From the old PC version of DM all my characters are MON Master wizards and PAL Master everything else. I downloaded Steem and the Atari ST versions but when I go to unpack them I get CRC errors so nothing gets unpacked. I haven't been able to get to that area in CSB. I remember from the original ST version that there was an area where dragons were behind bars and blasted their way out. I end up in a room where you fight fire elementals and demons and no way to go further. That wall hasn't opened since so I'm stuck, can't go any further. I think it's the ROS path, but the first time I went down this path a wall opened. I've tried RTC, but I noticed that there are very few creatures compared to the original, and it makes to hard to practice your skills when there are no creatures to fight.ĬSBWin seems to have a bug in CSB. There has been some improvement but time will tell. I've decided to go mostly with alternative medicine. You do not have to reboot to play a DOS game : you can switch instantly between DM2, the Internet, your email, work you're supposed to do !Īlso, don't forget that dual booting is not easy to set up for many, particularly with new machines which typically have XP preinstalled on a single NTFS partition. If you have a fast enough processor(you need >1Gz for DM2), a game will run (or not run) whatever is your actual hardware or OS. The advantage of DOSBOX is that it completely emulates a PC with a SoundBlaster card. If you have a set of DOS diskettes, installing and booting directly on DOS is enough for DM2.

Unless you need W98 for something else, it is not necessary to install it. It will work, but only -if- the sound card is accepted ( a P2 at 400Mhz is more than enough ). If you can dual boot between XP and W98, then you can try the DOS mode of W98. With a machine under Win95 or Win98, it is possible to use the "DOS mode" to run DM2 ( this means : OUT of Windows, because essentially all traces of Windows are removed from memory), with the additional requirement that the sound card is DOS compatible (all recent soundcards are not compatible). The Win95 compatibility option won't help you to play DM2 at work. Failing that, there’s always - groan - an actual Win3.1 or Win95 machine.DM2 does not run under Windows, any version of Windows.

I am trying to get an emulated Mac environment running for another Mac-only I-movie in my pile. This game is for Windows 3.1, Windows 95, and Mac. That brings tonight’s experiment to a screeching halt.

I have no idea how to set it up, either, or maybe it’s more trouble than I care to bother with. This is when I finally recognize that this Win95 install isn’t set up to recognize VMware’s virtual ENS1371 audio hardware. This must be a hardcore I-movie, without even subtitles. Looking at the LS command that is now included with Dosbox-Staging, the following switches would also be useful to have included as well if thats possible: -d, -directory list directories themselves, not their contents -h, -human-readable -l, use a long listing format -R, -recursive list subdirectories recursively -X, sort alphabetically by. It didn’t GPF but it also didn’t play due to this error:
Next, I tried my Windows 95 VMware image. The dialog reads: “Application Error: BURNCYCL caused a General Protection Fault in module 0417 1DE7BURNCYCL will close.” The only reason I typed out that text was so that Google could pick it up and hapless googlers can find this site and learn that, although someone else shares their pain, there is still no hope. Generally, it means that your machine is just too advanced to run this ancient software. This is one of the worst kind of cryptic error messages you can possibly receive. Pressing the Play button is rewarded by this dialog: So far so good, and I appreciate the no-nonsense, no-install-hassle, cut-straight-to-the-chase attitude of this game. When I popped in the first of the 2 game discs, it offered to let me play right away, off the CD-ROM: I’m not sure how I should feel about that, necessarily. I’m seeing that precious light at the end of this cold, dark, interactive tunnel.īurn: Cycle didn’t work for me. Plus, I have at least one more I-movie for each the Sega CD, Sega Saturn, and Mac systems. There could be other games whose I-movie-ness I am unaware of.

According to my interactive movie list, Burn: Cycle is the last known I-movie left in the experiment, for the PC.
