bknight (0 posts) Jun-05-05, 08:42 AM (Pacific) "Wizardry Archives" I have Wizardry Archives and installed most of the games howvever, I get a divide overflow. I think that this is caused by the processor being too fast, so do any of you have a link to the best "processor crippler"? Thanks   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Scary (16 posts) Jun-05-05, 05:42 PM (Pacific) 1. ""From the Bar"" Go back to softwarespecialties homepage, and you can find a couple of links for mo'slo under the heading "From the Bar." However, mo'slo may not be enough for some of today's blindingly-fast machines. I think a lot of folks have been using dosbox to run the old-time classics. Search the forums for "dosbox," and you should get a number of threads discussing how to set it up. (Sorry, I can't help you with that. I'm one of the lucky ones whose computer is slow enough to get by with less. ) http://www.softwarespecialties.com/   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: "From the Bar"" I have installed DosBox, and get the credits to run and the password screen, but when I go to either load a saved game or start a new one I get a "disk error". All the files are loacted in C:\DSAVANT\, so I don;t know how there can be a disk error.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

ShadowCrust (0 posts) Jun-07-05, 02:15 PM (Pacific) 4. "RE: "From the Bar"" I suspect the path in the load prompt is not the path the savegames are located in. For example, I start Dosbox with "dosbox /home/myhome/Wizardry/DSAVANT/ -fullscreen" and in the flashing C:\ prompt I start the game with "ds". Here, the path to the savegames is then simply "C:". Just take care as to what directory relative to your savegames your C: is assigned to.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: "From the Bar"" Thanks, I finally figuered it out when I looked at the dos window, it kept indicating a file creation error, ie Could not find/write to C:\DSVANT\DSAVANT\SAVEGAME.DBS so I changed the file location to just C: as you suggested and everything works now.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: "From the Bar"" has anyone looked for new "cripplers" since mo'slo came out, or is this a case of "we already have something that works well enough"? just wondering P.S. good to be back ------------------------------ Nice things may be nice, but mean things are just cool.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
