Hi. I just bought the game (real bargain: £3.99 from www.zavvi.co.uk), and there's a bit of a problem. There are two of us who want to play the game, but there don't seem to be multiple profiles (so we can have separate saved games; you can't even name saved games, that would solve the problem). We tried playing the game from the second person's Windows account, and it runs fine, but there is no speaking! The only time there's speaking is in cutscenes. During the game, all characters are silent, including enemies, even the main character's yell when falling to his death is absent. Why is that happening and is there some kind of profile manager you can get for Dark Messiah, Vegas and other games that don't have multiple profiles?
We also prefer different controls; he likes the arrow keys, but I'm a WASD convert.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi.

The saves are not stored in My Documents, so there is no profiles option.
After you are done playing, copy your savegame folder from the game's directory into an archive folder somewhere else on your hdd under your name. Or even side by side simply in the game's directory next to the original savegames folder, then rename it with your name. Then the other person plays, and after quitting does the same.
Before either of you run the game, first copy and paste the contents of your personal savagame folder into the default savegame folder.

'No sound' problem can have various causes. Have you tried to run the game as administrator? Also check out this thread.
If you need more help, see my sig.

Nice one, Nero! That should be a workable solution. Many thanks.
