I've been able to play this on XP without Dosbox. But that was years ago.
It worked fine back then, but I was too young to understand the game.

But now I'm experiencing the same thing as others without Dosbox. And I prefer not to use it. It's complex, I think.

You think or have you actually tried using it?
Try starting with A beginner's guide to DOSBox.

[_r.u.s.s.]

no, instead start your dosbox and input "intro"

Well, I still can't find the command to actually run the game. Where do I find that in the guide? It goes straight from finding the DIR thing to a lot of configurating that I don't understand. I just want to play the damn game!

So, quick question with a quick answer, please: How do I start the game!?

You go into DosBox and type in the name of the executable that starts the game. No pain no gain.

DosBox is extremely easy with a frontend. It saves you from messing with commands.

You know that it isn't particularly advanced if I can handle it.

And what would that be? "krondor.exe"?

Because that doesn't work. The DOSBox wants a command in front of it, apparently...

[_r.u.s.s.]

did you input "intro", like i told you? the tutorial horseman linked you is overly complicated in my opinion

* you firstly mount your game directory (input that god damn intro)
* cd to krondor directory (if necessary)
* input krondor.exe

So do I type "input krondor.exe" or what? :embarassed:
