Hi again,

I forgot how to properly type "freesize" command in DosBox.

Could you give me an example how to do it.

When I did it properly before, it game me "200 mb allocated" or something like that.

When I did it now, it gave me "illegal command" message.

Also, do I type "freesize" command before "mount c c:\" command?

Thanks in advance!

mount c c:\DOSGAMES -freesize xxx

It's in the mysterious README file included with DOSBox.

Hi gang. While the game installed fine, and starts up fine, all the choices used in the "machine=xxx" area of the DosBox conf. file leads the game to play with a greenish hue. I then tried svga_et4000 and svga_et3000, and the colors of the intro and logo look fine, but when I begin the game, it crashes. I have noticed this "green hue" for some other games, as well. Is there a reason for this?

Thank you, Dominus. I resolved it by trying the game on VMWare fusion Winows XP/DOSBox 0.74. Worked fine.

I also tried a few other games, like Archimedian Dynasty, and got similar results. Thanks for this.
