Recoil[PC]1998

Recoil, classic 3d shooter made by Zipper Interactive, first released 1998/99. This release is COMPLETE with the original game CD music missing from the other ISO's that have been seeded before. This is a NERO image, to burn it you need Nero 6 or another program that can read Neros image format. To get the CD music to play during the game you MUST burn the game to a physical cd and keep it in your cd-rom, it will not work using daemon tools although you can install the game that way. The game installs and works fine in all Windows versions, including XP x64. Make sure you select complete installation with the avi files and make sure you go into game options and turn on all effects and put everything to HIGH quality. Some tips: o F5 and F6 controls the information display and toggles between full or no hud. o M opens the map. o 1-9 switches weapons. o You can access "inaccessable" areas by blowing up craters in the ground and use them as a "natural ramps", you can also hide in a crater. o You can destroy objects from very far away, but this takes a lot of the fun out of the game so don't do it all the time ;) There is a complete PDF game manual on the CD to get the initial story and details on weapons and the different missions. Although the official multiplayer servers are long gone you can host your own game once you get tried of the single player. Cheats: During play, press CTRL+X to enable a cheat menu. Now type: ammo Unlimited ammunition cavalry Invincible health Full health hemmit All Weapons killjoy Extra hover tech medic 100% Shields Sorry, there is no way to jump to another level and I don't have any game saves to seed yet.

Recently moved completely to Vista RC1 and although this game wont install it works fine with some trickering.

Here's how to make it work in Vista:
1. Install the game in Windows XP.
2. Search for msvc*.dll in your system folder and copy all dll's it finds into the recoil installation dir (msvcp50.dll, msvcp60.dll ...etc about 7 dll's total).
3. Zip the complete recoil installation folder.
4. Unzip it to a folder in Vista.
5. Right click the Recoil.exe, select Properties, select "Run as Administrator", and "Run in Win98 compatibility mode". Enjoy the game !
Also make sure you have the proper graphics and soundcard drivers.
Can't live without my favorite game ;)

When I run this in hardware mode, eventually it crawls to a near halt. When I run it in software mode it runs fine. Anyone else have this problem ? My graphics card is a Geforce 6200.

leon_merry_kennedy (2011-03-09)

i can get the game working but when im playing in the level there are giants chunks of the screen pixels missing, so it is un playable. dies anyone have a solution?

Shikamaru_0322 (2011-03-25)

quick question guys..
I installed the game and able to play it. My problem is, my tank moves really fast.. like a speed hack or something.. how can I play it in normal speed.

ggaabc (2011-05-08)

I Have Successfully Downloaded the game . But after extracting files from MagicIso Software , the size came out was 423 Mb .
After that i tried installing it asked for Win 98 Or 95.
I am using now windows 7.
Even the install setup is not working !!! any idea ! i didnt use Nero :(

ggaabc (2011-05-08)

And Q For Music Files ; Are the AVI files alloted for music and to be played by burning on CD and running thru My DVD ???

ggaabc (2011-05-08)

:D !!!!! All of u Seed This One of The best games in memory from Old days ! This game rocks !

ryrgh67 (2011-05-30)

Guys, this is a NERO cd image (nero.com) so burn it using the Nero burner and it will be fine !! Game music may need a physical cd in the drive, if you have issues always try burning a cd using the correc software instead of some virtual cd crap that may or may not work !!
The control issue is somethign with certain laptops and only with XP, try running in compatibility mode (right click the shortcut, properties, compatibility).
Install issue: try comaptibility mode, drag the installer onto desktop, create shortcut, right click, properties, compatibility.
The tearing is more difficult, seems never ATI cards/drivers can't handle this game, I would report it to ATI but I doubt they would care since it's an old game, solution: put in an older graphics card.
For most people this game works just fine as it is, just burn the cd properly !

ryrgh67 (2011-05-31)

For those with "tearing"/pixelating issues, the software mode from the first start screen always seem to work and is fast enough on newer computers, doesnt look that good though.

DaGier (2011-06-17)

Thanks for the torrent. The game works but there are 2 problems. I can't adjust the controls. Whenever I click controls in the main menu the game crashes. My 2nd problem is moving the tank, whenever I press forward and release it, the tank still keeps moving forward and I have to press backward to stop it. This is pretty annoying since it's very hard to stand still... Can someone help me out?

JRJ-000 (2011-07-21)

I mounted the game to a virtual drive using Ultra ISO and it played fine. THANKS ah6.

 Cerebral222 (2011-07-21)

Game works well: I mounted it with Alcohol 120's virtual drive, then opened up the disc, right clicked on the "SETUP" appilcation and set the compatibility mode to Windows 98 / Windows Me, then installed the game, works perfectly on windows 7 32 bit. Thanks for this upload ah6, a neat game I use with xpadder. Cheers.

Hizze1337 (2011-10-12)

Any one got this working on Windows 7 64b?
Starting screen is fine, and the sound works in the begining. its just freezes exacly when your about to start playing.
Tried "Run as administrator" "Compability",running directly from a physical CD.
last hope is to download Windows XP 32 bits and hope:(
Anyone know how to fix it, please tell:)
Ty for UL

B.AJAYADI (2011-11-27)

hey! hey! hey! everyone who download this torrent please read this thing:
actually this is a game of windows 98, so after mounting and installing the game open the game's directory folder you have installed.
next from the file "recoil.exe" rigth click and click
properties.
then check the box "run this program in compatibility mode for windows 98/me" option in the list box
then click apply and ok.
then run the game
cheers

Thiopental (2011-11-29)

This one is complicated, but if you want to install this awesome game on win7 X64 you`ll need to install the Application Compatibility Toolkit from Micro$oft.
When you first run the 32Bit version (both x32 and x64 are available), click the FIX button.
On the new dialog window name the program as Autorun and the vendor name EA. Locate the autorun.exe file with the browse button and click next.
Select Win95 compatibility mode and, in the dropbox below (additional compatibility modes) select ONLY --> Layer_Win95VersionLie

wild.child (2012-01-23)

Ahed91 (2012-08-12)

--------------

DuelWieldRoXas (2012-12-01)

Hey if recoil doesn't work then do this:
Click on properties on your recoil exe.
Then change the compatibility to windows 98/windows me
Then run recoil and click on options and click on 1024 x 768 or the highest you can do
should work
Oh and DaGier. Click "s" to stop your tank from automatically driving

BosH_9 (2013-06-03)

well i have installed the game in xp , run with 98/me compatable mod ! when this game starts fine and when i try to play the screen is blurring/crashing. (I tried to mount with deamon tool Power ISO.) idk why this game still crashing ! any one have idea , help !

BosH_9 (2013-06-05)

i got solution for what i had prbs.
Firstly it works with Deamon tools also(power ISO,Virtual clone Drive). I just choose software-Gamez in option menu and i selected max resolution(i had 1024 x 768). thats it i started the game it worked fine.
Note: in game all options worked fine like saving game and loading game and all , but when i quit the game its crashing (i dont have the prob any thing of this one)

GothicFighter (2013-06-22)

The game is not installing. I've tried everything - compatibility mode, Application Compatibility Toolkit but the setup simply doesn't run. It just opens a console window for a split second and then it closes.
I really want to play this game, so if someone has a fix, please share it.
I'm using Windows 7 32bits

GothicFighter (2013-06-23)

Nevermind, had to restart PC.

Adil15101 (2014-01-31)

Does this game work on windows 8??
