Zac Medley Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Cool. But I'm getting an error after I installed the game: C:\DAGGER>dagger TES: Daggerfall v1. - 08/30/96 14:05:49 Copyright 1994, 96 Bethesda Softworkd. ERROR: Looks like you inserted the wrong CD. Please insert your Daggerfall CD in your cdrom and try again. I used the following command to mount my install directory as the cdrom and it appeared to install OK: mount D ~/DOS/DFCD -t cdrom -usecd 0 -label Daggerfall I have DOXBox 0.72 installed in Mandriva 2009.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2 Posted July 14, 2009 Author Share Posted July 14, 2009 I'm getting an error after I installed the game:C:\DAGGER>dagger TES: Daggerfall v1. - 08/30/96 14:05:49 Copyright 1994, 96 Bethesda Softworkd. ERROR: Looks like you inserted the wrong CD. Please insert your Daggerfall CD in your cdrom and try again. Did you run the DAG213 to install the update patch? I've found that you also need to copy all sixteen .VID files from ~/DOS/DFCD/DAGGER/ARENA2 to ~/DOS/DAGGER/ARENA2. Then open your ~/DOS/DAGGER/Z.CFG file with a text editor and change the line: pathcd d:\dagger\arena2\ to pathcd c:\dagger\arena2\ now you will not have to mount DCFD as a CD every time you start the game. This will also fix the wrong CD error you're having. Then you should create a dosbox.conf file, if you haven't already done so. Open the configfile and change the line: memsize=16 to memsize=32 Now you can start the game with: mount c ~/DOS -freesize 1000 c: cd dagger fall z.cfg Enjoy the game! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
