LBA Demo

Both demos work. This is stupid, the demos works but the full version does not. 😠

Hi,

I just tried your "guide" to install LBA2 (original CD french)

But it didn't works 😮(

All install is OK until I launch LBA2, then I've got the little "mup mup" and this message "Veuillez inserez le CD-ROM de LBA2 : Twinsen's Odyssey"
(In english "Please insert LBA2 CDROM....")
So he seam not to reconize my genuine LBA2 CDROM...

What can I do...?

Thanks you for you reply.

Are you using Windows? Did you do all stages exactly as I wrote them?

😀

Yes, I followed your stages as written.

But, no need now, I tried the LBA2 patch. and ....

It works !, so no need of dosbox.

Anyway thanks you.

Guide updated for DOSBox 0.62 😀

one small bug in your guide:

the mount line -t cdrom -label addasf -ioctl

should have a -usecd 0 as well
where 0 must be replaced by yourcdrom number if you do mount -cd

(else it won't work if you have more than 1 cdrom player (and not using the first))

Are you sure? 😕
I use Drive "V:" which is number '1' (while "D:" is number '0'), never used -usecd and it always worked.

well if it has always worked then ioctl isn't needed .

if you omit -usecd it defaults to -usecd 0

It doesn't work without -ioctl.

i take your word for it. but it doesn't make sense.

try if it runs better/still runs if you specify that -usecd #

I tried "-usecd 0" (drive D, not the LBA 1 cd) and I tried "-usecd 1" (drive V, is the LBA1 cd).

They both resulted in not recognizing the CD.

how about combined ?

-usecd 1 -ioctl -t cdrom
-usecd 0 -ioctl -t cdrom => -ioctl -t cdrom (as far as I know)

Just tried all possible combinations (with/without ioctl, with/without usecd, with usecd 0/1).

The only way it works is "mount d V:\ -t cdrom -label ADELINE -ioctl"

Hey im trying to get LBA 1 to load on my PC. I used Win XP and have 1GB of mem. I can mount the CD no prob but when i change to drive D and type install is says the command is illegal, and thats as far as i can get! 🙁

Can someone help plez!

Thanx in advance 😀

How did you mount your C and D drives?
What type for file is that INSTALL ? Try a DIR INSTALL.* and let us know.

LBA1 cd always has an install.exe file on the root directory.
Are you sure you followed the guide I made? (which is a little outdated now..)
