Ubi Soft Petz: Dogz 5 and Catz 5 Compilation  for PC

Dogz 2006 Version Freezes when I select Load from... (by 6 users)


posted by Dogz_Dare on Feb 18, 2008


We are using Windows XP have 2Gb Ram, 40 Gb HDD In a Compaq Evo 2.26Ghz and have switched the dogz.ini file to read 1024 X 768.

We installed the CD my daughter purchased thru Scholastic. It worked the first time she tried it and subsequent tries freeze the PC and we have to hard boot. She has three dogz created so far.

How do you get this game beyond its main menu when you go to select load?

Yep - fixed it already. Went to other blogs and found another setting to change in the same dogz.ini file.

Have to change to read the following:

[Engine.Direct3D]
AllowFullscreenAntiAlias=0

If you have the value '1' change it to '0'

My daughter has restored her faith in my computer savvy as a result! Win-win.

Ubisoft needs to update their support.
