Feel free to comment and discuss this game here. Also, if you have any useful tips or tricks don't hesitate to share them with the others! Thanks!

Review and Download (if available) (http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/47)

NOTE: Run Install.exe to configure your controls (don't try to install your game, because you can't), and the run Sensible.exe to start the game. :ok: :ok: :ok:

[Havell]

Where are the copy protection answers?

[Kosta]

When there are a few executable files in a game directory, its usually wise to try running all of them if one doesn't work :rolleyes:

You should run the game with soc_k.exe, not soc.exe

Have fun!

I`ve played this game on a Atari (dont know wich one...it was from my cousins) but it is just too easy to score (same problem Fifa goT)

just walk at the side line...cross at the right moment to the middle and then just shoot...it`s always a goal...

But still for that time..a brilliant football game :ok:

[gdp2000]

Never liked it. Last time I played this was on my Amiga CD32. No wait, I recently tested an open source remake. It is hosted on Sourceforge. The name is Yoda Soccer, I think.

I agree with GrossDomesticProduct2000

[gdp2000]

I'm from germany please explain me the meaning of "GrossDomesticProduct". Don't want to search a dictionary.

[Stroggy]

GDP is a wellknown economical term
its used in the US and the UK to callculate the total ammount of good and services created during a year.
this is called the Gross Domestic Product (GDP short)

the above is a very crude way to put it... but thats the basic of what the GDP is

anyway, back on topic

[Red Diablo]

Also think it's too easy to score, but I've tried to score more special goals.
Not just run forward and shoot, which is fairly easy.

Been trying to cross and head the ball into the net instead...
Heading is a bit silly in this game though. <_<

[wormpaul]

Was this the first (good..) footie game ever??

Or where there older one`s??

[Unknown Hero]

I managed few times to score with head!!!
I also managed to change ball's direction *don't know how to say*:
When you press space-bar and the ball is still in the air, quickly press other direction then the one you were going (if you were going up then press right or left when the ball is in the air).

> Where are the copy protection answers?

click on soc_k instead of soc and type in the "example" they give you at the bottom of the screen.

[Unknown Hero]

You actually don't have to write anything, it will work anyway! :ok:

[cocovan]

Is there any way to play 2 player with both players on the keyboard?

[Unknown Hero]

As far as I know - nope!

[Duffy]

sensible world of soccer was amazing :D:D:D the good old days of playing a season then having to wait 15/20 minutes til the next one loaded LOL

[puma]

Hello,

I remember that in this game, there was the option to play it with custom teams , clubs and national teams, but I only see national teams.
Does not exist the option to play with clubs? (Barcelona, milan, Manchester, etc).

If it exists, somebody can say to me like activating it? I only see national teams.

Thank you very match !

[mouse31e]

This is the original game from 1992, you are probably thinking of Sensible World of Soccer or Sensible World of Soccer 96/97. :D

This does bring me to the question - why don't we have one of the later versions on the site?:blink:

In my opinion SWOS 96/97 was the best! :D

[Unknown Hero]

First of all this is not Sensible world of Soccer, it's just Sensible Soccer.
Second - @Puma - go to "Load/Save data" and there you will find national, club and custom teams! :ok:

[Barrett]

Im with mouse on this, I could go for a game of SWOS 96/97

[Robben!!!!]

How can i play this game for free, have some got a crack for it?
Or how should i install this game to play for free?

I think you (and Robben!!!!) should download DOSBox (there's a link on our main page>programs)! :ok:

......then just run soc_k.bat (in DOSBox) and the game will run smoothly! :ok: :ok:

[gordo]

I just download the game but I cant un it
should I run it from DOS?

[Wahoo]

i remember playing world cup italia 90 aswell for my megadrive, infact, i still have that game :P

First, This is a great game.

Yes you can play with clubs, just push the Load/Save Data button and the load data, and then load clubs team and data. You can alsow rename the teams to what ever you like.

Well, in the begining it would seem very difficult to master controls, but later you will realise how simple they are! Controls are arrow keys and space-bar!

Hint: If you hold up (and have ball) press space and then instanly press right (or left) and the ball will change its dirrection. :ok: (there are some other good things, I will let you to find it out what)

[Tycho]

Space bar doesn't seem to be the key that I have, instead I use the / key. Strange, neh?

PS I don't recall there are any kind of configurations where you can change your controls (try F9).

You don't need crack (if you run soc_k.bat), so you can type anything (or nothing). :bye:

[Guest]

there's a patch to allow 2 players on the keyboard in some polish or yuguslavian swos site.. and it works!!

[Barrett]

Im still wandering if we can actually get a copy of SWOS on here cos its much better.
P.S. my key is "/" aswell

[spiderchild]

i'm getting annoyed man, when i played SWOS (i had shareware version) the ball stuck to ur feet like in most games but in this one it doesn't let me change directiong without the ball just staying on the direction it was........ you all probably have this problem but i can' scores cos i can only run one way! :cry:

[Barrett]

Aye its tricky but its possible, U can run straight at the goal and put a bit of curve on the ball when u shoot, usually works.

I like this game the way it is! It just makes it special because you can't change direction! When you use to it (if you ever do :D ), you will love it! :angel:

[radix]

it's usual not to like a game if you don't know how to play it.

this (ss and swos) game is simply the best soccer game ever made..

i think the review is not giving it the deserved credit :)

[Barrett]

Downloaded SWOS off the underdogs site and it wont give me any decent Job offers end season despite the fact i win everything , anyone got any ideas ?

[JKF]

Hi. I got Sensible Soccer. If I run it with the soc_k file it says that I don't have enough RAM (Yes.......VERY crappy computer I have...Windows 98........You get the picture). I can run it if I use the normal file, but then I have to write the protection code. How do I get past that point???. Anyone know a place where all those effin' protection codes are available or something? Or just how to get past it.

PLEASE MAIL RESPONSES TO: JUMPINGKENTFLASH@HOTMAIL.COM

:D THANKS FOR YOUR HELP :D

[Freeke]

Same prob here :angry: i cannot get past that "enter the word ..." screen
And i dont think its serious if u use dosbox that that removes the protection :crazy: so..if any1 could help me... :bye:

[JKF]

Yeah, please help Freeke and me you guys. I really wanna play this. Best footie game ever without a shred of a doubt.

Fifa??? PES??? Paaaah. Utter trash compared to Sensible Soccer IMO. :sneaky:

IT WOULD ROCK IF ANYONE KNEW A PLACE WHERE WE COULD SEE ALL THE CODES THAT THE GAME ASKS FOR AS A PROTECTION CODE!!!!!

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!!!!!!

If anyone can help us I will send you a picture of a Danish babe. And she's friggin' HOT, HOT, HOT!!!!!!!!!
:w00t:

[Unknown Hero]

@Freeke
Run soc_k.bat file

@JKF

Try this:
- Right click on soc_k.bat file - properties - advanced - check 'Run in MS-DOS mode'

(I hope I wrote this corectly, because I'm using WinXP, so I don't remember good)

[Freeke]

this is not working :angry: i've allready tried that...
just enter anything you want?or the example?tried evrything :hairpull:
or can this only be done in dosbox?
ps i'm not running it on my XP machine, put putting it on a 1,44mb diskette and
try to play it on my w95 machine, for wich i dont need dosbox..

[JKF]

Please help us out or I will start crying. :cry:

[Unknown Hero]

OK, I will uspload my Sensible Soccer! (version 1.2 => on this site the version is 1.0)
In a few days, you will be able to play the best soccer game ever! :Brain:

IMPORTANT NOTICE: My version doesn't work very well. It blocks sometimes, but in most cases, it works! So, I game stops responding for a while, I'm not guilty! :ph34r:

[JKF]

Thanks a million man. You rock. Please notify me via e-mail when you upload it. JumpingKentFlash@hotmail.com

Done!

[Guest]

I get the same RAM message.
But I have another problem:

I can't find the soc_k.bat file
It just doesn't exist.
Or do i have to klick on the install.exe ?
i tried to install it, too, but it just doesn't happen anything.

Thanks for help.

[Unknown Hero]

You have to run Install.exe to configure your controls, not to install the game!

Then you must run Sensible.exe and the game should work!

[Guest]

There is always just this RAM message. :cry:
But it is impossible, that my computer is too bad.
64MB RAM should be enough to run this game.
I don't understand it.

[Unknown Hero]

If you have Win98 then you can try this:
- right click on sensible.exe
- properties
- advanced
- check 'Run this game in MS-DOS'

I hope I told you everything correct, because I don't recall how it looks like in Win98 (I have WinXP).

If you don't have Win98, then get DOSBox!

[Dreadlord]

Was it really that sensible? Or were we clouded by it's evident violence?

[Guest]

i cant run it
i havent also the soc k exe or something
i have only the soc, install and sensible
how to run it??

i have win xp (is that the problem)
my own pc is a win95
does it work with that thinig??

[Guest]

i have no soc_k.bat in my sensible folder
what did i wrong
it works on my win95 machine but what is the word you have to typ in????
please help me further

mail the word to hoite.prins@gmail.com

[hoite]

where to download soc_k.bat????

mail me

hoite.prins@gmail.com

[Unknown Hero]

You don't have to have soc_k.exe file!

Just run Install.exe to configure your controls (don't try to install your game, because you can't), and the run Sensible.exe to start the game. :ok:

[Larakin]

I downoaded your version, ran the install.exe to set up sound, then ran the sensible.exe file in DOS, but still cant get past the copy-protection bit! I have Win 98 but playing in DOS as u told us to. Very frustrating!

[Guest]

yeah me too

can you mail me your sensible folder to hoite.prins@gmail.com
thank you!!

No. This is version 1.1, and in this version you have to run sensible.exe!

For copy-protection answers => Try just pressing 'space' a few times and then press 'enter'. :ok:


can you mail me your sensible folder to hoite.prins@gmail.com
thank you!!

My sensible soccer folder path is D:\Igre\Stare\Soccer, but I am sure this wont help you. You have to do this:
- right click with mouse on 'sensible.exe' (or 'install.exe') => Properties => Program => In 'comand line' write your game path with quotation marks(example: '"D:\Games\Soccer\Sensible.exe"') => In 'working line' write your game path without executable file at the end, and without quotation marks (example: 'D:\Games\Soccer')
- Run game
- Don't cry if it doesn't work
- Don't blame me if this blocks your computer (just kidding)
- Good luck
LOL LOL LOL



Also new note is added at the end of the review. Be sure to read it! (http://www.abandonia.com/game.php?ID=47) :ok:

[Guest_gUEST]

I have tried everything you have suggested on this forum, as have other people, and we still cant get past the copy protection stage. Is there a copy of the manual anywhere that we could get hold of, because all of your copy-protection advice does not work for Win 98...

[Unknown Hero]

I don't know what to tell you! You can try to download DOSBox and run the game in it. I managed to get it working on this way! :ok:

i think this is the right one but ive tested m not

[Unknown Hero]

Is there anybody on the planet Earth, except me, that can play this game!?!?!?!

Ahem. My Sensible Soccer directory is D:\Igre\Stare\Soccer (also try D:\Igre\Stare\Soccer 1.1)

[Tulac]

Goes to download it just to prove it'll work :P...

[Yves]

okay, I'm using DOSBox to run the game and my computer runs on xp. Ive tried using both soc and soc_k to run the game and they both take me to the copy protection screen but i cant get any further. Ive tried typing in the example, no password, space bar and then enter but none work. I've also tried running the game using sensible.exe but that doesn't even get me to the intro screen. I've read all the posts and it seems like a lot of ppl have the same problem as me but no1 has sorted it out yet. Can ne1 help?!

[Guest]

SUCCESS!!!! Just downloaded DOS-Box, and it does work playing it through DOs Box people, so get downloading!!! :ok:

[lukas87]

with dosbox you get trough the copy protection??
OMG im gonna try it out

o m g the dosbox doesn't work with windows 95 ???

[DeathSpark]

Hey Hero!! Is the game this fast!? I try to run the sensible.exe file with MOSLO but it stucks after it runs MOSLO. Can I play this game with a slow-down program without reducing DOSBox's cycles. I can't score a goal on this game so fast!! :wall:

[dezinsektor]

This is a best football game ever. What editor said about hard handling is just a sign that he didn't played this game a lot. Because every player in this game has different skills, so one can have good control, and another bad...
He didn't mentioned that you can choose any league in Europe, S. America, N. America, Asia etc. And that you can play real seasons, advance to champions league or Uefa cup...
Every aspect of football is shown in SENSIBLE SOCCER.

The game actually is very fast. That's why this game is so good (imagine slow Alien Vs. Predator? :blink: - imposible). You have to play it for a while, and then you will get into it and find how easy it is actually to play (I hope :whistle: ). :ok:

erm, where can I get a copy of the soc_k as it is now not in the download and was the only way I could get this game to work

[Gejmer Božo]

Later versions of this game should be posted on this site. First sensible soccer is charming but later versions had many improvements and every soccer league you could ever want! Playing career mode in them and winning the champions cup...priceless. It had features that no soccer or manager game ever matched!
Unfortuneatly playing it can get too easy. Just buy a very good attacker and that's it. Luckily we got a result mode too. Sensible soccer is a true gem! I've still got the 96/97 version.

You don't have to get soc_k file. Just run file Sensible.exe. Everything is written in review and in Readme.txt file in archive. :ok:

You can ask Kosta to give you FTP access to upload your version of Sensible soccer.

Uh, and by the way, I never heard that you can play career mode in any of Sensible Soccer versions. :blink:

[Gejmer Božo]

Of course there is a career mode. You've got it in both 96/97 version and the one before. You choose a club and play in league, with possibilty of entering champions league and UEFA cup. You can also be called to be the manager of the national team in 96/97 version.

[Unknown Hero]

As I already said - You can always ask Kosta to give you access to FTP server, so you would be able to upload that game. :ok:

[fr_]

The game fun came from competition against other players not from playin vs computer

[Unknown Hero]

Is this option also possible? :blink:

We are talking about Sensible Soccer not about Sensible World of Soccer or any other game.

OK. I think I may have finally sorted this one out.

1. Open DOSBox.
2. Mount my sensible soccer directory as C

mount c d:\sensiblesoccer

3. Run INSTALL.EXE to configure my controls.
4. Run Sensible.exe to run the game.

You can enter anything in the copy protection boxes, it will accept anything.

Thanks

Run soc_k.bat file

@JKF

Try this:
- Right click on soc_k.bat file - properties - advanced - check 'Run in MS-DOS mode'

(I hope I wrote this corectly, because I'm using WinXP, so I don't remember good)
in my download i didt get the soc_k file can anyone please send it to korhan1@hotmail.com. i wanna play this game. thanx.

[Christian, Denmark]

Okay. I have tried to get this game to work for almost several years now, and downloaded it from variable sources, and so far I've never made it past the password protection. It was my prefered game when I was younger, so I would really like to play it again :cry: . I'm playing the game on my beloved 10-year old Pentium 133 with Windows 95 and DOS, but of course I am downloadning using another machine. I've never passed the password protection, i've tried pressing space a coupe of times and the pressing Enter, with no luck. I've tried using the manual that someone linked to, with no success either. I've checked all the advices given in this thread with no success, also, for instance passing the setup in install.exe, and running the game in both Sensible and Soc mode. I can't find the soc_k "thing" either.

Now, please could somebody help me? Eventually give me a link to a cracked version of the game or something like that!, or just a working version sent to me via email.

Please. :help:

[Guest_Andy]

[GunshySlycat1]

I'd personally prefer a manager/gm type of deal when it comes to pc sports gaming... Does this game offer that mode? If not, heck, I'll try it out anyway! I just rather have like a console kinda controller when playing games like this personally even though it is quite outdated. It doesn't look bad..though I've seen worse LOL

[efthimios]

[efthimios]

So, none cares for a remake/sequel of the original game? Even when Codemasters are behind it? I think it can be an excellent game, though because I have never played the game on a PC I don't know how the controls will be. I have only played the game on an Atari ST and on Amiga with the digital joysticks of the time.

When there are a few executable files in a game directory, its usually wise to try running all of them if one doesn't work* :rolleyes:

You should run the game with soc_k.exe, not soc.exe

Have fun!
Tried playing with Soc_K.exe, still got the copyright screen... :whistle:

EDIT: I got it I got it! :) Now if I only could figure out the controls.... [/b][/quote]
:help:
I couldn't find soc_k.exe in my game directory...
Are there any other solutions? (don't have a KEY)

[Guest_Dan]

hey sensible-fans,

i love this game so much, but i got one little problem, i can't shoot or pass whenever i run "down-right" (either that or "down-left" i don't remember, but it is diagonal-down). any other direction is fine. does anybody know what to do? i think that this kind of error in the game is very strange...

thanks!


ps: do you guys know "goal!"? i think it was a successor of the kick-off-games. i used to play it for hours and days, but i can't find it nowhere...

[Guest_iceman]

I'm getting GIANT slowdown on mine. Every time my man gets on the ball, the game freezes until I press a different button (and even then I have to press it a few times).

Any suggestions?

Did you use dosbox?, because if you play in windows, you can have some bugs, or maybe because your cpu is working in outhers things..... :ok:

[Junior Soprano]

I've Dled and Installed DOSBOX and just dragged the .exe file onto the desktop shortcut. Is that right? It's now asking me for a word from the manual.

Yeah I remember goal..didn't it come after 'Kick off' though? I think Dino Dini did Kick Off 1 and 2 and then went and did Goal. Oh and then they made Kick Off 3 without him.. that was good.. it had bugs, but it was good very fifa ish.

I remember in Goal there was a bug where if you had a man sent off... you could substitute him.. so you still had 11 players.. haha

[Guest]

I don't seem to have the soc_k.exe file when i have downloaded the Sensible Soccer zip file. I have checked to make sure i haven't missed it when i extracted the files and i have tried both the sensible.exe and soc.exe. Any ideas anyone???

[bruno]

Try to download the game again, i download the game and i have the file...... :ok:

[Guest]

Everything works smoothly, until I start a match. I see 4 vague pitches, a lot of running around but no real lines and things like that...what's wrong?

[Skumpaq]

The demo for the new sensible soccer: Sensible Soccer 2006 is here!

[Duckular]

I dont seem to have Soc_k.bak atall... i've tried downloading and its still not there... i dont suppose anyone could upload that one file as it seems to be confusing alot of people who dont have it?

[pljakobsen]

There seems to be a problem with the controls in the versions of SWOS I have played. When a player that I control is running from the top of the screen towards the bottom I can't make the player shoot diagonally. However, if I run in the opposite direction, i.e. from the bottom of the screen towards the top then I can shoot diagonally.

Any ideas why I cannot shoot diagonally when running towards the bottom of the screen? :huh:

Thx

[Icewolf]

Hihi... I remember this problem well... ^_^

My bro and me were playing Sensible Soccer those days on the Amiga. We used to differentiate between Soccer games where the ball "sticks" to the player and those where this wasn't the case.

Playing sensible soccer is a game where the ball doesn't stick. So you lose the ball when you stop running. You probably play it with the keyboard so you may find it more difficult to shoot diagonally. Having a joystick this becomes much easier.

Be sure it's about your skill and possibility. ^_^ Train it.

[Guest]

i am running swos on dosbox but its a tiny screen !! how do i make it bigger?

[The Fifth Horseman]

Switch to fullscreen mode. Easy like that.

[GöRAM]

I had the same problems when I tried both the sensible.exe and soc.exe to run sensible

Where U LITTLE FISH get "soc_k.exe" file??

Thanks

[goram]

Hi, about SensibleSoccer game
how I get soc_k.exe file? Just I change name soc.exe by soc_k.exe or a link exists to get it?

Thanks!!!

[The Fifth Horseman]

Did you get your copy of the game from Abandonia?

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Unknown Hero @ Aug 15 2004, 04:50 PM) 8796</div>
NOTE: Run Install.exe to configure your controls (don't try to install your game, because you can't), and the run Sensible.exe to start the game. :ok: :ok: :ok:

I think I will just qoute myself...

[Guest_Moe_*]

If i have the actual game and i want to install it but play it with DosBox is this still possible? I'm talking about sensible world of soccer the 96-97 version. When i install it and move all the contents to CDrive and then type sws.exe i get a message saying Cd Rom drive read error!

I loaded the correct drive as the tutorial said with me it's F: for the cdrom drive.

why cant DosBox read my CD Rom drive? i actually own ther game but i think it would run better in dosbox if you guys can help me.

Much appreciated , Moe

[The Fifth Horseman]

This might help (http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?page=Internal+Programs%2FMount#CDROM)

[kostaABZ]

Hello chaps,
Good ole SensiSoc.... Got so excited to find it on the web - and also a bit depressed realising that i am getting old :) - but when i tried to run it, i got a "not enough memory available. SS needs 586KB to run.". I had the same problem with a DOS app at work and the IT guys there fixed it by changing a setting in Windows (using Windows XP Pro at work). Cant remember what setting though and I cant really wait till Monday to ask!!
Cheers

[The Fifth Horseman]

Just run the game in DOSBox.

[Paco]

the Protection Grid belongs to another Game. So add the oroginal pic for this Game..

[jfbarreto]

Hey,

I'm having trouble running the game. After a few minutes playing, it crashes. The image freezes, and I have to exit. Only after restarting the computer I can run it normally, and then it crashes again... Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Joao

[_r.u.s.s.]

what os are you running? are you using dosbox?

[Sorna]

Good evening to everybody!!!

I can't play this game.

I already download it a couple of times, but I can't play it!

I'm almost giving up!

Please help me...

I already saw those who say to click on SOC_k instead of SOC.

The thing is that I only have the SOC!!!!

I even tried to change the file name (please don't laught)...

Please help me...

[SORNA]

Ok...

This time I already have the DOSbox.

I can't understand this program... I'm a loser when the subject is computers, or computers language..

Can someone help me???

[dosraider]

.....Can someone help me???
Yes, there are stickies to help you, you could begin with reading them, as is:
>A beginner's guide to DosBox< (http://www.abandonia.com/vbullet/showthread.php?&t=14406)

Other possibility: type INTRO @ the dosbox prompt, but reading your post chances are slim that you gonna get running things that way..... I think.

[dmassive]

Hi!

¿Can anyone play this game with a Gamepad? :no:

I use DosBox v0.74. My gamepad runs well on other games, but in this one only the fire button works.

I set my gamepad in sensible soccer config (setup.exe), works, but when I play the game only fire button works :(

[The Fifth Horseman]

In the config file, set
buttonwrap=false
Then when you run DOSBox, CTRL+F1 to open the mapper - you'll be able to map the gamepad to any buttons you like (rather useful for a few games with odd control schemes).

[gregor]

There was another version of this game that had all teams in the world and insetad of world championship qualifiers there was world championship. There were also some additioanl teams there with made up names. it would be good if you could put that one on the site as well.

i see the next verison is marked as world of sensible soccer, but i think there should be one more before that one.

and speaking of World of soccer this line form reviewer made me laugh... :-D
You can rest assured that Sensible World of Soccer is the greatest soccer game ever made. Consequently, it has been released to every platform available.

[gregor]

i was right. there really ais another version. this one on the site has some major bugs.

1. when player is replaced the one on the field doesn't keep the number of the backup rather is simply changes to one of player's numbers that are already on the field. e.g. no. 16 replaces no. 6 on the field. he suddenly becomes no. 8. kind of confusing.

2. i once finished the game and a player had a red card marked (as in 2 yellow cards). now i didn't get any yellow during the game. still this player had a red card for the next 5 (!) games.

---
addditionally this version here has no world teams and no world championships but the other one has. at least the ones that were on WC at the time. and world championship there can be quite tough (unless you're brazil :-)). the issue is that the judges are really strict there and not afraid of using the red.


i still can't remember how to exit the game propperly. i think it was soem combo (alt+esc or Alt+ctrl+esc) that doesn't work now due to dosbox/windows commands.
