good job bobinator!

"Can't load .wav file" error
 

Looks like nice game, but it's NOT working :( on my DOSBOX 0.72 Disabling sound doesn't help. Please help.

It's working fine, with sounds enebled, but: you must mount the \talosv\ folder directly as C in dosbox.
Meaning: if your game is stored as c:\oldgames\talosv\ your lines must be:

mount c c:\oldgames\talosv\
vig1


[Edit]
If you have a C mounted in your dosboxconfig you simply can umount it with:
mount -u c:
before mounting talosv as C:

That's peculiar. My copy is working fine without that.

Now that's what I get when I use my normal mount:

I must run it with e:\games\talosv\ mounted directly as C:

BTW, the screenies used on the game sheet are still in the download.... ?

In "DOSBox.conf":
mount c f:\dosgames\shorted
C:
In "Talos V.conf":
cd talosv
vig1
exit

The game seems to be a notch sensitive about paths, but should run with e:\games\ mounted as your C drive.

Oddly enough, it didn't work for me when I used regular DosBox, but it works fine in D-Fend. Try that.

Problem is the crummy D-Fend setup.cfg if you use a basic folder mounted as virtual C:
Unzip the archive to c:\oldgames\talosv\
Delete setup.cfg in c:\oldgames\talosv\
mount c c:\oldgames
c:
cd talosv
setup

install path:c:\talosv
playback device SBPro
220
7
1
High or very high quality depending your PC
save and exit
This will recreate a correct setup.cfg.

To run the game:
mount c c:\oldgames
c:
cd talosv
vig1


That's because D-Fend-for-TeHn00bs mounts the game folder as C:, and that's the whole shit when peeps -(as me)- uses a basic folder as virtual C and then cd to talosv folder.
It also means that the uploader used D-Fend and zipped the games folder ready to run in D-Fend.
Yes, I blame YOU, bobinator1992 .:p

BTW, pretty nice game.

So we have to fight a sociopath at the end?
