Re: Microsoft Adventure in D-Fend Reloaded

Posted on 2021-04-05, 13:27

Thanks, but that's a little vague... that's pretty much the only instructions I could find elsewhere on the internet. After poking around a bit more, I found out how to do it. For future reference, and anyone else trying to run a booter game with D-Fend, you need to go to the "Starting" section of …

Many programs do not expect to be run from C:\, but only from a subfolder. Thus, if you have the game in C:\something\MEEN , you should mount c:\something as drive C and not c:\something\MEEN. This seemed to work. Not getting sound though, ugh. The sound config (INSTALL.exe) closes before anything …

@tymime: If you have set up a screenshots or a data folder for a profile to be started, this folders are created when starting the profile or when dragging file to the data folder section at the bottom of the D-Fend Reloaded program window. If you do not want this to happen, you can remove the …

Been using Dapplegrey on my Mac for some time now, but it was just too frustrating, so I switched back to D-Fend via VMWare. Can anyone tell me why D-Fend keeps making empty folders with names like "game title" or "game title1" every time I start them up, and how to make it quit doing that?

Seems that it crashes using that too. I get a big ol' "fatal exit" error. It won't even start up if I use a Windows 98 bottle in CrossOver.

in Windows
I managed to get a copy of this Win '95 game sometime last year when I was still using XP. Every time I tried to run it, it would eventually crash. Now I'm on OS X Leopard, and have been using Crossover Games, VMware Fusion and of course DOSBox to run my Windows software. Is there a simple way to …

Windows 3.1 via VMware- transferring files

Posted on 2008-10-31, 06:53

in PC Emulation
I've got a number of old Windows 3.x games from an ancient computer I used to use. Most of them play fine on XP, but a few of them run at lightning speeds, namely one called "Bang! Bang!" which was one of my favorites. So I installed VMware Workstation just the other day and got Windows 3.1 up and …

Already tried the Windows version: "An privileged instruction was executed at address 00408a31 Click on OK to terminate the program" Hmm. An error message with bad grammar? 😒

Out of my collection, only Dangerous Dave in Copyright Infringement, Leo the Lion, Lord of the Rings, Mega Man, Pinball World, Plan 9 From Outer Space, Rogue and Tetris. And none of them run with sound. The rest I get the same message or they don't run at all.

That gets me an error message: "16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem C:\DOCUME~1\Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\~VLP0D9F.PIF Invalid program file name, please check your pif file. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application."

Finally! Turns out it was running incredibly slow, so I never stuck around long enough to see the title screen. I guess the warning didn't mean anything. I sped it up so that it runs faster, the only thing now is that a frame or two is missing, and the transitions from menu to map to level take too …
