Humm I'm trying to play it on new DosBox 0.70, it's fast and the sounds is OK, but the colors are all wrong. The menus and intro are OK, it's just the in-game graphics that are strange.

is this a compatibility issue?

Does the same occur on 0.65 and 0.63? Also, care to show us a screenshot of what's happening?

I am going to download this game because it looks fairly good for a old game. Is it wise to start playing this even if you've never played it before? Or is this one of those games you can only enjoy if you used to play it in the way back? Just wondering if its worth it.

It's one of those games you can happily download and enjoy without knowing it before. Most of those on the site are, since while their graphics might look a tad outdated, the sheer fun from gameplay is superior to that of many modern productions.

Indeed, a great game that Origin created back then. Too bad they didn't finish it due to the time pressure of Electronic Arts (today renamed to EA Games)...

hi, i play the game using dosbox 0.70 but i've run across a problem. i'm in stone cove and i need to create a golem to open the big double doors. i cast the spell, the screen shakes and parts of the golem appear on the ground however it never comes completely out of the ground. i can give it instructions but it does not move so i cannot open the doors and i'm stuck. did any of you get a similar bug? do you have any ideas? any cheats to open the door?

Die it happen every time you reload the savegame and summon him again?

zirtik 11-06-2007 12:32 PM

yes, i've loaded previous saves and tried again (in other places) but it's always the same.

Well, maybe far-fetched, but open the file DOSBox.conf and search for the line [dos]. At ems=true change it to ems=false. If it doesn't help also disable xms, or play around trying to enable one and disable the other cross-over.
