Tex Murphy: Overseer

I loved this game and if you live in 1998 I would highly recommend it (if you don't have the better looking DVD version - this is a CD release). Even the awesome Nightdive Studios didn't fix the compatibility issues and the game does not work properly on modern machines. If you jump through enough loopholes and get it running, the graphics are corrupted and cannot be considered playable. Skip it, even if you are a fan...

[h1]Описание:[/h1] Серия видеоквестов про детектива. Игры начали выпускать с 1989 года но до сих пор не один русскоязычный переводчик не добрался до серии (кроме последней части 2014 года - Tesla Effect). В игре очень трудный английский и вы не найдете руссика, поэтому не стоит тратить деньги если не владете английским в совершенстве. Поставлю палец вниз (на рейтинг он никак не влияет), чтобы вы случайно не купили игру, которой не сможете насладиться. Я не сомниваюсь игры хорошие и может когда игре будет 40 лет или 50 лет кто-то и переведет их, но сейчас насладиться не получится. К сожалению...

Tex Murphy《神探墨菲》系列第五部作品 这部作品steam版本的质量实在拉跨 上手运行先给你一个莫名的system checker界面 接着又是一个使用ffdshow的弹窗，如果选择不允许，那直接报mpeg2 driver error无法运行游戏 如果选择运行了，虽然可以勉强进游戏，但你会在游戏里发现各种贴图错误，导致游戏体验极差

Best Storytelling and character development for Tex. Has great FMVs and puzzles are alright. The FMVs and story is more serious this time around (which people seem to dislike for some reason) and they've been updated to 480p(?) and don't glitch out during camera transitions. Controls and UI have been updated to be a bit more modern, although mouse support for looking around is still not present. [spoiler] Cliffhanger sucks but we have the sequel nowadays so no need to worry [/spoiler] Technical issues are still present though, which include FMVs not even playing, glitched textures, and crashes (not random crashes). These can all be fixed, just look on the discussions for the fixes. I've emailed and @'d Nightdive like a million times to actually fix the game but they still haven't responded. TL;DR: Apply the patches and play the game, it's worth it.

I love Tex Murphy and was thrilled to see I could buy it again through Steam. Unfortunately it has not been updated to play on most currant pc's Honestly if its up for sale through a modern platform like steam I'd expected it to be fully playable I purchased the entire Tex Murphy games as a bundle and I can only just play Under a Killing Moon but not Overseer or the Pandora Directive which were two I really wanted to play again. Just buy the NEW PC Tex game the Tesler effect but unless the others are fixed they will just have to stay a fond memory for those of us that loved it back in the day

Rubbish not working with W10 so why say Nightdrive studios have remastered it?

It's Tex Murphy being Tex Murphy. You either like him or not. Just wish they'd used the keys to move and the mouse to look, not the other way around. Meh, still love it.

It's really difficult to get this game working correctly. Can the developers please offer a run on DOS box option like the other four games have? If not that, then can you please provide another way to run it? I request some kind of patch from the developers. It's confusing when I try to run the game. It can get Windows stuck in a low resolution mode. I was able to run it with one option and get it going, but If forgot how and the intro and cut scenes could not be run correctly. I'm asking the developers to please provide a better means for running this game on modern Windows machines. I'm using Windows 11. I own the game, but it needs some kind of updated environment to run in. Otherwise, I will never be able to play it. I have more than ample graphics support to run it, but there is a fundamental problem with how the game runs in general. I would love to play it. Thanks. I own all five Tex Murphy games, and I plan on getting the sixth one, "Tex Murphy: Killing Moon Rising", once it is released. Overseer is the one that doesn't work. I love a lot of Access Software games, including Countdown and Crimewave. In an additional request, can you please also put those two games on Steam for sale? (Countdown, Crimewave) That would be great.
