Hello, I have a bug, oh error, that when I move to the third land it does not allow me to advance in the mission of (creature roles) that the creature must be left anchored to the cornfield

Ethan 2024-09-20 1 point

If you keep experiencing the CRC error during installation, try downloading the Disc Image labelled "MDF Format, no CRC Error", and then following Ozir's installation guide in the comments.

Worked perfectly for me now in 2024 on an AM4 chipset with an RTX 30xx GPU in Windows 11. No bugs, no crashes, no performance issues.

Can anyone give a guide on how to do this on steam deck? The one youtube video floating around is a year old and not helpful for a total idiot like myself to figure out...

Zengobag 2024-07-06 0 point

OZIR is correct but rather than run arun.exe, right click setup.exe and run as admin.
NO problems installing this and BotG add-on. DON'T copy any cracks over as the fan patches update the game properly.

Installed BNW/Creature Isle and BNW2/BotG with NO problems. Just install patches 1.1, 1.2 and then fan patch. Install the add-on disc and then run the fan patch for the add-on.

Sound issues with Creature Isle - No music. Copy the Audio folder from disc to Audio folder where you installed main game.

Install folder is best kept at the default for all installs. NO problems with missing install directory then. Everything installed first time for me using these guidelines.

Directories for me are -
C:\Program Files (x86)\Lionhead Studios Ltd\Black & White
C:\Program Files (x86)\Lionhead Studios\Black & White 2

Hope this helps folks having problems.

OH - Found out too that running the game(s) in a window slows it down. Run in desktop resolution and fullscreen. Tried in a window at 1280*720 and was slow/stuttering. Tried at 1920*1280 fullscreen and they ran faster/smoother. GFX setting set to high.

I still don't see the hidden scenario in 2nd tutorial island.
There should be a man and son pair making their way up the mountain to watch fireflies.

Also. Creature eyes and evil imp wings are bugged.
The comments in here help to mitigate the majority of issues, but now the game flashes to black occasionally and bugs out till i quit and restart.

Might just be easier to boot up in my old intel 2600 and a DX9 gpu....

Woohoo just got the game running on my MacBook Air M1 8 GB RAM with Portingkit app. I created a costume bottle using WS11WineCX20.0.4 and besides that just followed the guide:

Install the game (point to the installer creating the bottle) - Finish the bottle - Don't run the game
Install the patches via the advanced menu - 1.1 then 1.2 and finally 1.42

Now you can run the game.

Installed the European ISO. DEViANCE one did not work - corrupted file during installation. Downloaded and installed the 3 patches of the game, the 1.1, 1.2 and fan patch. Downloaded the patches from PCGamingWiki.

It did not work without the patches.

Eminor 2022-12-08 0 point

I've tested the Deviance ISO and the 4 Disks Bundle, and I can confirm that those DO NOT WORK correctly.

I got a CRC error (speech.lug) and a skipped land5 on install, respectively.

Both the errors above are correlated with the "children not growing past 1 year old ingame" and other bugs.

I ended up finding a "Black & White 2 Complete Collection MULTi7" Build: 1448 version on the internet, which has the "children not growing" and other issues fixed.

I did NOT test the European ISO from MyAbandonware, someone could update on this maybe.

hungrybear 2022-11-17 0 point

If you are still having issues with the game randomly crashing, download the 4gb patch from NTcore.com. run the .exe and patch the white.exe found in the game install folder

RedHeavyPootis 2022-11-02 -3 points

Whenever I try to download the patches onto the game, I get a message saying that the install is corrupted, when the only thing I noticed wrong was a black square around torches and a missing audio file. Is there anything I need to do?

Sun Harambe 2022-10-18 -1 point

Game works fine except for one major thing. In land 6 it took many hours before my breeders started to breed. In land 7 they wont breed at all. So my entire population are around 80-90 year olds. Quit because of it hoping someone might know the solution.

To clarify, I think I do everything correctly. Putting a bunch of people on breeding, ive built schools, I have bunches of those breeding statues. Enough homes everyone is happy, a ton of every resources. Yet zero Children....

UPDATE:
Figured it out.
Thx page 6 of forum post

Lock FPS to 60 to fix timing problems on modern cards and limit polling speed(and DPI) on mice in software.
125 hz.

AMD users can use Adrenaline to "frame target control"

Lighting and textures still break from time to time but a quick alt tab fixes it.

Still need to figure out wide-screen support but I remember fixing that previously with a fix...(don't quote me)

Tricrow 2022-09-18 -1 point

I feel like the timings on animations are off. The Red devils wings fap too quickly than i remember and dialogues cut or run into each other. The creature facial animations are also a lot more derpy and on the second tutorial island, there is supposed to be a father and son who make their way up the big mountain to admire fireflies but again due to the timing issues the AI never correctly sends out the order.

So does this work better on a x86 system (32bit) or should i shell out some dough for a GTX 960 to run a XP gaming PC?

You can improve the mouse problem by lowering the polling rate of your mouse, if it supports it. The children not growing up thing is an anti-piracy thing, install the 1.42 patch and it will go away.

This one does not work from this site. You'll have problems. What I did is I downloaded from a certain bay where the pirates go. The file is the 4 CD version. It comes with patches 1.1 and 1.2 in a folder. Download and install the 1.42 fan patch that removes the DRM or else it won't run on Windows 10. Do not install the nocd fix. Keep the CD mounted when playing. It works and so far no issues. No land 5 issue. No children not growing up, etc.

I ended up ignoring it and now its saying I need admin privileges to run it... but I am the admin account, in fact this is the only account on my computer. I even checked the account settings to verify that I'm the admin. Pretty sure im going to have to uninstall and reinstall it but before I do that anyone got any ideas on what went wrong?

And I do have all the patches downloaded.

DA HELPER 2021-08-22 2 points

My previous comment had some typos and more I could say so here is the correction (with original text below):

This download will work, but for me it took not just the 1.1 and 1.2 patches available on this site but also and additional 1.42 patch I found online (it is fan created so tread lightly; I take no responsibility blah blah blah). Install all THREE patches in order for optimal performance on windows 10.

One additional note. Newer mouses (mice whatever) have polling times that are far too high for the game to handle and it will cause almost unplayable jitter/lag in the movement of the God Hand. In order to fix this get an older mouse that doesn't poll so quickly [keep in mind we are not talking about dpi here; different metric]
OR
(if you are lucky) you have a logitech newer model mouse that supports logitech g hub. If this is the case, make a new profile and set (NOT DPI) but what logitech calls "Support Rate" to the lowest setting 125. 125 is the 'polling' time B&W2 works with, and g hub doesnt go lower. I'm sure other mouses have similar settings in some third party programs that will allow for this polling fix.

I have not played to or past map 5 so I will update with any problems from there. I just wanted to get it running properly.

ORIGINAL: "This download will work, but for me it took not jus the 1.1 and 1.2 patches available here but also and additional 1.42 patch I easily found online. Install all THREE patches in order for optimal performance on windown 10.

One additinal note. Newer mouses (mice whatever) have polling times that are far too high for the game to handle and it will cause almost umplayable jitter in the movement of the God Hand. In order to fix this get an older mouse that doesnt poll so quickly
OR
if you are lucky you have a logitech newer model that supports logitech g hub. If this is the case, make a new profile and set (NOT DPS) but what they call "Support Rate" to the lowest setting 125. 125 is optimal and g hub doesnt go lower. Completely removes the God Hand jitter and instability issue."

Arctic0ne 2021-03-22 2 points

While I recommend you play using the fan patch, as it does much more than fix the aging issue, the problem lies with the DEViANCE crack. IIRC there was some additional code in the v1.2 EXE that stopped the in-game clock (So not only does this mean the villagers do not age, but neither does your creature) if a workaround was added to the EXE to allow running without the original disk (No-CD/Pirating). Within a few days this was caught and fixed, but the original DEViANCE crack seems to still be the most pervasive version out there.

If you would like to play the original 1.2 version of the game with the aging fixed, use the new crack, which you can find here (Adblocker HIGHLY recommended):

KANEK 2020-03-24 1 point

Just updating people on the fix for my problem mentioned below. Turns out my antivirus was preventing the game modifying its own files, causing a crash on loading. Hope this helps other people play this awesome game!

KANEK 2020-03-24 2 points

Hi, I'm having an issue with the game. All instructions have been followed as detailed in the comments yet when I start the game up, it all works until I select 'New Game', once I've done that it will load for around 5 seconds and crash. All patches have been applied and I'm tearing my hair out as to why it won't work. Any help would be much appricated.

Crash 2020-03-19 3 points

i'm having issues on starting the game, like it doesn't read it, once I click on the gamne it tells me "would let this application to makes changes on your computer" and I click yes...after waiting minuts or even ours the game hasn't started

NOPAND 2020-03-15 0 point

its the same as the torrent that was out years ago you can either get a program for a virtual drive and mount the image or the easier way use win rar extract and then install using setup.exe once installed go to the deviance folder copy the white.exe then go to the location you installed it paste it and replace.
one question is the second patch the reason why every time i press esc it asks if i want to skip land or is it the first patch its really annoying

Anon 2020-03-07 0 point

Make sure you set the white.exe to run in compatibility mode. Win XP works for me

Chedda 2020-02-24 4 points

I believe I was able to follow the instructions given by EMMADEEB. But the game will not launch. It will briefly pull up a small screen but before I can see what it is or what the thumbnail, it disappears. Under my folder BW2 in my documents, I have:
AutoRun
DEViANCE
Support
.DS_Store
00000001.TMP
00000002.TMP
Autorun
White

Is this the correct structure? If not what do I need to do?

Just came here to say that this has the children aging issue, but there is a crack that fixes that called: 'Black & White 2 (FIXED AGING) Crack'. Just replaced the whte.exe and children are aging to beyond 1 year old :D

I did the first installation, when i come to do the in-game instalation, i enter serial, the download stop right after he start loading in the data. My compter said it has been corrumpted. i feel like these files are not good. the data 1 - 2 is not openable from my unzipping program. Files is missing.

Sammy 2020-01-26 0 point

Update: I installed the v1.3 fan patch and it fixed the aging bug for me.

Sammy 2020-01-25 2 points

I've followed the steps and have gotten the game working, but my children will not age. I know this is due to the version not being cracked, but I am curious if there is anyway to fix this with the files from this site?

Flying Kites 2020-01-22 3 points

Yo Akshay, language options are at installation.

Hey, anyone get an error during installation - with the screenshots of the game displaying - about some kinda file "speech.lug"? I just clicked ignore and the installation completed. I'm further going to attempt to patch it, 1.1 and 1.2, plus the fanpatch, and then I'll attempt to install BotG plus the fanpatch for that, THEN I'm gonna attempt to install Redux, the Lionshead unpacker, and 4gb patch. Wish me luck! :)))

Hi,

I've been having a lot of trouble downloading this game. I went through all of the steps but its asking me to insert a CD/DVD and try again. Isn't there a way around this?

Benji 2019-10-12 -1 point

Right, so downloaded and got it to run, but I can't make any disciples so it's unplayable. Any ideas on fixing this?

leech 2019-10-07 3 points

How do you fix children? Atm I'm just burning them for mana. Nothing else to do with em. I use Nurseries to round them up and mass-sacrifice them. I'm forced to be evil cuz I need ore (mineworkers) and cba to wait for worshipers to generate it normally. I'm now also on the Japanese island, so my worshipers need to charge my Wonder. I use Siren Wonder just to get more people. It's playable but damn this is difficult. Creature can only do so much vs catapults guarded by a squad of 50 archers.

chrisbox 2019-09-14 4 points

To the people having problems with children growing up, its an anti-piracy technique implemented by the developer. if you dont buy the game, its rendered unplayable by not having a growing adult population.

chareleskelly 2019-08-15 -1 point

down load takes forever and always stops and says it failed, anyone know why?????

MrToasteer 2019-08-08 -6 points

To all of you bakas who downloded this file; (including me) this is for a CD. Maybe try to understand why it doesn't work

nik 2019-07-29 2 points

wont start, installshield just disappears, dll files missing...

ejonesss 2019-07-28 3 points

to answer the question about the babies not growing up you can actually open the GameBalanceVillager.txt file and find the villager ages and change the greek ages to be born at 21

the first number 1 is the birth age.

i tested it on a legit copy of the game so i dont know if the folks of lionhead took that into consideration and blocked it.

@Havoc seems like issue with your graphic card drivers, without any more details the only thing I can suggest is reinstalling and/or updating your GPU drivers.

Havoc 2019-06-03 0 point

So I installed using Emma's instructions to the T, but I keep coming up with an error saying that my computer can't "create the 3D device." I don't know what this means, and I've tried using DOSBox but now I realize that's for OLDER older games. If anyone could help I'd be extremely grateful. Thanks.

seerofvisions 2019-05-15 0 point

Well, it works. You just have do a fresh install of deviance cracked B&W2, and download Matt's no cd patch from bwfiles and your good to go. Finished the game, no bugs except an error during installation of a missing file, just click IGNORE and keep installing. Works great. Im about to try and find an ISO for BOTG that works.

seerofvisions 2019-05-08 1 point

Anyone got a fix for children not growing up yet? I installed the deviance cracked game about a year ago and it worked fine. Tried running the same install recently and the kids aren't growing again. Reinstalled the deviance copy several times, used the cracked "white" exe file and still, no grownups. So if anyone has one that works or can help out, shoot me a message please at seerofvisions75@gmail.com TYTY

dude 2019-04-24 3 points

The reason the children arnt growing up is because Lionhead flooded warez sites with Anti-Piracy versions of B&W 2 on release. This was their way of saying fuck you to people who wanted to pirate their masterpiece.

Bobert 2019-04-17 1 point

Same issue with children not growing up. Unplayable. Look forward to a fix or different version

Sjamie1398 2019-04-16 1 point

So, I basically followed what EMMADEEB instructed to do, but when I tried to finally launch the game I got an error saying the following: Fatal Error Could not create the 3D device.
Specs: 64 bit system, 8 GB RAM, Intel core i7-4510U. It's an HP laptop with no real high specs so I don't really understand what's happening. I tried to run compatibility mode, but even that didn't help any at all. Could someone help me, please?

ADP 2019-04-12 3 points

I followed exactly what EMMADEEB said to do and it was all working perfectly but the kids wont grow up!!! :......(

Any fixes for that yet?

Thanks!

Hope2Help 2019-02-06 1 point

With Windows 10, I was able to get it to work by mounting the ISO in EMMADEEB's instructions instead of unpacking the ISO. Then go to the run setup step. If it gives an error about speech.lug, ignore it as it is not fatal. If you right click the ISO and don't see the mount option, http://www . fullduplextech.com/2017/03/20/missing-mount-option-in-right-click-menu-windows-10/

For users using 64 bit OS, recommended to format your system in 32-bit NTFS before installing your 64-bit OS, to keep compatibility (error reports of so and so is corrupted, etc.) with the many 'Abandonware' found here.

Whenever I attempt to install patch 1.1, it puts up an error message saying "Your installation of Black & White(R) 2 has been corrupted. Please re-install Black & White(R) 2 and then re-run this program." Is there any way around this?

lounio 2019-01-10 1 point

hello I would like to ask you something the game works very well except a small thing (good in real bug everywhere but good do not bother for the game) my celuis if and ba so sestout simply not playable at all I can not take the creature leash so I can not ask her to do something so unplayable, the enemies overthrow me and she does anything, in short I try everything: start a game, change the action, etc. So, I would like you to help me because I like a lot of games (childhood games) so it's very nice to have help please. :)

Berten 2018-08-30 -1 point

The crack.exe in this game isn't working correctly (the one in the Deviance folder). I'm not sure if I am allowed to post links here so just search gamecopyworld black and white 2. There is a CD and DVD version, the CD is deviance so it won't work. Use the DVD (NoGRP). Hope this helps!

Anyone else having issues running the older game in their Win10 client should download RetroArch, install and update all of the cores, and run the game from an emulator running an older version of Windows

"The file is too big, thus people with slower connections may have trouble completing the download. It would be nice if it was splitted in individual ISOs for each CD of the game." It does not work like that.

1. Thank you for uploading
2. All download links are valid and able to play smoothly on my window 7

5. Happy googling

diddy 2018-02-24 -1 point

(I wrote bc of the filesize)

edit: checking the file with 7zip instead of windows commander resulted in 'no error'

But still strange feeling if the iso could be 'enhanced' with trojans or the like :)

diddy 2018-02-24 3 points

The file size should be 2GB, but the download is about 3.5GB
(exact size: 3.761.036.067 bytes)
Trying to unzip it gives an error.
Have used firefox

Any solution?
