KeymasterI’ve played tic tac toe with a friend (man that game is lame). I tried the Decision Wheel or whatever it’s called, but got a javascript error so it didn’t work. The rest are all labeled “coming soon.”

ParticipantThe games are not avaiable in every country yet. If you go to http://www.kapsoft.co.uk and scroll that page, they have directions to trick msn into them working. Aparently the directions only work in XP, but check it out anyway.

What operating system are you on. I’m having the same problem, and I’m on Win98. My friend is on XP, and they work for him.
EDIT: Oops just read that other reply. That seems to be why maybe I can’t get them working. Possibly the thing he told me to do only works for XP. Oh well…..
All I know is the ConfigCache is the thing to edit to get the games working lol

KeymasterHas anyone tried the kapsoft games patch that detn8r shared? It supposedly gets games working on not only XP, but also 98/ME/2000.

ParticipantGood, I’m glad that talk with Karl (admin at kapsoft) I had got him to update his site with the patch.

XP or other Win version?
For XP: search for ConfigCache.xml (should be in C:documents and settingsapplication datamicrosoftmsn messenger)
enter ConfigCache.xml in notepad and find http://appdirectory.messenger.msn-int.com/. at the end of that line there will be two letters represtenting your country (ie UK). Change that to US and the games menu will work.
For Win 98/ME/2000 – find ConfigCache.xml and edit it in the same way. Sorry, no idea where it will be.

MemberUPDATE – download the games patch from http://msn6.shorturl.com it automatically updates the XML file (on any windows version), and has the windows XP patch for the rest of the games in there. For other Windows versions look @ http://mess.be for the instructions (requires use of HEX).
