Re: Elder Scrolls 1 - Arena

Thamx for the imputs everyone. I have decided to junk 073 and revert back to 063 entirely . . 073 fixes the sound problems that plagued 063, but the games run just as good under 063 and it is alot easier to play them there and listening to crappy sound is a small price to pay for the convenience of …

Re: Elder Scrolls 1 - Arena

Yup that is the case (most of the time). Usually only happens when I use the Edit Configuration option though. I got both Daggerfall and Arena to run normally by changing the cpu setting from auto to fixed and fooling around with cycle speeds until I got it right. Which brings me to another …

Re: Elder Scrolls 1 - Arena

Yes, I did find that there was a window still active ater exiting that I had to close manually with Task Manager, Once I did that, I could re-run DosBox without rebooting. However, it still does not explain why, when I use the Edit Configuration Utility, the same thing happens. Dosbox is not running …

Re: Elder Scrolls 1 - Arena

Thanx, I'll give that a try. I did have some success with chainging the autolock option from true to false and running the game in windowed mode seems to help somewhat also. But it is still sometimes a problem to get the blade moving and this is only against rats and bats 🙁

Re: Elder Scrolls 1 - Arena

OK and thanx for that info. I have Daggerfall up and running under .073, but I have two problems. Problem 1; Concerns the game itself. The mouse appears to be working properly, except when I try to SWING a weapon. According to the tutorial, holding down the RIGHT mouse button and moving the pointer …

Re: Elder Scrolls 1 - Arena

Well. I still have to run it under DosBox as I no longer have the disk and as far as I know there is no way to make the system reconginze the files on the virtual disk (dfcd) other than thru the emulator. If there is another way, please let me knoiw.

Re: Elder Scrolls 1 - Arena

OK folks . . . problem solved!!! The game files were somehow corrupted. I took the advice given me and downloaded and installed it again and it rums fine now. A second note regarding Daggerfall. . I disregarded the advice I have been trying to pound into my son's head for a long time now . . "if it …

Re: Elder Scrolls 1 - Arena

Nope changing those two parameters didn't fix it. Still getting the same error at the same place - right after character creation and at the end of Ria's dialog. I'm begining to think it is a hardware problem because it did run fine with my old 1.7Ghz Celeron system under Dosbox .063. Thanx for your …

Re: Elder Scrolls 1 - Arena

Yes I am using V1.06, downloaded from their site several years ago. It was running fine on my old Celeron 1.7Ghz/1GB RAM Machine, but since I upgraded to a 2.5Ghz Dual Core/4GB RAM system and an updated Graphics Card (NVidiea FX 8400 GS/512MB RAM) . I get ths strange error and CTD. Most of my old …

Re: Elder Scrolls 1 - Arena

Well, that didn't work. I added loadfix to the config file, thusly: loadfix mount c c:\DOSGAMES c: I know it worked because I got the message: Z:>loadfix 64KB allocated DOSGAMES mounted as drive C: C:\> when I typed in the directory contining the game and the startup filename, I got the same error …

Elder Scrolls 1 - Arena

I am running a dual Core P4 machine w/3GB RAM, NVidia FX 8400 GS 512MB Video Card and a 24" AOC slim monitor. I don't have too many problems running Dosbox with most of my old DOS programs, but I can't seem to get Arena to work. I get an in game error "Memroy List Blown" right after Ria Slimane's …
