| Termie | this zip-archive is incomplete! It doesn´t neither contain "INSTALL.EXE" ("SETUP.EXE" is only for the sound setup!) nor the "OLD.EXE" (game-exe). | |

Turns out that my unpacker under linux unpacked it incorrectly and did not preserve directory structure correctly. Once I fixed it, everything worked fine. Just one letter (usually C) will do. There should be only few files under root and most of them under GFX and LEVEL Code:
drwxrwxr-x 2 12288 nov 16 10:29 GFX drwxrwxr-x 2 4096 nov 15 15:13 LEVEL -rw-rw-r-- 1 696680 okt 6 1994 ICVFX.D01 -rw-rw-r-- 1 696680 okt 6 1994 ICVFX.D02 -rw-rw-r-- 1 64 nov 16 10:29 IDMAS.CFG -rw-rw-r-- 1 127570 okt 6 1994 IDMAS.DAT -rw-rw-r-- 1 212384 juuli 6 1995 IDMAS.EXE -rw-rw-r-- 1 46555 märts 29 1995 MFDNS.DRV -rw-rw-r-- 1 5 nov 15 15:13 OLD.CFG -rw-rw-r-- 1 36557 märts 29 1995 SETUP.EXE |

Help with Goran Added Engines Hey there great game by the way. I'm a big car lover and was looking for something like this. Only problem is when I added the file and replaced the old "GAME" file with the Goran file, I didn't get any new engines in the game when I reloaded my save file? Do you need to start a completely new game for it to work? Shouldn't make a difference, or should it? FYI I'm in mid 1910 right now. Tried to research 4 cylinder 40 HP, and the 65 HP, 6 Cyl, but the research engineer keeps telling me it's a stupid idea. Based on the post (10 years ago I might add) those engines should be available by now. 4 Cylinder, 40HP - Fischer 33 (1909, 33HP) 6 Cylinder, 70HP - Rolls-Royce (1909, 65HP) If anyone can help that would be awesome. I would kind of hate having to restart to a new game, since I'm doing so well already. |

Order book bug This game is still one of the best tycoon games. I would definately buy a remake with similar complexity and scale, though preferably with a more interesting mid/late game  I play with the fix from Goran. However now all orders, both from dealers and branches, have the discounted price! Anyone now how to fix this? |

| XavierVelo | Does anybody know if there is English CD-ROM version of Motor City? Almost every abandonware site have floppy version (about 15M), and there is also German version - Oldtimer (about 94M). Was Motor City ever released on CD-ROM? Or was it floppy only? | |

Partial English translation of Oldtimer manual I found this by combing the various abandonware sites: http://ds.old-games.com/199f3e523b/f.../motorcity.txt If that link doesn't work (it may be classified as a download for some reason), then you can find it by using this link instead: http://www.old-games.com/download/4346/motor-city This is only the portion of the manual about the game itself. It doesn't include any of the historical information. I have to admit, it's not as informative as I hoped. However, since others have asked for it, I thought I would share the link . |

| Pelikan | It would be nice to have some old engine specifications. If you are able to provide some data I can try to impement it to that file. | |
