I am having trouble transferring characters from Gateway to the Savage Fronteir to Treasures of the Savage fronteir.
I have searched the forums, but have been unable to get proposed solutios to work- plus im deployed so internet is crappy at best 🙁
I have the .74 version of DOSBOX. As I am not DOS- Savvy at all, I have :cheated" and have been using a frontend, specifically DOSSHELL for my DOS gaming fix.( The Frontend points to the executable file and runs the game, so I dont have to type commands).
I am running Windows Vista 64 bit.

My GATEWAY game is at C:\dos\gateway-to-the-savage-frontier\gateway-to-the-savage-frontier\GATE
My TREASURE Game is at C:\dos\treasure.
When I set up GATEWAY with DOSSHELL, the executable program asked me for a savegame path (in this case F/ SAVE) since I am using F as my virtual drive. No problems playing or loading GATEWAY at all. When I started up TREASURES , again using DOSSHELL to point to the executable file, it gave me no option to set up the save path. Upon starting TREASURES, the game starts just fine but i am unable to transfer characters from GATEWAY, nor can I save characters in TREASURE. It tells me that it cannot locate either path.
I hope a DOS- Savvy person could walk me through the required steps to set up a save directory for TREASURES, as well as transfer my GATEWAY characters over.
I really appreciate the help, and patience with my DOS challenged self.
