"i know you are all sick of hearing this, but i need help with dos box" |
I have a problem. I have a really old version of the game that i got in like 1996 on a CD-ROM. I am using dos box, on a 1.76 ghz amd machine with 768 megs of ram. I have gone through all of the strings i can find in here and still don't understand my problem. ds is in C:dsavant, in that directory i have scenario.hdr and pcfile.dbs. The games startup file Play.bat is on the cd wich of course is in d:w7. The problem i'm having is that when i type play, i get a sytem error message that says unable to open scenario.hdr. As far as i can tell from what i have read in this forum which has been a ton, im doing everything correctly. pleas help!!!!!my dosbox conf file is as follows
# fullscreen -- Start dosbox directly in fullscreen.
# fulldouble -- Use double buffering in fullscreen.
# fullfixed -- Don't resize the screen when in fullscreen.
# fullresolution -- What resolution to use for fullscreen, use together with fullfixed.
# output -- What to use for output: surface,overlay,opengl,openglnb,ddraw.
# hwscale -- Extra scaling of window if the output device supports hardware scaling.
# autolock -- Mouse will automatically lock, if you click on the screen.
# sensitiviy -- Mouse sensitivity.
# waitonerror -- Wait before closing the console if dosbox has an error.
# priority -- Priority levels for dosbox: lower,normal,higher,highest.
# Second entry behind the comma is for when dosbox is not focused/minimized.
# mapperfile -- File used to load/save the key/event mappings from.fullscreen=false

# language -- Select another language file.
# memsize -- Amount of memory dosbox has in megabytes.
# machine -- The type of machine tries to emulate:hercules,cga,tandy,vga.

# frameskip -- How many frames dosbox skips before drawing one.
# aspect -- Do aspect correction.

# core -- CPU Core used in emulation: simple,normal,full,dynamic.
# cycles -- Amount of instructions dosbox tries to emulate each millisecond.
# Setting this higher than your machine can handle is bad!

# nosound -- Enable silent mode, sound is still emulated though.
# rate -- Mixer sample rate, setting any devices higher than this will
