I only have one problem getting star control 3 working with DosBox. That is saving will not work. When I try use the save game screen it does not save and the load game option is allways ghosted. What should I do to fix this? I am using XP with Service Pack 2.
TIA

I read something about a game with a similar problem. Maybe it was SC3? Anyway, they said not save in the first slot.

I can't see how you are ment to save to a different slot?

Seen it too, recently, I think that user had done it by saving twice. And then loading the second one.

And remember, all files must be not readonly and not hidden.

Found it :
Zombie Wars & Alien Carnage

Hope this helps.

There were some Hidden but with that fixed I am still not able to save my game. If I run SC3 with any doxbox I can save but the graphics are crippled.
