:tnx: Wendy!
And I promise I'll have the rest of the maps done ASAP (just working on the Victorian London map - it's a real nightmare, because it features tunnels that take you further away then just one sqare).

* after short nap *

pressing enter thousands times doesnt hav any impact on keypad.i tell u,sebatianos,this game isnt cracked and the crack contained in game folder doesnt crack it :P

another nap needed,i dont remember crack that wasnt working after the second one

Same here. Though I only pressed it 500 times..

That's strange...
I deleted the one I had on my computer and downloaded the version on the site (the one you can get). I extracted it and it works just fine!
Download the file.
Extract the file (here miy be the catch - I have it in the C:\waxworks folder).
Run the WAX.BAT - a blue screen shoul appeare, followed by the Accolade screen and the Horror Soft screen - then the credits will roll.
When the manservent asks you for the ticket number press enter (without giving in any number) and you're ready to play!

If you use WinXP the game can freeze, so use either DOS, DOSBox or VDMSound.

I don't know what you're doing wrong, so if you want anybody to be able to help you, you'll have to provide more info.

maybe game must be extracted to c:\waxworks?maybe crack needs the specific path to run properly?i'll redownload it,unzip to c:\waxworks and see

sory for spaming forum,but after many years ive finally found the version of waxworks which wants to run at all.
