Yes, but didnt understand it. I would be glad if someone explained to me, in a easy way 😀
Well those are the easy explanations, you don't want to read the others 😉
Basically they guide you step by step, if you don't understand some step
feel free to ask, same if some step simply doesn't work for you.
Okeii, it stands i shall mount it from a CD, but i dont use a CD.
But i did mount it from the directory at my HD, so now, how do i load it, so the game runs?
Well depends, where's the game (full path), how did you mount it?
Z:>mount C "C:\DOSBox stuff\MyGame" Thats the mount command i used..
But MY full path is D:\Spill\Settlers2\Settlers2gold\
S2.exe
So i did write Mount D D:\Spill\Settlers2\Settlers2gold\..
Heelp me someone, plz 😀
What's the response when you type
Mount D D:\Spill\Settlers2\Settlers2gold
?
"Drive D is local directory D:\Spill\Settlers2\Settlers2gold"
Thats the message i got..
Ok, that's fine so far.
Do you remember dos commands? Type "D:" to change to the
d drive (which you just mounted), then type "dir" to see what
files are there. Those should match what is in your
D:\Spill\Settlers2\Settlers2gold
directory.
Yes, good. I got up a list for that folder, all the files.
And what now? 😀
You need some crash course in ms-dos commands mate.
type d: to change to d drive
then type in the command used for starting the game (bat, com, exe are all executable extensions).
E.G. s2.exe or play.bat

Yes, i wrote D:, and ..
D:\>S2.exe, but nothing did happand...
So is s2.exe really there? (look at the output of dir)
What means "nothing happened", no message or something?
Try install or setup as well.
Ok ok. yes nothing did happand, no messasge or nothing, just a "clear" line between the lines..
install/setup?
what is the size of s2.exe ?
I thought you started settlers2 usign a different executable though

How to ask questions the smart way!
Hmm s2edit.exe is working.. The map creator thing..
hmm but fuck(sry the language), why is s2.exe 0 byte?
Does i smell reinstall?
sounds like a corrupted executable and a reinstall is a good idea
