Download Clive Barker's Jericho (Windows)

The game has been tested on Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 10, it works fine. The game supports widescreen and ultra-high resolutions up to 4K. You may experience some small troubles when you play the game on modern systems, check our Guide and Notes for details

Before installation - if you're using Windows 8, 8.1, 10 or 11 - make sure that you enabled DirectPlay if you didn't make it before, read this or this guide how to do it (if you're using Windows 7 or older - just install DirectX from the disc)

Install & play guide:

• Before installing the game - download and install Nvidia PhysX Legacy Drivers, even if you have AMD videocard. The game uses PhysX engine and will not work without installed PhysX
• Mount the ISO image. You will need the utility for mounting disc image files, like WinCDEmu, UltraISO, Alcohol 52%/Alcohol 120% or Daemon Tools Lite
• Install the game (if autorun doesn't work - simply launch the installation from Setup.exe inside the disc). It is recommended to install the game not in default path, but in some other, non-system folder, like C:/Games/Clive Barker's Jericho, so you won't have troubles with fixes or mods
• After you installed the game - use NoDVD, simply copy Jericho.exe from the archive and put it into Clive Barker's Jericho/bin directory, agree to replace original file
• Open the directory with the game and find Jericho.exe. Right click on Jericho.exe - Properties - Compatibility - Set "Run this app in compatibility mode with Windows 7" and "Run as administrator"
• Launch the game and play. If the game doesn't work in compatibility mode with Windows 7 - try to launch it in compatibility mode with other version of Windows (Windows XP SP2 or SP3, Vista, etc.)

Notes:

• If the installation doesn't start - try to launch Setup.exe in compatibility mode with old version of Windows (98, 2000 or XP) and as administrator
• It is recommended to install all versions of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable and NET Framework for the correct work of the game. Also it is recommended to install K-Lite Codec Pack for the correct work of in-game videos
• The game works on DirectX 9, so if you're using Windows 8, 8.1, 10 or 11 - you need to enable DirectPlay: Go to Control Panel, and select 'Programs'. Select 'Turn Windows features on and off', click on 'Legacy Components' and check the box 'DirectPlay'. Select OK, once the installation is done, restart your computer
• There is a rare bug when the installation of the game is not "completed" because the installation process remain on-going, even after the game is installed. In that case just close the process in Task Manager, and run the game through Jericho.exe. And when you'll want to delete the game, use un-installer tool like Revo Uninstaller
• For Windows 10 & 11 users: if Setup doesn't start or you see the message "This App has been blocked for your safety", do the next: run the Command Prompt (cmd.exe) with administrator privileges (enter cmd in the Windows search field, right click and run as admin), navigate to the disk drive (e.g. if the game disc is in drive D:, enter d: and press Enter) and run setup.exe from there (type setup.exe and press Enter). Check this guide for more details
• Same problem may happen when you try to delete the game, so do the similar steps - run Command Prompt with administrator privileges, insert %PROGRAMFILES(X86)%\InstallShield Installation Information\{BE9A67F1-BDD3-4259-9F5C-2EFCE6B3A6C5}\setup.exe and press Enter. Or use special un-installer tool like Revo Uninstaller
• If you are having problems with the game not launching or loading endlessly - make sure that you installed PhysX Legacy drivers. It is recommended to install PhysX Legacy Drivers 9.13.0604, it seems the game works the best on this version of PhysX drivers. If you have any other version of PhysX drivers and the game crashes - delete that drivers and install PhysX Legacy Drivers 9.13.0604, it should help
• If you're installing repack from R.G. Mechanics - the installer of that repack creates second "bin" folder inside main "bin" directory (i.e. Clive Barker's Jericho/bin/bin/) and puts executable file in the second folder, so desktop shortcut doesn't work. Simply transfer Jericho.exe from second "bin" folder to main "bin" folder, and everything will work
• If the game crashes on starts with error "NxCooking.dll is missing" - download that .dll from this page and put it in same directory as Jericho.exe
• The game has no framerate limit, and there might be stuttering of the game on high refresh rate monitors if FPS exceeds the monitor's refresh rate. Refresh rate can be capped by enabling Vsync in game or in video card panel; or you can cap the game's framerate through the video card panel or with one of the apps that allows to limit the framerate
• The game has some hidden graphics options that can be enabled by editing the config-files, check this guide. Also, you can increase Anisotropic Filtering (AF) level in same config-file, or make the game run in Windowed mode, check this guide
• You can change the mouse sensitivity by editing the config-files, also you can change the mouse keys bindings, if you doesn't like the standard bindings (by default the primary fire is on RMB and secondary fire is on LMB), read this guide how to do it
