Spider-Man

Windows - 2001
Also available on: Mac

Super-hero games are always difficult: you want to include challenge to the players, but you want the hero to still feel “super” in the hands of the player. Spider-Man shows a bit of promise and comes close to being up to the task.

Spider-Man has wall-crawling, web-slinging action, super-strength, and even his spidey-senses in this arcade-style adventure beat-em-up. He even has Stan “the Man” Lee offering narration at the beginnings of each level! Unfortunately, what he doesn't have are decent camera angles or a robust quality assurance inspection.

The arcade-style play can involve having to rewatch cutscenes and narration over and over again as you try to get the level right. The clumsy camera means it's difficult to see around corners or where you're supposed to crawl or jump or what bad-guys you're supposed to not get shot by. The poor quality assurance means Spider-Man is full of game-breaking bugs that will prevent you from finishing the game, including ones that will corrupt saves or leave you stuck in a loading or cutscene loop.

There are a few ways to get around some of these issues; certain bugs are allegedly due to framerate issues [cutscene loops are supposed to occur when framerates exceed 30 FPS], which can be resolved with programs and tinkering that will manually cap the framerate at which Spider-Man will run. But is it worth it? Since there are many game-breaking bugs and the framerate issue is only one of them, it's hard to recommend the PC port of this title.

Review By P. Alexander

How to Play

All versions of the game including ISO version of official CD generates false positive warnings on VirusTotal, because of obsolete .exe and .dll files, it is safe to use. dgVoodoo files may generate some false positive warnings too, because files has no signature, it is safe to use, dgVoodoo is being developed for many years already and it doesn't have any history of malware.

The game with NoCD, dgVoodoo and RTSS has been tested on Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 10, works with no problem. But the game still has some minor bugs because of poor PC port, read our Notes

Install & play guide:

  • Mount the ISO disc image. You will need the utility for mounting disc image files, like WinCDEmu, UltraISO, Alcohol 52%/Alcohol 102% or Daemon Tools Lite
  • Install the game
  • Also it is recommended to install DirectX 8 from the disc
  • Optionally install NoCD
  • Open the directory with the game and find SpideyPC.exe. Right click on SpideyPC.exe - Properties - Compatibility - Set "Run this app in compatibility mode with Windows XP" and "Run as administrator"
  • Now download dgVoodoo utility and install the setting according to this guide. Or you can use our dgVoodoo config, simply copypaste files into the game directory
  • And now you need to limit the game's framerate to 25-30 FPS, originally the game was designed to work at 30 FPS maximum. There are 2 ways to do that:
  1. Install an app that allows to limit the framerate, like RTSS, Bandicam, DxWnd, etc., read this guide for framerate limit utilities, here's also video guide how to use RTSS with Spider-Man (2001) game
  2. If you're using dgVoodoo 2.75 or later version - open dgVoodoo.conf with Notepad and find the line FPSLimit = 0. Change "0" to "25" or "30" to limit the game's framerate to 25-30 FPS
  • Launch the game and play. If the game doesn't work - try to launch the game, then open Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del by default) and check for processes SpideyPC.exe and rundll32.exe. Close SpideyPC.exe but don't touch rundll32.exe (it's a Windows app for running old apps from 32-bit operational systems, most old games running through rundll32.exe). Now try to launch the game again, it must work. Don't forget to close rundll32.exe process in Task Manager after finishing playing

Repack by Magipack includes configured dgVoodoo with 30 FPS limit

Notes:

  • The game works the best with dgVoodoo and RTSS. Simply set dgVoodoo setting like here (and leave FPSLimit = 0 in dgVoodoo.conf to avoid complications), download RTSS, add SpideyPC.exe in the list and set framerate to 30 FPS, then keep RTSS opened in the background. Launch the game through SpideyPC.exe, not from desktop shortcut
  • Our config for dgVoodoo is set for the game's original 4:3 screen ratio, but you can play the game in strected widescreen if you want, just open dgVoodoo Control Panel (dgVoodooCpl.exe) and select new screen ratio in "Scaling mode". Also, our dgVoodoo config has 30 FPS limit, so if you want to play with RTSS and dgVoodoo - first open dgVoodoo.conf and set FPSLimit = 0
  • FPS limiter in dgVoodoo may give stutters on some systems, so if you have stutters - use framerate limit utilites
  • There's a bug in "Chase Venom" mission bug that causes Spider-Man to follow an improper path while chasing venom out of the building near the end, causing Spider-Man to become to far apart from Venom, causing a game-over. The solution for that bug is to set the framerate to 20 FPS
  • The game supports gamepads but has trouble identifying new controllers. If the game doesn't identify your controller - read PCGamingWiki guide

Here is the result after scanning the file on VirusTotal and submitting it to Gemini:
(( Delete this file immediately! Do not open or run it!
The scan result from VirusTotal indicates that this file is infected and contains actual, highly dangerous malware—this is not a false positive.

🛑 Why is this file so dangerous?

The alerts shown in red indicate serious threats:
• Trojan.Hosts: This type modifies core Windows system files (the "Hosts" file) to redirect you to fake websites or block your device from accessing security and update servers.
• Trojan.Win32: A malicious Trojan horse capable of stealing your data, spying on your device, or creating a backdoor for hackers.
• Virtob.Win32: A malicious virus that replicates itself and corrupts other executable files on your computer.

🛡️ What should you do now to protect your device?

1. Delete the file: Go to your "Downloads" folder and completely delete the compressed game file.
2. Empty the Recycle Bin: Ensure it is permanently removed from the Recycle Bin.
3. Run a quick scan: Open the built-in Windows security software (Windows Defender) and perform a "Quick Scan" to ensure nothing has compromised your system.
📊 Comparison: dgVoodoo alerts vs. the alerts found in your file:

That is all.

everyone is saying that the dgvoodo is a trojan horse but it is actually false .because dgvoodo has to force the .dll file to run the game so windows defender becomes suspicious and reports it as a trojan bt it s safe to use.

!!! NO VIRUS AT ALL !!!!

Simple steps to install the game after downloading the ISO zip file

Steps are as below:-

1) Download the ISO zip file and extract it using winrar or any other extracter.
2) Extract the ISO file using PowerISO.
3) Open the ISO file extracted folder and RUN "Setup" file and install the game.
4) Download the NOCD zip folder (I downloaded the 721 kb size one) from the given downloaded link and extract it and open Crack folder, copy the "SpideyPC" file from it and paste/replace it inside the actual game folder where you have installed it.
5) Enjoy!!

Thanks a lottt, this brought me back my good old memories!
The following steps worked for me on my Windows 11:
1. Download and unzip the ISO version (476 MB)
2. Open it directly and run the setup (It worked for me without any ISO mounter)
3. Download and unzip the NOCD (721 KB)
4. Replace SpideyPC.exe inside the game folder with the SpideyPC.exe file inside the zip
5. Right click on the exe - Properties - Compatibility - Set compatibility mode to Windows XP (Service Pack 2)

Enjoyyy!

If you're having trouble loading a file by clicking "Continue," after exiting then go to your options and choose to load file, then go back to home screen and click continue. This will pick you up where you left off. idk why it doesn't allow to continue without doing this, but it does.

Peter Parker 11 Nov. 2024

For those of you wondering what's the difference between the multiple versions:
- "Full-Rip with dgVoodoo (4:3 screen ratio, 30 FPS limit) English version 440 MB" is a .zip archive with the game already pre-installed, you just need to unzip and play
- "ISO Version English version 476 MB" is the .iso CD image for the English (US) installer version, you need to unzip, mount, install and play
- "Repack by MagiPack English version 411 MB" is a .zip archive with a custom (not the original) installer inside, you need to unzip, install and play
- "Setup English version 467 MB" the .zip CD content for the European installer version (FR, GM, SP, IT, UK), you need to unzip, install and play

Note guys that once you've installed the pc port make sure you get an app like Bandicam or DXWnd to limit the game's fps to 20-30 because anything higher than that will result with bugs and glitches.

For installing this program make sure you get something like WinCDEmu as you cannot mount the mdf file with window's default file explorer.

Right click on the mdf file and hit 'open program with', look for WinCDEmu and just mount it like normal and you'll run the setup.

Once done download the nocd fix here and just paste it (overwrite the files) in wherever you installed the game.

I also followed ANUSEB's comment.

Err, Robert. Bobby. Bob. Bob-o. The link you provided to the wikipedia clearly states the game was ported to PC in 2001.

"The game was later ported by different developers to various systems including the Game Boy Color and Nintendo 64 that same year, as well as the Dreamcast and Microsoft Windows in 2001."

Hello all,

To make the game work for you.

1) Open the Abandonware's guide (read about iso image and how to run it): https://www.myabandonware.com/howto/#isocuebin

2) after you run and instal the game, extract Spiderman_No_CD_fix and copy-paste the files in the folder where you have installed the game (click yes to replace files).

3) If it still doesn't run, access spiderPC properties run Compatibility Troubleshooter, follow the steps then save the settings.

4) All done, enjoy the game :)

For evryone having problems like black screen,dll not found,file specified not found,disk not inserted.Just follow the steps below properly and your problem will be resolved.
P.S i faced all of them.
1. Download the file(it would be in zip format)
Then extract it.
2. Two files will be created one of .mds and second of .mdf .
3. Using Isobuster(web based service) open both of them.
4. There you will see lot of files under both of them.Don't go for individual extraction instead select all of them at once and then extract them in one of the drives preferably C.
5.Search for the setup having 76 kb size or others as available and then install it.
{You might face issues like installation won't start or stop in between like 'file not found in drive'}
In that case again try for installation.
6. Download the *fix* available above,extract it.
7.Cut it and paste in the place where earlier file was stored(overwrite it)
Store all of them(all setup files) together specially D2 file in one folder so they can be easily found while searching.
8.Then run it.
Congrats game will start !!
