Issues unresolved[edit]

Game appears mostly black[edit]

An issue when running the game on a modern OS is that scenes in the game show up in black except in areas where some sprite suddenly shows up or moves over the black area, such as a character, subtitles, the cursor, or the Chronopedia. Using Windows Compatibility Mode settings does not fix the problem.

Players will have to get around this by opening the Chronopedia after every scene change, then clicking and dragging the Time Cuffs around the border where the Chronopedia couldn't reach (since the sprite area of the Time Cuffs is bigger than the cursor). Even then, the Time Cuffs are unavailable in the final case. WTFast Activation key serial number. Since it will happen each time the scene changes, this workaround can quickly get very tedious.

Installing on a 64-bit OS[edit]

Recommended only if you do not have access to a virtual machine with an older OS (see Issues unresolved).

When attempting to install the game on a modern 64-bit OS, the SETUP.EXE Autorun from the CD's base folder does not work, as it is a 16-bit program.

Install on 64-bit OS[citation needed]
  1. Insert the (first) disc into your optical disc drive.
  2. Open the CD as a folder.
  3. Open the Install folder and run SETUP32.EXE. When the 32-bit Autorun menu pops up, select 'Install/Uninstall'.
    1. If the 32-bit Autorun menu does not work for whatever reason, then try using 7-Zip.
    2. Open the 7-Zip File Manager and navigate to the game CD's Install folder through 7-Zip.
    3. Run _SETUP.EXE (note the underscore) through 7-Zip (see Notes below).
  4. Install the game as normal.
    1. At some point, you will be prompted to install QuickTime for Windows 2.1.2, which is required to run the game (modern versions of QuickTime won't work). When it asks you to check for existing versions of QuickTime, click 'Skip' and continue installing as normal (you'll want to skip version checking as the QuickTime installer can crash while going though your files, which will cause the game's installer to abort installation).
  5. You can now run the game though either the SETUP32.EXE Autorun menu or by going to the game's installation folder and running TIME32.EXE.

Notes

This fix method was done using the 1999 (Great Chase Through Time) release of the game. There may be differences with the original 1997 (Where in Time) release.
_SETUP32.EXE does not work when opened normally through Windows Explorer, as the installer will bring up a severe error that says, 'This product does not support Windows NT.' This is oddly bypassed when it's opened from 7-Zip or using the normal Autorun menu.

Other information[edit]

Hearing-impaired assistance[edit]

Case 16 has a music sheet-reordering puzzle that requires players to listen to parts of the openings to Ludwig van Beethoven's Fifth and Sixth symphonies, which can be difficult for players with hearing problems like that of the composer himself.
Enabling 'Hearing-impaired assistance' in the game options will change the descriptions of the different-colored sheets from their colors (written as '[Color] Score', e.g. 'Blue Score') to their correct ordered positions (written as '[Ordinal Numeral] Sheet', e.g. 'First Sheet'), allowing deaf or hard-of-hearing players to complete the case.
