First post, by Hexx
Hello,
Can somebody help me? I really like this 1994 RPG game and I own the boxed game (so I'm not using a downloaded version).
The thing is: the game runs fine for the first 1/4 of the game, until you complete the first tower & place the gem where it belongs. There's a cinematic supposed to start, but the game crashes instead. There's this message appearing & disappearing quickly:
"Config: loading primary settings from config file dosbox.conf
midi: opened device: Win32
Exit to error: CPU: GRP5: illegalCall7"
At worst, if only there was a way to disable the cinematics, I supposed the game could at least be completed.
I don't know if it helps, but in the "Installing Hexx" section of the manual, it specifies that the game requires 800k of EMS memory.
BTW, someone suggested "Loadfix", I've tried it but it didn't work. I've tried Dosbox version 0.72 and 0.74. No difference noticed. I've also tried to disable the sound using Setup, it still crashes.
I'Ve noticed on other sites that other gamers experience the same problem.
Computer I've used: 3.6 Ghz Pentium 4 - Win XP SP3 - 3G Ram - NVIDIA GE Force 8400 GS - Soundmax Card
Any help is appreciated! Thanks...
