Still doesn't work!:mad::mad::mad:

fuck it, i give up

just chill. maybe explain a bit what exactly you were doing and what exactly happened. you didn't even tell us your OS. i remember that on MAC this one had an issue and we figured out the problem. you are not running on mac, are you?

Right. Haven't had to reconfigure the game since a long time now, so I didn't remember that detail until I checked again. You have to run the setup program under Windows, apparently.
That's odd, as it worked in an earlier version of DOSBox... at least I think I remember it did.

Also, you never actually mentioned if you got your copy of the game from Abandonia, a different site or are trying to run an original CD you own. This is quite an important thing.

Furthermore, please tell us the mount configuration you're using in DOSBox and the name of the folder the game was placed in your dos game folder.

Youngsters these days... hope you reconsider that decision.

Have you tried using a front end for dosbox yet? I as able to get Xcom 3 running after toying with the settings for the new D-fend project, De-fend Reloaded:
