Okay, I got it to work. I was using cdrdao which was making a .toc file instead of a .cue file. I used toc2cue to convert it, and mounting worked. I've installed Descent II, but there's one problem: the redbook audio is white noise. This has something to do with cdrdao I think. As far as this thread …

the names are descent2.iso and descent2.bin, minding case. and there are a few versions of the instructions, some say -t iso and others say -t cdrom, and some say to include -fs iso and some don't. But as you can see, I tried all possible combinations. edit: is there a way I can check if the cue …

Btw, about DXX-rebirth: it lags on my quad-core/4MB/768MB VRAM system, even at lowest resolution with no optional effect. I could try to troubleshoot that, but I have a feeling solving my mounting problem will be a much easier resolution.

Okay Dominus, I've trying making and mounting a bin/cue, following several slightly differing instructions on the dosbox wiki and manual. First I mounted C: mount c dosgames then I tried the following commands and got the same error each time: imgmount d dosgames/descent2.cue -t iso -fs iso Could …

how about http://www.dxx-rebirth.com/ Ah, I was unaware that the "improved" effects in DXX-rebirth were optional. But I just read that they are. I'll check this out.

Is the original CD or a copy? Original. make an image (bin/cue not iso) of the CD and imgmount that. I'm unsure how you think this will help. It will be mounting an image to a drive all the same. Well, the trouble with the "play it the classic way" - there is NO fps limiter in the original Descent/ …

sry mate, but D2X-XL and I have some beef with each other. I'm strongly opposed to the idea that higher resolution textures, alpha effects, addition of unnecessary interface components, etc. constitutes an improvement to the game; and in this case, it made the game worse. I'll either play it the …

nope.

I'm trying to install Descent II in dosbox on a linux system and after doing the following: Copy code to clipboard 1 Z:\>mount d /mnt/usb2 -t cdrom 2 3 Z:\>d: 4 5 D:\>install I get the error: Copy code to clipboard 1 Error: Descent II CD not in drive. 2 INSTALL must be run from your Descent II CD. …
