If you have a program associated with this type of files (that isn't a text editor), right click on nf, hover on Open with and click on Select default program. Before you start editing, make sure to create a backup copy, just in case you do something wrong. I personally recommend Notepad++ and this is what I will be using. For editing you can use pretty much any text editor, although it'd be best if it was a basic text editor like Notepad and not something like Word, cause these may auto-format some sections and essentially corrupt the file. The config file you want to edit is nf (or dosboxPHANT if you already have a program assigned to this format and you haven't enabled displaying file extensions in Windows). This will open an Explorer window, with your files for Phantasmagoria.

In the upper right corner click on the button for Movie Detail to set it to On.Īnd that's it.
#Phantasmagoria game setup full
Click a button, left of a Half Screen to change the FMV display mode to Full Screen. You'll see the game's option screen, which looks like this: You'll see the game's main screen, click a huge P in the middle of your screen. Skip the chapter intro - you'll watch it later. If you have just launched the game and clicked Watch Intro, you probably saw something that looks more or less like this: First of, we will start with fixing these abysmal FMVs.
