for me I always wanted both Worlds of Ultima games but non of the shops here carried them at all. So I missed out.

We fixed the issue. Please re-download both games.

I always like the steampunk vibe that Martian Dreams had. You know, before steampunk was the 'in' thing....

Just downloaded and installed Savage Empire on Windows 7 x64. When the game starts, all I get is a DOS cursor. Nothing happens whatsoever.

You need to run it as an administrator.
