freeze
I know this is an old thread but I had a hankering for playing this game again.
I just downloaded and loaded the game. Everything goes fine until I start a game. The game loads fine, I choose the map, difficulty, loads the map, etc., but when it gets to the page where the first newspaper is on the screen and I'm supposed to be able to start, the game freezes. I can't start playing, it just stays on the screen with the first newpaper. I even started the tutorial once and it worked fine. Any tips? |
Which dosbox release are you using? And on what system?
|
DosBox 0.74
Windows 7 Thanks |
Bump ^

Try asking in Troubleshooting. They are experts for this, and they probably didn't see your problem in this part of forum.
I'm not expert in this, but perhaps try checking sound settings or similar. Try turning off sound in the game, then at least you know if it is a sound problem. |
Thanks. I'll try there!

Edit & addendum: Problem solved, it's not a bug. When all else fails read a book. Quoting from page 29 of the manual: The Area Display "is a schematic display of your railroad. It shows no geography." So, obviously, you're not going to see anything at the beginning of the game before you start building. |
My first post had to be for this game.
By far the best game ever made. I have spent a significant chunk of my life playing this game. Sid Meyer is by far the Chuck Norris of strategy/simulation games. I named my son Sid (not really but I would if my wife would let me)
This game is 30 years old and still delivers. Great job bringing it back ! |
