For those of you who don't know the Story, Turok is a Native Time-Travelling warrior charged with protecting the Lost Land, which is unaffected by time.
The Campaigner is an evil warlord who wants to break the barrier between the Lost Land and Earth, so he can invade and begin his conquest of the universe.
I had this game for ages on the Nintendo 64, played it forever, over and over again. One of the greatest games ever.

Also, to answer a few questions i've seen here;

-You can configure your controls before you launch the game. Before you click 'Start Turok', the option is up top.
-The warning messages you get at the beginning are junk, just ignore them.
-There are 6 keys on the first level, 3 of them are tricky to get. Keep looking around until you find them all!
-You save by reaching these 'altars' that are placed in the levels. It can be a pain in the ass to find them but thankfully you can use them as many times as you like.

This game is great, but there's so much missing without the awesome music! Is there anywhere I can find it? If not, what format do the files have to be in if I want to put in the music myself?

Yup, and it is one of my favorite games, by the way.
I discovered this game years ago.

what I really wanted to ask is
A: are there any tricks to getting more ammo or is there essentially a set amount per playthrough?

B: do headshots/bodyshots/limbshots actually affect anything? the pistol damage seems inconsistant at times.

but i was also wondering

why doesn't this game get the first-person tag? abandonware action is pretty narrow description when there are tags like first person, shooter, platformer(for the jumping puzzles DX) and heck fantasy applies too.

How do I get it to work? When I launch the executable, it says something like it needs the CD and allows me to retry or quit.

Thanks though for the upload, I appreciate it and I'm sure I'll get it working with some help.

As for the third error, I never encountered it, but maybe it's due to current invalid vidcard settings. Below are my settings as found in config.ned, Turok's configuration text file located in the DATA folder. If you like, replace the contents of your config.ned with what's quoted below and try again.

Another thing you should do is remove Video_3DFx.dll from the game folder. Then the game will ask you what graphics card you use. Choosing an old Nvidia card is good if you use any Nvidia card. Turok will work on my GTX 460 when I choose Nvidia Riva 128. It is because of good backwards compatibility. It probably is the same for ATI cards too!

Thanks for the advice, but it didn´t help, so I have to say this I love the game, but sadly the game can´t be run on my pc but thanks for the help [/quote]

Has anyone gotten the background music to play with the Abandonia version of Turok?

I found the tracks in MP3 format and they really rock!
Would be great to have them playing in game.

I tried downloading & installing the CD image from the cellar but it appears to be the Rendition only version and won't run on my PC. ( of course, I no longer have my Rendition vid card installed )

The 2 versions seem to have all the same files with minor size differences ( except the rendition version doesn't have the extra vid driver DLLs )

So I think the music data is in the Abandonia version. Just a matter of getting it to play.

I have a Soundblaster X_FI Xtreme audio card.

Update:
After listening to the music tracks I am pretty sure they are MIDI so they would not be real big. Perhaps the game is not finding the MIDI device? Any ideas?

I posted a reply to this thread a few hours ago.
It showed up when I clicked SUBMIT but now it's not there.
So, just testing to see what's up.

Ahh, now it shows up. Strange. Seems like it needed another post to "push" it thru.
