Why shouldn't it work... I had some sudden crashes into the desktop without a notice and not at the moment of CD switching. Sharon (writes in this thread): Jiri, my game crashes into the desktop without notice too. But I have 2 types of crashes. ONE: sudden crash TWO: when i insert another cd …

Yes, majority of games use 640x480, but there are others that probably need different mode. For example, I´ve written here about Ark of Time and more games could have a similar problem. This game reports "vesa not supported" in the latest CVS of DOSBox and also in VirtualPC (I thing that emulated …

Eh? Is there a difference in his settings from the earlier tested configurations? Yeah, working MPU-401, I also thought it was my discovery. It was, try to believe me, I swear. ;) Or am I missing something? This thread is so looooong. So here is my Pandora Installation Walkthrough - i've tested it …

It is a good news, Inferno is also here. Welcome, I know your site (thank you for it) and I thought you would find a way here someday, it's a small world after all :-) Amber is sadly still long way from cracking. It currently waits if Colin switches from preparations to installing of Director and …

Vesa 1.2 works fine enough for now. According to documentation from vesa.org, VESA VBE 1.2 should have more than just 8bpp modes - but Vesa test reports 640x400x8bpp and 640x480x8bpp in DOSBox and no other modes. Is this report correct? If so, are you planning to add more modes with resolutions …

Nono, you see, LINGO is compiled into the EXE; there is no way of retrieving it. Here is an info from dirOpener pages: "Lingo is a programming language that has been developed by Macromedia to allow you to program things in an easy to understand language. The director engine(that translates machine …

I'm surprised nobody has made a thread for this one yet. Interesting. I was also surprised and wanted to do it. I found some threads which can be interesting in this regard: http://webforums.macromedia.com/director/messageview.cfm?catid=186&threadid=348535&highlight_key=y&keyword1=director%205 …

Hmm.. The Flight of the Amazon Queen would run here in Windows 98 without any optimizing, tweaking and the like. Strange, I don´t have Win98 now but I´ve had this OS before and I remember I couldn´t run this game straight in it, I always got "not enough conventional memory notice" regardless of …

Sounds about right. Someday we'll have to make a concentrated effort to break through this compatibility wall (again). At least part of the effort seems it should concentrate on how to tell these "detection" programs that the video card really is VESA. It would be great and I´m looking forward for …

You might try seeing if you can't find the Playstation version (I have it). Thank you, but I don´t have Playstation (and I don´t want to buy it because of Ark) so the only way is to use an emulator. Besides, such an old game is probably hard to find and I doubt that this particular title is worth …

I've already tested it under DOS the video problem still remains. The last weeks I tested over a hundred of games running under XP, Win98 and DOS - this is the ONLY Game not working with my Card (Geforc3 Ti) under any of the operating sytems. Maybe some VESA drivers could help? Are there others …
