Hello,
Apparently, some users have been able to run strike commander on dosbox. I've been able to install it on a virtual pc, then copy the directory to my dosbox, and apart from the sound that doesn't work, I can start the game in dosbox. However when I want to actually fly the first mission, the screen scrambles, and dosbox quits. Is there anything in my configuration file that I need to change to make it work ?

Thanks,

Yea, i cant even get past the installation let alone the game probs, I've just been able to get wings of glory installed but my memory isn't VCPI compliant and i cant ' edit ' the dosbox config.sys file to fix it I think if we could figure a way to do that we'd fix both our problems....

I can try to send you my installed SC-folder in a zip file (about 17MB). I think I better send it to your email as I think the dosbox-bosses won't like me posting 17MB of files to their forum ??
