Correct. I have a folder created call BOX and all "DOS Friendly" directories created inside that folder - Including one for Defender of the Crown. The Defender of the Crown disk images resides in the directory C:\BOX\DCROWN. I have a *.conf file created for it with the following autoexec.bat section …

Thanks again, el_PuSHeR! Well, that solved it. Game plays perfect in Tandy mode now - No crashes - No freezing up. It's a shame the version that is widely available is hacked in a way which leaves the Tandy version crippled. As the 3-voice sound is a *big* improvement over the PC Speaker. While …

oops... 😀 Okay, thanks for the heads-up...My address is: treb8691@hotmail.com Thanks again, El_PuSHer - I am very thankful. Best Regards, Trebor

I sent you an e-mail el_pusher, thanks for the reply. -Trebor

That would be perfect, el_punisher. However, Private Messaging has been disabled for this board and I do not see an e-mail address for you in your profile. Thanks for the reply, Trebor

In DOSBox version (0.61), Thexder in Tandy mode was perfect. There is no problems with the game. It is evident in this latest version (0.62), Thexder in Tandy mode has incorrect colors. Thanks for Reading, Trebor

I really truly appreciate all the work and support you have given me in trying to get Defender of the Crown to run in Tandy mode. I'm happy to say with your modified Loader the game progresses further than it ever did. Unfortunately, trying to Raid a Castle results in the game freezing after it …

Thank you for the information wd, I really appreciate the response. However, I do not know how to perform the tasks you are describing to do. If at all possible, can you kindly provide exact details as to what I need to do? Can I apply a fix to the game permanently? What you're stating makes sense, …

Here are the "interesting" results with different values for loadfix on defender of the crown: No Loadfix command used going all the way up to loadfix -43 results in my original post - Crashes with Illegal Opcodes after 'Insert Reel 2' Loadfix -44 thru Loadfix -56 results in the Game freezing/ …

Ok loadfix -10 Fixed The 3 Stooges. However, with Defender of the Crown same results as my original post - Illegal opcode errors and crashes after "Insert Reel 2" Thanks though for the fix for 3 Stooges. Fantastic! -Trebor

For The 3 Stooges I tried: C:\3STOOGES>loadfix stooges.exe Results in 3 Stooges playing without any sound. For Defender of the Crown: C:\DEFCRWN>loadfix defender.com I receive the following: 64 kb allocated Sorry, the DOS memory required by this game is not free.64 kb freed. Anything I'm doing wrong …

Please, can you explain what is loadfix? What do I need to do? I would love to get Defender of the Crown running with Tandy sound. Yes, you are right there is a similar issue with Three Stooges. Again, please elaborate on what needs to be done using 'loadfix'. Thanks In Advance, Trebor

In an earlier post concerning Defender of the Crown, 'Fizzban' did some debugging and related the following: "Starting at 8000:9573, the game is copying data byte for byte to 8000:0000 (probably some unpacking). It keeps the target position of the next byte to write as FAR pointer at 8000:0126. …

A little more information...The 'information' window that remains in the backgroung provides the following with different CPU cores: Using "dynamic" CPU Core, a message appears stating: Exit to error: Illegal Option Using "normal" CPU Core, a message appears stating: Exit to error: CPU:GRP5: Illegal …

The game is freely available and downloadable from: http://www.cinemaware.com OR... you can visit Home of the Underdogs to obtain a copy of the game. This is the issue...The game works fine with version 0.57 of DOSBOX - EGA/Tandy colors with PC speaker sound only, nonetheless, the entire game is …
