Re: Tyrian on dosbox 0.61?

Posted on 2004-07-09, 12:28

Hm. I am now able to run Tyrian within DOSbox. I even got the music running, and boy does it run beautifully (seems like CPU cycles 8500 was the trick on my comp - any deviation up or down, and the game slows down. I also note that detail: Low is needed to make the game not slow down as soon as the …

Re: Tyrian on dosbox 0.61?

I can't get Tyrian 2k to work, either. I'm using DOSbox 0.61, and the Boxer frontend. The problem is, well, that the Tyrian Setup prog gives me some weird error (error to exit: INT: Gate selector points to...), and then DOSbox shuts down. If I try to run Tyrian2k.exe, it just shuts down, before I …

Weird I got the same game and it runs fine... What disc drive, OS, do you run? Check my profile, it's all there... Windows XP professional, drive F: ... I've been reading up - apparently, the SafeDisc copy protections sometimes fucks up completely, as in refuses to run a game even if it's original …

Slave Zero

in Windows
Recently, I played the uniformly bad "X-com: Enforcer" (by did it suck, bringing down the X-com series to an all-time low). I played it for only about 3 minutes before uninstalling it, vowing never to play it again - but something good came from the ordeal: I was reminded of a game I used to love …

Found a stick. Starts up now. Looks really good at the start. Seems to eat up every possible resource. Alt-tabbed out once...took me ages to get back in. Looks like a movie advertisement was a big part of the 150-meg download...hrmmm... Nice intro...mood-setting music...*gack* voices are horribly …

2001, you're right. Anyways, I didn't get the French version, not unless the french version's installation prog and the box art was in english... I'm on a Swedish version of WinXP - it might be that. I could try to install it in a US win98 version I have on VirtualPC...

Well, this is not an OLD game - from '99 or 00, I think... but: I recently bought Evil Twin at a sale. It looked cool and twisted - just the way I want 'em.. I install the game on my XP pro machine, right? Then I run the game. All I get is a weird error which says "Fatal Error #12: Language …

Re: Mechwarrior 2: Battlepack

The trick is that it will probably be only as two separate titles: "MechWarrior 2" and "MW2:Mercenaries" and probably not be identified as TITANIUM on the packaging. IIRC, it uses packing that looks like generic "jewel-case release", but it has D3D support. Check the boxes/jewelcases closely. Ok =) …

MW2: Battlepack edition is basicly MW2 with a few fixes, and based on Win95. Nothing drastic... It does only run in 256 colour mode, and it has less (!) screen modes than the original... It DOES have complete support for all DirectInput units (fancy usb joysticks and so on...) and it has some better …

Mechwarrior 2: Battlepack

I am an avid Mechwarrior-fan, so of course I own a copy of the Mechwarrior 2: Battlepack (although I would like the Titanium pack more...)... There's a problem during installation... It seems like there's a file called getinfo.dll that makes the installation crash under windows XP pro... I have had …

Well, with the help of /nosound and /nounivbe (thanks!) I have noe managed to get to the point where the game does abselutely nothing, as opposed to when it actually told me what was wrong... When I run in XP, it tells me "@ouldn't find>2.c". And that text is VERY garbled. When I run in Dos7 ( …

Hi! There's a game called Angel Devoid - I bought it years ago, and I have as of yet never managed to make it work. At all. It constatnly tells med "cannot initialize UNIVBE" - although I have run the "uvconfig.exe" that came with the game many times, and it reports no problems. I've tried …

Nice... a thread about a game with which I have a problem, so I don't need to create a new thread... anyways. I own WCP, and I love it... One problem: When I run it in direct3d mode, my crosshair and target reticules disappear! They simply sisappear! And the small yellow arrow which points the …
