no, there are also the installed files from "CD" (aka. the substituted drive S.
the problem with the ZIP archive is the included INSTALL.OPT file. there are wrong paths written.
you can look at it with notepad. its a simple text file. the wrong paths (C:\BIOF\ in this case)

:tai:

THis is my mistake guys, i can't believe i missed this. There wasn't supposed to be this BIOF directory, only C: but i missed this. That is why you can't get it to work and it worked fine for me.

All right, the easiest way would be to simply erase every BIOF and BIOFORGE from the INSTALL.OPT and mount your BIOFORGE directory as c: in DosBox. You can open INSTALL.OPT with notepad.

This is how INSTALL.OPT shoul look when sound card is set to none

Dir=C:\X\BIO\BIOFORGE
TempDir=C:\
PlayDir=C:\gamedat
text=C:\X\BIO\BIOFORGE\monitors\text.flx
MsgPathE=C:\script\Emessage.txt
MsgPathF=C:\script\Fmessage.txt
MsgPathG=C:\script\Gmessage.txt
language=E
KeyboardExt=E
Soundvol=100
Musicvol=100
Gamma=50
ScriptDir=C:\script\*.*
Figures=C:\body
Items=C:\items
MusicPath=C:\music\music.flx
SoundDir=C:\sound
SPEED_FACTOR=2
_TIMETEST=1
subtitles=1
SOUND=OFF
SndPort=0
SndIRQ=0
SndDMA=0
SndCardId=0
MUSIC=OFF
MusicPort=0
MusicCardId=0

Now if for example your Bioforge directory is in D:\GAMES\BIOFORGE simply mount in Dosbox like this
mount c: d:\games\bioforge

then you can start install to set sound and after that run Bioforge.bat

You need to make virtual S: which is copy of X directory but that is done in BIOFORGE.BAT so you don't have to delete the subst S: because it is done from DOsBox.

I'M VERY SORRY, i will fix the problem right away, i just need to put this modified INSTALL.OPT in the archive, only it might take some time to upload
