If the admins don't read this and post, you could always PM one of them. But you'd have to register first.

Yes, but we'd have to _have_ a scan of that manual in the first place. Which we don't have at the moment.

I'm a big big fan of this game and it is a bit of a shame to see people having so many problems here.

Are there any chance of this ever being released open source? You only need to find once dev who loved it to be able to port it to new systems.

I know the dev house and publisher no longer exist. Does anyone know who brought the licence? or is it in limbo?

Well, I downloaded this game as it was one of my favorites when I was younger. It's disappointing to see that they weren't able to include the cut scenes or the voices. As it is, though, I have recently found my old CD that I had bought way back when, but I can't seem to install it. I double-click the install file, and it brings up a command prompt for a little bit, but that disappears and then nothing happens.

Is there something special I need to do to install the CD version properly? Thanks!

And don't forget to mount your CDDrive as D.

Seconded - DOSBox. Google it and learn to love it, and download D.O.G from the same page as DOSBox and use it instead of DOSBOX to set up the game.

I use DOSBox, but whenever I try to mount the CD drive it gives me an error. I've tried running the install through a command prompt but was told to run the install off the CD. Oh well, maybe I'll do some digging on the DOSBox site when I get home.

The Dosbox readme says:
mount d X:\ -t cdrom

Replace the X:\ by your real CD-Drive letter in windows.

Maybe you could try that?

Just a thought ......

If you want to learn 'bout dosbox:

Ah, nice. Thanks for the link. I crashed right when I got home from work so I wasn't able to check anything out. I'll try to do that when I get home today. Thanks!
