Has anyone played this game on Dosbox? Im unable to create a new game because it says i need a drive with at least 50Mb to save a game to.

How do I set DosBox up so that I can save games? I've tried typing the following when i mount a drive...

mount r c:\users\ceri\desktop\cm9798\ -freesize 100 -t cdrom

Am i doing something wrong here? Im useless with dosbox but am trying to follow the readme instructions.

there is an option to Change Directory, but I don't know what to change it to and whether it even matters as it may be the game directory, and not the save directory.

Whatever the problem is it affects my other DosBox game, Heroes of Might and Magic, which is annoying as I need to be able to save the game on that also because it takes ages to finish a skirmish.

I removed the link. (as it is illegal to distribute)
For HOMM:

mount c GAMEDIR
mount d GAMEDIR -t cdrom

Where GAMEDIR is where you installed the game

For CM:
don't mount with -t cdrom

thanks so just to clarify...

its mount r c:\users\ceri\desktop\cm9798

and then R:

then run the program

and with HOMM its

mount r c:\users\ceri\desktop\heroesmm
mount y c:\users\ceri\desktop\heroesmm -t cdrom

with Y being the drive that runs the game, and R being the designated HDD

is that right?
