Hey, Constructor is such an old game and there are no copyrights anymore. Nobody owns it. So it is legal. Besides, even if I wanted to do it nice and purely clean, I couldn't. Can you tell me a place, where to buy the Constructor CD? I'd really buy it, but noone sells it.

Well... it took a while, but I fixed it. Have you installed your "D-fend" in the DosBox Directory as it says there?
Once you' ve done that, a window should appear on screen when you run d-fend. You then clik on the add profile icon on the left of the toolbar in the upper part of the window.

You than must browse just like when creating a shortcut, and select the .exe file of the old game you want to run. And the set up file. Then, it's just a matter of "screwing" around with those settings. They must sumhow be according to your computer's configuration.. or al least sumthing close. The memory setings are the most difficult to get right. THis old games don't have enough memory availble to run, beacause of the way too many drivers and prograns, and whatever that a computer constantly runs when operating nowadays (plugins, graphixboards, dunno -kinda lost touch with the hardware/computer world in the last years). Leave a e-mail, or mail me @ the adress in my profile, and I cam probably tell you more.
Sorry, I've seen your post a bit late. Hope it's still of some use to you.
Keep in touch.

What version of Windows dou you use? I have XP, and amazingly it worx.


ps: TheSuper. Thanx for you answers. :bye:

By the way... 'never played Street Wars. It is still under license/copyright control??! If not, is there any place I could find it on the internet for downloading?

Thank you.

Yaay! I've got 2 computers with Win98 SE installed on both of them and the full version of Constructor too (400 MB). In order to play multiplayer you must set up an IPX connection protocol, TCP/IP will NOT work! I connected the two computers via crossed-ethernet cable. Works fine! IPX is stable, but only in LAN. You can't play through internet. LAN is fine for me! It is really challanging to compete against each other (human players), much MUCH more fun than playing against a computer enemy.. Besides, computer enemies CHEAT!!! They can build houses even if wood yard is not built. And they have unlimited money, because you can steal from them forever. Which means they don't have to worry about the rent and they can make tenants to make babies only. And they never upgrade rooms, they don't need it.

Hi, OK, so I downloaded Constructor. I read all the forums and ended up downloading DOSBox, learning how to use it, then it was too slow, so I downloaded D-Fend, which took away the slow-ness NOW all I have left are complete disabling of movies. Everyone here is saying goto options in the game and disable the animations yet the options in the game only let you disable them alittle bit. So, does anyone here know how to disable all animations COMPLETELY? I'm assuming one would have to go into the files wich ==complicated stuff yet I'm pretty good at figuring out by trial and error. Please help, I've done my part by learning about cpu cycles, dosbox, and D-fend. Thank you so much
