Hello all,

    Well, I couldn't get Captive to work on PaCifiST, but that's sortof
ok... I got the PC version instead... but I'm stuck ! On the third base (#2,
since the first one is #0), as soon as you enter, you are in a small
corridor with a metal door, and no button anywhere that I can see. I've
tried beating the door down, but that didn't work either. I remember having
been stuck there too when I originally played it many years ago, but can't
remember how to open the door. Does anyone know ? I've looked on the net,
but there aren't any walkthrough for Captive (I guess it's a bit old, so no
one cares anymore)

Thanks,

Patrick

     Just so I follow the below clearly? You are using a PC to play a PC
game because the ST emulator doesn't run the pirate software? So you come
here and ask us for help?

     Clear enough. Go to Mille Babics page for ST internet support.
He is a Captive fan.

Pirate software? I don't know about you, but I don't see Captive on the
shelves anymore, and haven't for quite some time. If it hadn't fallen into
public domain, I doubt all the Atari sites out there (Including the little
green desktop) would be happily advertising that they have the medway boys
archive, which includes Captive. Do you really think any company that used
to make game for the ST care whether people copy them now ? They're not
selling them, and probably have no intention to ever do so again. And like I
said, I used to play it some odd 8 years ago, and I didn't have a pirate
version. The disk is still at my folk's place too... But that won't help me
since they are thousands of miles away, and it likely still won't run on
PaCifiST.

And the reason I asked on this group is because I've only ever seen Captive
for the ST, and didn't even know there was a PC version... And none of my
friends knew either... So I figured my odds of finding someone who would
know the answer would be a lot better in the Atari community.

Try to be constructive next time.

Patrick.

Oh, BOO-HOO, you poor little girlie man. Did you fall down and land in your
own little girlie man baby pooh!  You are an idiot. You get your pirate
answers off your pirate sites. Not here. You are a complete fool. And to
come back here crying because, I didn't treat you right, and have all these
lame excuses. Patrick you are a DUMB ASS! What do you expect. The Pompey
Pirates said it right when they said, DON'T BUG US, DON'T BUG US, because
they would have to deal with whining little losers like yourself. "Oh, I
want to steal some software and get free games, help me, help me, oh, and I
am stuck too, help me help me". When suffice to say you only needed to ask
for help in playing the game, you had to announce to everyone here that
you have stolen pirate copy, that will work on your PC. But this to is
irrelavent because you are actually using a stolen PC copy on your PC.

Fools like you get places like LGD shut down. LGD looks pretty safe but
, IT IS YOU, the BIG DUMBASS IDIOT, that brazenly announces where
to go get this stuff. Not ME. And while their house looks good today many
of these websites offering commercial games have to move around alot.
And it is not public domain YOU FOOL. Who do you think has forced these
sites closed time and time again. My GOD ARE YOU DUMB! What is wrong with
you to be so stupid. To not ask a simple question about a game without
saying you stole it. To not use the website BBS designed for such
discussion.

You are so stupid, why do I waste my time.

     THis is why you have NO ATARI FRIENDS? You don't even deserve to have
a computer. Go get a playstation, you act like 7 year old baby.

Is this constructive enough for you CHAMP.

Yup, Hit the nail on the head.

And here I give the little crybaby help in the original post and he still
complains. What a beggardly little bastard.

Wow, this is amazing... I bet this guy will get bright red in the face again
just by my writing 2 or three lines of text... Let's see if I'm right...

Where in my original post did you see anything regarding piracy that you
ramble about anyways?

My PC version isn't pirate either. I bought it second hand. Unlike you, I
earn enough money to pay for what I want. Oh, I do have a Playstation too...
and enjoying the games on it quite a lot... I think I'll play some more
while you go work your ass off tomorrow, and laughing in advance at the
inane answer you'll make to this.

Well, if you don't know, I guess it'll have to remain a mystery...

After 5 years away from newsgroups, I'm glad to see nothing has changed..
Still filled with the same morons that can't spell... Good ol' newsgroups...

I am pretty sure that openly available pirate material and "public domain"
are not the same things.  Honestly officer the fully automatic * rifle
I have here is legal.  It was readily available from illegal arms merchants
so it must be legal.
