MrFlibble I've noticed that sometimes the left mouse button in DOSBox locks up for some reason, try clicking the right mouse button once, if this is the case, the left button should get unlocked that way.

Japo To switch mouse control from Windows and DOSBox you can also press Ctrl+F10... If that's your problem

Scatty Try pressing ALT+Enter to change to window mode, click with the mouse somewhere inside the DosBox window, and see if it works then. The game has sometimes issues after starting it in fullscreen.

Hey, Im a big fan of the elderscrolls series, I've played Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim, and want to try Daggerfall, and i followed the posts to solve my problem with the no cd thing, but now when i start a new game and go to click on a province, it doesn't do anything. I know it is not locked up because I can move my mouse fine and i can go back to the main menu, and I've tried pressing every button on my keyboard but it just wont work. Anyone know whats going on?

Hmm, this could happen because some files are missing - specifically, the video of the audience with the Emperor. Make sure you have all the files installed properly, and the folder from the Daggerfall distributive is mounted as a CD-ROM drive.

Different problem. I get error code 13. Help pleeease

I've had Daggerfall on my laptop since last summer it used to work just fine then i stopped playing it for several months now im trying to start playing it again i reinstalled it and followed instructions to run it under DosBox 0.74. After the title screen, I start new game, after I've created my character it goes through the intro video then goes to the screen where it says "imperial palace midnight" then I get kicked out with an error message:

Daggerfall has encountered an internal error at 0.
The error reported was: Code: 13 not found in
Exiting...
C:\DAGGER>

I have tried to find info on what to do. Can anyone help me with this problem?
Thanks!

Japo @triskelian, did you download from here the archive you're trying to run?

After unzipping contents of the ZIP file, you can start the game by drag'n dropping "Dagger.bat" onto the DOSBox shortcut--but this file must remain in the same folder as the "DAGGER" sub-folder. (You needn't read any further, the rest of the information is aimed at advanced users.)

If you prefer to set things up yourself, this installation needs the game at the path "C:\dagger\". The game was supposed to be started with "dagger.exe", but since the CD is not included, enter "fall z.cfg" instead; this will skip the preliminary tests (CD, mouse, memory, file handles...) See also "DOSBox notes" below.

Panthro triskelian:

The information you need should be here:

http://www.uesp.net/wiki/General:Pla...s_under_DOSBox

That website is really helpful, and should hopefully solve your problem!

triskelian Hi
I'm new here.I spended my life with consoles than with computers but I now I'm in love with the RPGs from the Dos-age.
Lands of Lore is my Favorite for the moment.But Iwant to try Daggerfall.
I've already installed the game.Sound,everything seems fine.Back in the Dosmenü I had to typed "dagger"
But instead of beginning the game a message says:
its not the right cd rom inside.
What have I to do?
