This one, like DW2, is unavailable. Anyone got a copy?

I'll check my version and if found all OK = upload.

Was it not removed because it was sold on www.gog.com ?

i don't if and why it was removed, but the game isn't sold on gog.com

The Cellar topics for any games on GOG.com were removed from the Cellar completely.
So it's not that.

Here's a new link including a patch to version 1.04:

Discworld [IMG/CCD] [166 Mb]
CD image (166 Mb), 4shared

Is that a full or shortened version (ripped of sound, etc..)?

if course full o_O

sorry for double post, but add this into mirrors

http://www.4shared.com/dir/33005980/...discworld.html
it has 1.04 patch too

now sorry for TRIPPLE post but why the hell did you put 215 MB?!

when you click on the link it says 176,502 KB, which is 172 MB

Ok so.. now i downloaded this version:
4shared [ISO] [176 MB] + Patch 1.04


mounted the iso and then...? what to do now? how to install and get the game working??

You read and learn:

http://www.abandonia.com/vbullet/showthread.php?t=20886

well then it behaves like normal cd in dos. so you change letter to drive where you mounted it, dir excutables, install it... of course don't forget to mount some hard drive too

whooops, im sorry.. it seems there was an error when first extracting the iso and so when installing it it could not get all data an didn't work..
my bad, or 7zip's bad to be precise... i'm sorry

Ummm...
 

2: need more info.
OS?
Mount lines?
Did you install the game IN dosbox?
Did you use imgmount to mount the ISOs directly in dosbox? (BTW: No need to burn the CDs ....)

And: did you at least take a look at the tutorials ...? I don't think so.

You need to mount:
1)A virtual C
2)the CD as D in dosbox (or mount the ISO with imgmount as D , highly recommended)
Then install the game from D on C in dosbox
The game must be launched from C

Again, read the tutos PLEASE.

[Edit]
Don't think so, will most probably be AC97 soundchip, not that it matters, dosbox emulates a SB16/Pro/Awe almost perfectly.

To update game (after it's installed of course!)

Extract the 2 files from the update
-> DISC104.EXE
-> UPDATE.BAT
In the dir where discworld is installed, if you accepted the install dir it will be in your virtual C folder named \DISCWLD.CD\
Run dosbox, get in the \discwld.cd\ dir, and input:
update c:
This will update the game, it will also launch soundset again, simply use autodetect for sound and music, works fine.

BTW, after the update you'll need to start a 'new' game. Old savegames aren't compatible with the updated game.

Discworld (1 and 2) is also supported by ScummVM natively in Linux, Windows and Mac.

Much easier to use than DosBox, as it acts as the game interpreter and uses all the game files without any configuration.

Thanks.

It looks to me like the 4Shared files in this thread might not work. I've tried unpacking and decoding them on both a Windows 10 and Windows 7 computer. But, whenever the ISO is created, I always get a "Corrupted File" error when opening it. I'm unpacking them in this order:

*.rar, *.r0, *.r1, *.r2.

So I'm not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong, or if it's a modern Windows compatibility issue. Any ideas?

*.rar, *.r0, *.r1, *.r2 => split rar archive


Do you have all the files in the same folder? The *.rar file is the only file you should extract, the other files are automatically included in the process.
Also, what program did you use to extract? 7-Zip is a good choice...

I figured out what I was doing wrong. Apparently, Windows’ built in ISO utility wasn’t recognizing the raw img file I built. So I used ISOBuster to convert it into an iso, and then I was able to burn it to a CD. :)

Thanks for the update! Works perfectly.:D

Both Discworld and Discworld II isos are available at archive.org.
