Hi all, I know zork nemesis is a broken game - what dose that mean? I have tried the dos install and not the windows install because the windows install wont work with dosbox. when I try to play the dos install I get an error message " video card dose not support 640x480 at 16 bits per pixel. Your video card may not have sufficient video memory for that mode".
I am using an Nvida Geforce4 Ti4600 128mb 3d card. is there a patch to play it fully on win Xp? if it cant work on dosbox can someone tell me the best way to play it with full sound and video graphics and perforrmance?

Regards
Shaun B.

Broken game = game that doesn't yet work on dosbox (at least on the official release versions).
It looks like there are some patches for the Windows version. There's an installation guide for installing on Win XP here: http://home.earthlink.net/~infernofilecabinet … mesis_guest.htm

Failing that, you could try a CVS (beta) version of DosBox. Have a look at the CVS versions thread to find one. I think some of them have support for 16-bit graphics modes.

Good luck!
