Maybe you can try to view the disk with 'Undelete/Unerase'? At least in DOSBox? Who knows, maybe some traces of the original files could be still seen.

Then I would suspect that some previous owner has modified that disk by deleting 'Fast Cat' files (whatever that was) and writing there 'After Dark' files, but not all the required files of it 🙁

Thanks for the info! That looks rather strange... What messages do you get when trying to run Adw30.exe? That Admodule.as3 is certainly some file of that application. Does not look much like a game unfortunately :( Seems more like a screensaver: https://www.vogons.org/download/file.php?mode=view&id= …

Oh, I used to make inquiries about this program on another forum a couple of years ago :) It is one of those B&N box releases, but - the problem is that it could be not a game but some business application or something. Allofmynope.mp4, you do not have to have a DOS machine to read the disk - and …

And 'Phantasmagoria' was on seven CDs, still with DOS support. Of MPEG games, I have 'Silent Steel', which is on 4 CDs (but only for Windows).

No, the EGA/VGA difference is certainly not the case here! The game on the first picture is the VGA version, but some broken kind of it probably. The EGA version looks quite different: download/file.php?mode=view&id=81826

Well, as it turns out that sharing ISO images is against the rules here, you would better ask me about that in private messaging!

The ReelMagic card worked in DOS too. I don't know if you thought they didn't or I misread that but I used to own one back in the day with my 386 =). I was talking about PCI. I have three ISA REALmagic cards - of course they work in DOS! But my PCI cards do not - they do not have DOS drivers. @Uka …

I have just found that there was an MPEG decoder card called MPEGstar by California Graphics based on S3 chip that had ReelMagic-compatible drivers. Even PCI boards seem to have worked in DOS (in difference from the real REALmagic by Sigma Designs). The supported DOS titles included not only ' …

OK, I could try to make an iso of 'Power Rangers', but a little bit later! It is not a game though, just some movie (that could be run on any MPEG player, not just ReelMagic). And the catalog is printed - it is not on disk.

Ah, yes, there are some vertical lines visible with the feature connector being used. I did not have them before (see the left picture) as I used a Cirrus Logic videocard then without the internal connector - as far as I know, those lines appear mostly on Trident cards. Do you have one? However they …

There are two versions of Reelmagic, one using a Feature connector attached to the VGA card, and the other using a pass through overlay for the VGA card. As I have written in another topic (https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=63530&start=40#p775144), 'Return to Zork' requires the earlier …

jesolo , thanks for the part of the manual! It is interesting that it mentions connecting PC Speaker to 'Phone' as well. I think the second pin is for ground but, I don't think it's required when you connect the wire between your sound card and your motherboard's speaker header. Yes, but why the …
