Default Marvel:Ultimate Alliance problem

Hi everyone, today I got Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, and since I have waited a long time I was very hyped to play. But after the successful installation, i pressed the shortcut button. I then found myself ingame, hearing the intro-logos, hearing the Menu-music but I am not seeing any of it. Only my little blue mouse. So the thing is I can't play, because I only see a black screen and no other visuals (except the mouse-pointer)

Any help would be much appreciated...

Pentium 4 2.53 GHz
1,00 GB RAM
GeForce4 Ti 4200 with AGP8x 128mb
Directx 9.0

Default The Solution! (Maybe)

Yeah, It needs a very powerful computer... And I'm just below this line:

Processor: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 2.6 GHz
RAM: 512MB of RAM
ATI(R) Mobility Radeon(TM) 9200 128MB

The Black Screen problem happened in my case, because my video card lacks hardware support for Pixel Shading and things alike (Can't really tell, not a pro on this).

To Fix this and run the game almost perfectly (There were some transparency problems and some black textures, but nothing that ruins the gameplay! ), I used the program 3d-Analyse v2.36b (Search in google) with only the following boxes checked:

Hardware Limits (cap bits)

* emulate HW TnL caps
* emulate pixel shader caps

Performance

* disable lighting (Without this I would see white squares around flames. You should try without it first.)

3d-Analyse emulates the hardware features the game requires using your CPU. It will make the game runs a bit slow, so you better set it with minimum graphics... Well, It's better than not playing it :-).
Hope it will help someone!

Hi,

i am having the following problem with running 3D ANALYZE: after following your instructions i press the "run" button and receive the following notice:

"could not copy .../forcedll.dll (source) to .../forcedll.dll (destination)"

The file forcedll.dll is not write protectet, and i am running 3D ANALYZE from the game folder ("mua.exe").

Does anyone have an idea?

Are you using a batch file?

It happened to me when I used one. So, try copying ForceDLL.dll from the 3dAnalyse folder to the game's folder. It worked in my case.

OOps, Did you install 3d-Analyse in the Game's folder???

Well, you should also try installing it in another folder. I don't know but both in the same folder can be the problem!

AH! Hell... I'm Always forgeting something...

Select the game.exe ! Not mua.exe

Thx a lot, it is working now!

I was not using the batch file, but i had installed 3D Analyzer in the game´s directory. I removed 3D Analyzer and installed it elsewhere, and after selecting the "game.exe" it worked. I´ve always selected the "mua.exe" before ...

Thx again Tony!
