I've just found my original disc, so can anyone post the best way to play this game on XP. i.e., what patches do I need and in what order do they need to be applied? Also, what's this new OpenGL renderer I've heard about?
 
Ok, this is bloody retarded! I installed Deus Ex from the disc just fine and it runs. So, I grab the 1112fm patch but when I try to install it I get this.



Any ideas why it says the game isn't installed when you can quite clearly see that it is from the screenshot? I've un-installed and re-installed about 5 times now and still the same stupid thing happens!
 
have a google for Deus Ex single-player 1.014 patch. I think (not 100% certain though), that 1112fm is a patch for the SDK.
 
Do you have the GOTY edition?

No, I got it on the day of release so it's the version that came in the huge cardboard box. :D

Are you sure you didn't download the upgrade patch (from v1109) instead of the full v1112 patch? If so, yeah, just try the standalone singleplayer patch.

Also: Oh my god! JC! A bomb!
 
No go on both patches I'm afraid, both the 1112fm and 1014 refuse to work. Oh well, guess I'll have to shelve it for a while longer. :mad:
