Okay, so I downloaded the game, opened the zip folder, opened the install file in XP SP2. I try to install to c:\discwld, but it says, "Cannot open: DW_1.RNC" Did anyone else encounter such a problem? If so, I would appreciate any help you can give. Thanks.

You have to download the Decoder fix, "DECODE.EXE file in download zip must be replaced with file from Decoder fix (download above). Then run UNPACK.BAT. Read README.TXT file if you are using anything higher than Windows 95."

OS X, but thanks anyway for the advice, I'll be sure to check it out!

Hmm hit a bug here.

With the game installed exactly at C:\DiscWld, the Save subdirectory is automatically created when I first start the game.

However, whenever I save, it seems the current directory gets changed to C:\DiscWld\Save. So the next time I hit a new area, it will crash, saying xxx.gra not found. e.g. the one when you first exit your room is unseen.gra.

Any idea how to fix this problem?

I also encountered this problem, but i don't know how to fix it. But it seems to happen randomly to me, and i found if i saved it just before i changed areas and it crashed, i went back to just before and tried again and it worked. I suggest saving alot.

The day I download an awesome game i love that's also completely flawless is still yet to come... <_<

My temporary workaround to the problem is to NOT save a lot.

When you save, the current directory gets changed from C:\DiscWld to C:\DiscWld\Save. Then if you need to access new areas, the game will crash. So after each save I'll need to exit, launch and load.

But I saw in this thread that this game is pretty difficult. So I'll need to save a lot.

In this state the game isn't playable. :wallbash:

I also had the same problem until I copied all the files from discwld in the SAVE folder... there problem solved

Why didn't I think of that?! :wallbash:

Hi i have a question formo the game, that i dont know if the game have a bug or im beign too impacient.
Well the fact is that i use the pickpocket whith the pocket of the barber, Ricewind do so, put his hand in the pocket, but i get nothing. Im sure that if a can do that im must get somthing back.
Ijust want to check that.
Thanks.

You need to make him daydream about his milkmaid LOL. First talk to the lady, then look at her hair-roller, talk to her again. She will now ask the barber to put it in his pocket. Talk to him, and when u see the dream bubble above him, use pickpocket on him.

Strangely enough I also thought of that just before Dark Piedone made that post. But it still did it for me anyways, just not as often...

First of all Clown-man. I wasn't complaining about this place not having the HOTU version. But about me getting neither to work satisfactorily. 'Aight? ;D

Second, yes I tried pressing F1. And I tried clicking save. And it won't save period. If I hadn't tried pressing F1 I'd have more likely asked 'so how DO you save anyway?' Note that I didn't.

My post wasn't just aimed at you. Sry if I sent the wrong message. (BTW my name is Mr. Uptight and White :P)
Anyway back to topic.
