Want to see you install an original game from CD or floppy, happy drag&drop....... :whistling:

Oi, I've already replaaced the archive with one that has 8 character folder name and the inf file separately. You just have to unarchive them in the same directory, the way you always do with the rest of the games.

Okay, I'm sorry I mentioned drag & drop, even though it works.
I'm sorry I uploaded the game
I'm sorry I named the game folder, 'game'
I'm sorry I bothered to make review, walkthrough & maps
Happy now?

My excuses, Frodo, wasn't meant as insult.

It's just that this drag&drop method only work in some cases, far from all.

We're okay ?

:cry:

*sigh*
Frodo, you're taking it far too personally.
Not to say certain people aren't overreacting either.

The recommended means of running the games is through DOSBox' own interface, from a subdirectory under the emulator's virtual C drive, and that is what the archives should be aiming for.
Just a matter of keeping a uniform standard across the game archives placed on the site. :)

Yeah still not going
 
Sorry to break up the Emo party...

But the Game's still not running even with the updated archive. Did I miss something? I have the new file unzipped unto a folder in my Dosprog subdirectory where all the other games are and I open it up and open paratime and type start and the same error must install crap. Any ideas?

Thanks

Where has my post gone?

Again:
You have to mount the directory as C.

In other words:
The PARATIME.INF has to be in your virtual C.

So:
You can also copy the PARATIME.INF to your Dosprog subdirectory.

So,
change the "c" at offset $63F to "a" (since the "start.bat" mounts the folder as a: ).
I changed it to ..\paratime.inf and try to upload it tomorrow.
