Hello everyone,
I wanted to bring this game under the attention of the Dosbox crew, since it isn't in the compatibility listing and I had some trouble to get it work. I got my copy of this game in a CD-ROM collection (Megapak 4) and it has a very sparse manual with no instructions on how to get the game running.
The first problem I ran into was the installation program, it said that I hadn't enough disk space. The solution was to simply copy all CD-ROM contents to the harddrive.
Then when starting the game the introduction would run nicely, but when you select a mission from the menu (training, single mission, etc.) the game crashes with the message: Error: FIPATH.DAT is not in your BK directory!
The solution is to make a file, with notepad for example, with the name FIPATH.DAT and put it in the installation folder. This problem is not caused by Dosbox, I vaguely remember having to do this on old dos too. 😀
Simple enough solutions, but I thought to post this so if people had problems with it they had a solution. I haven't tested the game thoroughly any further, but it seems to run smooth on Dosbox 0.74 apart from some minor soundcrackle.
Cheers, 😉
