Judging by the information on the DOSBox site and the fact that a lot of people have posted things like "It works without any problems. Set ems=false in DOSBOX.CONF.", it seems like there should be no problems at all with this game...

I can't get it to work. When starting with a new character, I either get a cacheblock overflow (with dynamic core) or "CPU:GRP5:Illegal Call 7" (with normal core). I've tried changing a million things in the config file.

Since so many others have apparently gotten U7 to work without problems, are there any suggestions? Thanks.

Depends on whether your using the official DOSBox 0.61 or the CVS DOSBox 0.62 (unofficial builds) from what I can say. It does work in the CVS Builds. I dunno. I've never had problems running it... 😒 wish I could help more than tried a newer build.

Well, alright, I answered my own question. I knew it had to be something stupid that I overlooked.

Those errors above were caused by the directory path being too long. It looks like it cut a few letters off of a filename that was referenced. Seems to work fine now.
