RC2.  Game runs fine, but Advanced option
panels (Display, Sound) crash.  Can make changes manually in registry.

SP3 installed. DirectX 9.0 passes all compatibility test. Hangs program with Assert error "sithCamera.c(1288): pThing2 !=((void *)0)"

1) graphic flickering
2) a few minutes playing and some keys don't work, e.g. ESC.

P.S.: The latest patch from LucasArts IS installed...

Game works up to the beginning of the actual playable game, then the camera position messes up and it is only possible to quit from there... the gane does not appear to accept other normal in-game input either.

Windows Compatibility mode has no effect, other than increasing minor graphic glitches in the menus.

It may be possible to load a save game saved under an earlier OS in order to fix the camera angle.

16-bit installer on this one, so it won't install on Windows x64. Shame!

Theoretically, "Indy & the Infernal Machine" will cause problems under Windows XP, and Lucasarts' official stance is that they "offer no support for this game under Windows XP".

Realistically, all one needs to do is to run the MS Media Player first, and *then* run Indy. With MP open and kept in the background, the game will work flawlessly under XP.

Note: avoid the patch for this game. It actually gives more problems (such as occasional freezing of an end-level enemy) than cures.

...and to fix camera problems, open "Advanced Graphics Options" from the game's internal menu, enter the options and exit them.

If Indy freezes in place, type "fixme" in the game's console.

Tried to get this to run for ages.
Found the post from vess.
With Windows Media player in background the game works beautifully.

Would never have thought of that.

The game works fine up to the 9 level but then the 4th door won't open. And if you unstall it won't reinstall.

The only problem that occurs with me is that when the characters speak, no sound comes of it. Any fixes? :/

I'm using windows xp 64 bit professional and it doesn't work!
Is there someone that can give me help or tell me how to play it, please?
I would really like to play it again.
Thanks

Has anyone been able to fix the Assert Handler problem? The rest of the info is:
sithCamera.c(1288): pThing2 !=((void*)0)
Okay - button

I've not been able to find any solutions through google, ask, or msn search engines. The unlikely "Windows Media Player running in the back ground" is of course no help. Any suggestions would be worth while.

have tried running media player in the background for indiana jones & the infernal machine this does improve performance on my system, but I still have a problem on the Infernal machine level?? once i reach this level i can climb down into the pit but am unable to to continue any further as can not climb the ledge that i need to to continue!?? Any one got any ideas to help me please???? Tried LUCAS ARTS they where quite helpful but the people they referred me to to ( ACTIVISION/ RED OCTANE) were less than helpful, in their responses! from reading your posts on this site I would say you guy`s know more about the game than the people that are supposed to know all about this game

With the whole Assert Handler thing. I found I also got that in the Nub's tomb level. The problem is that there is supposed to be a cut scene first. So what I did to fix the problem was jump and somehow land only just touch the next platform. The cut scene should appear and allow you to keep going. You might have to do this a few times to jump perfectly on the edge. And with the whole infernal Machine level i have no idea how to fix it. The only way would be to download a save game that has it fixed.

As i thought knew one of you guys may come up with some sort of solution!

did try jumping into the ledge as suggested with no joy! (did get a bit boring doing that!)

would anyone know where i could find a save game where he has Just climbed the ledge in the pit on the infernal machine level? (PLEASE)

Would like to finish this game as did enjoy the game

I've played this game on two different vista's. One of them the fourth door on LEVEL 9 wouldn't open, and I uninstalled, and TRIED to re-install, and it didn't work. Now I can't install games more than 6 years old my computer. I then used my Brother's Computer, and it worked perfectly, no problems at all. So, I guess it just comes down to luck if it will work on Vista or not. I give it 4 our of 5 stars, because more often than not, everything will run as it was designed to.

Only "PARTY?" Working? The game works, kinda. The game works perfectly until halfway into Babylon! I've tried everything, Windows Media Player, Configuration Changes, etc... so, while my XP is screwed-up anyway, it should still work...right?
