Hello,

I looked this game up the in game liist for 0.61 support and didn't find it. Tried it out anyway. The game runs from the CD and only installs a configuration file and the gamesaves to disk.

The configuration utility ran OK, as far as I could tell, but on starting the game, a message was shown, saying "System Timer 2 not present".

Eh, what's that supposed to be ? After looking it up in the net, it seems to me it's a component of the PC architecture. Apparently it is not emulated and/or exposed in the latest DOSbox version.

Any idea how soon that may be implemented ?

hey i've been trying with this game as well,
i know it was a real huge game and very good when i last played it...

but can't get it running either, if you know how to help us out please do post the answer here.
i've tried with VDMSound (another dos emulator), but it says DPMI mode; please deactive memory manager, and well i guess they don't support dpmi then? maybe some conversation between the two emulators could get it to work?
thx in advance
