Hi,
I have a problem running BI2. I couldn't find any sollution on the internet yet...
I can start the game with DOSBOX from CD without any problems, but in this case I do not have any sound (because the soundcard etc. is not set in the setup). I installed the game, but when I type "bi2", it says all this stuff, then "INIT COMPLETE...", and then returns to the dos prompt. I mounted the CD as CD with all these options the other threads in this forum suggest, but I have not yet been successful 🙁
My computer:
WinXP home
AMD 1400
512 MB RAM (PCI 2700)
Epox 8k3a+
NVidia G4 TI 4200 with 64 MB RAM
Creatve Audigy2
Thank you for any help 😀
EDIT:
Ok, I convinced it to run finally; I had to set a different cd-path in the SETUP-program, because I have a BI-Compilation cd.
Now I have the problem described so often: The enemy destroys my units, no matter what. I tried all these different mount-options already posted here, but it did not help 🙁
EDIT2:
Ok, I solved it, finally. To anybody who has the same problem: I had to copy the subdirectory "BI2" from the CD on a new CD, where this directory is thr root directory, and name ist BATTLEISLE2. This problem has something to do with the copy protection, and occurs mostly on people (like me) owning the Platinum Edition (BI 1-3 + Incubation).
And now, finally, afters hours of browsing forums and trying, I can play...
