Thank ypu for your NON-disponibility and your NON-kindless!!

I have a problem with your program and i tought you could resolve it, you don't even tell me what "COULD NOT PASS: CRATING SWAP FILE" does it mean.

Sweet. Compliments. We get them so rarely.
"COULD NOT PASS: CRATING SWAP FILE" does it mean.
Exactly what it say's (except for your misspelling).
No one here can help you if we do not have the game. All we can do is guess. My best guess is that:
1. The game files are set to read-only or the directory only has read access set.
2. You have the memory misconfigured for DosBox.
3. You have the game misconfigured.
4. The game is corrupted.
5. Possibily DosBox a dosbox bug.
How do you "crate" a swap file?
I don't neither know what a "swapfile" it is!!
Here my problem, maybe if i know the meaning of "swap file" i will resolve (maybe) the problem!

I felt so loved when I got my very own copy of these compliments as a personal message. I instantly decided to help this person in a very Buddhist way.

I too used to yell like that when I was in trouble, but I think I stopped when I was 5 years old or such. But I guess it still works for leosmesc when he wants his mothers attention, otherwise he too would have stopped long ago.

Solution to the problem is quite simple, and actually mentioned in
the README thing that can be READ (!).
Mount some drive as c: like "mount c d:\oldgames".
I mount the directory!Obviously!
mount d: d:\dosgame than
d: than
cd airlines
D:\AIRLINES: (when it is in this mode i wrote the start-file(in this case
runme.bat))
"D:\AIRLINES:RUNME.BAT
could not pass: creating swap-file" (<this is my problem)
Ehi minimax: You are so likeable! mavattelo-a-far-stroncare-nel-culo-testa-di-cazzo!!! (<italian proverb: who laugh last, laugh best)
I mount the directory!Obviously!
Yes but you didn't read my post. Don't do a "mount d xyz" but "mount c xyz".
And if you don't stop insulting people the thread will be closed.
Yes. now it works tnx to all.
Have fun, and be nice to MiniMax next time.
Hi,
I also have a problem with this game, in my case it’s the mouse pointer disappearing, even every time I use ctrl f10 it’s gone after a few seconds. Maybe I could tolerate this if the mouse would stick around for a minute or two but as it is I have to ctrl f10 frequently.
