I would recommend to set up a virtual HDD and operate from there.īasically, you create a folder on your actual hard drive that you mount in DOSBox as the C: drive. This is really not a preferred method of launching DOS programmes with DOSBox. Just to clarify things: you launch SW by drag-dropping it over DOSBox.exe? Note i did same method in v1.2 and it worked. I repeat that i used same methoh as in v1.2 Sw, i deleted SW.CFG and then made setup with NO SOUND, then run it like this: DOSBOX.EXE SW.EXE -fullscreen -noconsole -exit and it didn't work! It only gave me until Shadow Warrior red title screen with that ninja symbol and it freezed! And DosBox Console promot showed weird errors. Now speaking of SW v1.2 i did the following:ġ.) Now i installed fresh copy of Shadow Warrior v1.2 Sharewareģ.) To don't get any conflicts i copied DOSBOX.EXE and SDL.DLL in SW directoryĤ.) Since i used default DosBox configuration and not any user custom one, i tried it and IT WORKED NOW!ĥ.) Also i tried enabling sounds in SETUP.EXE, i had some MIDI problems with WAV works great.īut why then did old registered v1.2 didn't work then when i tried it in past few years ago?Īlso i did same method for Shadow 0.90 and this one still doesn't work? It is problem with BETA version itself? Or maybe i shall try it directly write SW $bullet.map in DosBox Dos promt so then may work? As i heard some uses have isse with Shadow Warrior Alpha 0.9, when DosBox can't handle the title screen but can actual game if batch command used to skip it?Īnyway small mistake, v1.2 shareware from fresg install works, but 0.90 doesn't work for some reason. Thank you for your Avon Thanks for the link i will check it Thank you for sharing that DosBox versions with me, the link worked and i will test it soon. And that worked back then when DosBox 0.72 was latest version, i have 0.74 and for me it doesn't? Again what i am doing wrong and how come other people could run 0.90 and v1.2 without any issues while i can't. On another hand Apha and Beta builds of Shadow Warrior works fine in DosBox but latest version i can run is Shadow Warrior Alpha 0.9. What i am doing wrong? I know that most people could run 0.90 and v1.2 but i can't run even those, they give me same problem as v1.0 and v1.1 which requires some unique SVN versions of DosBox. It promts me to shitty random bunch of numbers and letter (probably hexadecimal stuff) in DosBox console prompt. The thing is that i have read somewhere that onl problematic releaes of Shadow Warrior that won't run on regular DosBox are those initial versiosn v1.0 and v1.1 However for neither SW BETA 0.90 neither SW v1.2 works. But hopefully the graphics mode will get it working.I knew fist think you guys would going to tell me is to update t latest version of DosBox but version i have is DosBox 0.74 which already run most of games. If that still doesn't work, you may wish to take a look at your configuration file, which we can help you with. Post back here to let us know if one of those worked. Just grab it from and install it to the same location as your current version, then try running the game again. It should work with the included version (v0.72) but there is now v0.74 available. See if one of those settings gets the game to run.Īnother thing you could try is upgrading DOSBox. The default is "Surface" I believe, but you can try other options like "OpenGL". There's a little GOG utility called Graphic Mode Setup that lets you pick a few different options. you can get to that from the start menu entry for the game. You are starting the game from the desktop shortcut (or start menu shortcut), correct? The shortcut contains special instructions on running the game, and it will NOT run if you just try to run the executable.Ĭheck the video mode too. What should I do? I want to play my game. I tried it on two different computers one windows 7 32-bit and the other windows 7 64-bit. NightK: I start might and magic II dosbox runs and immediately closes.
