I've just downloaded the original settlers from Abandonia and played it last night for the first time in over ten years, and wow its just as good as I remember from my teenage days on my Amiga 1200. Problem is, I can't save this version though, when I try I'm told disk full or write protected. I've even tried popping a formated disk in to see if this works... but same message comes up. Anyone out there overcome this problem? Every now and again it crashes which is very frustrating when you've been playing for five hours straight and have been unable to save (Devastating in fact) So without the ability to save I can't play AND THATS JUST NOT ACCEPTABLE! Sorry, its just such a good game... Help!

Let's see... try using the switches to the MOUNT command that allow you to change the amount of free space DosBox returns when the games check for it.
Also, the floppy drives (and CD drives) need a few extra swtiches to mount correctly.

Does anybody have any reccomendations for similar games that are like this game but are more recent so the AI is better? Notice how the computer doesnt reinforce strategic areas with forts or doesnt mine to its maximum capability?
I like the way the emphasis is on setting up a good economy and logistics as opposed to the war side of it, The newer versions of settlers just dont do it for me. I always hoped (when i was a kid) that there might be some way of getting the map sizes even bigger and having more players on a single game when pcs got better, any thoughts?
You should try settlers 4 it is one of the latest it is better and at a very low price! about 9 bucs!
