it should be work correctly!
the demo just gives me a "black screen" after the first loading...then i can do nothing but press alt+f4
i'm so afraid of the full-version still not works for me...thats so dull

if you cant figure it out.. do a full system restore...

or just backup all your files.... insert your windows XP\98\95\ME\2000 disk and boot from the CD rom and format the hard drive and re-install windows!!! and install all up to date drivers and you should be okay

looky how long did you wait ?
tried newest graphic card drivers ?

Directx90.c, is that stable ?

more than 9.0b
I have it and I did run Locomotion so it is probably Graphic Card problem

thanks for your helps!
i know i could solve this problem by reinstall my windows.
but u know it's not the best way~i'm sure i will do that if the full-version still can't work...

i just want to find a easy method to run the demo... does anyone get the same problem as mine?

and my ATI driver is 4.8,any ati user here?

Have you tried re-downloading the demo and installing it?

The black screen does show up for me for 2-3 seconds before the Atari movie shows. It could be that the movie isn't loading so your getting the black screen constantly.

I would install de directX delivered with the Demo. Then it will probably work. Never use a DirectX when it's not finished!

sure,i re-downloaded the demo and install again and again,but still not works

just as u said,may be the movie...i don't know just wrong or bad...

if it is the movie problem:
- install some codecs (codec-packs)
- if it is possible (if you can find it) find and delete movie file somewhere in Locomotion directory ... may help

I'm now at a friends place, where we got a problem installing Locomotion Demo.

I click on the executable file, a window pops up asking my email adress and if I want more info per e-mail and such, I click next...

The window dissapears and the installation program simply wont start

And what if you click skip and untick everything?

You need Direct X 9.0c...

If you got XP, load SP2 from live update.

after that window disappears, installing program startes to load, and starts several minutes later.

(having no other apps open generally helps. )

SP2 is not necessary (and I personally recommend not installing it).

DirectX 9.0C isn't needed. 9.0b is needed. 9.0c isn't officially available yet!..

@lakie: Download the demo from another place. Somebody has messed with the files. When you install the demo.. en you start it for the first time.. it will take a little time but just like in RCT there will be a little window saying: Locomotion is started for the first time, please wait..

something like that!

well.. Enjoy!

Well, if it's not offical, how come SP2 comes with it?

DirectX 9c has been out since Auguest.
linky

Service Pack 2 isn't available yet for particulair use. Well, not here yet. Also my Windows update don;t show any directx 9.0c

WinXP pro here..

Does that include Virus scanners and such?

In fact, the game works fine with DirectX 8.0 which I have. Since it's not using 3D graphics it would probably work with 6.0 even...

Move the file to another directory and try again, I know its rediculous, but it worked for me.
