I gave me a huge kick that this worked on the cvs a week ago. It was the first game I played on a pc on a hercules graphics card. However in the latest cvs build it is broken (crashes dosbox).

To get it: http://www.mirror.ac.uk/collections/hensa-mic … D%5Btextonly%5D

download and run swh.exe

Looks like the vga update might have caused a bug here? (Oh and don't shoot me for reporting bugs on cvs).

swc.exe (same site works) but hercules is so much cooler.

This project is just brilliant keep you the good work.

This was running perfectly until the latest hercules patches. Now when I launch swh.exe it hangs dosbox and when i load the cga version the screen looks weird like it is vertically interlaced not drawing all the lines with machinetype=auto.

Having said that if I change machinetype from auto to cga swc.exe runs perfect and when I change auto to hercules swh.exe runs perfectly. So I'm happy but I wanted to make sure in case it was supposed to run on machinetype=auto[/img]
