Well i reviewed it, and oferred the archive(full!), but i couldn't provide the screens.After about 2 months, i asked what was the progress, and Kosta provided me with a link to an(other) utility that takes screens in DOS.It also failed.There seems to be some kind of memory conflict between Lands of Lore and any screen capturing software loaded into mem... about a month ago mad e fact contacted me, saying he has screens for the game, and could provide them.I told him to tell Kosta, and that was the end of it...
Another note would be that the archive that would make it up would surely be a rip, as we lack the space needed by the archive(~120 Mb - full)

Can't you create screen shots in DOSBox?

Also there are couple of Screen Capture utilities that work in DOSBOx. Which one did you try to use?

[Omuletzu]

Ahem... i only use PURE Dos to run old games *moment of pride*.I have tried Screen thief and Vthief, and both resulted in a system lock up :angry:

Oh, I see. You're talking about the cd version. There's a floppy version as well, which is only about 11 MB. Maybe you should get that one instead? Not that I can supply it, but maybe somebody else can?

[Rogue]

Have you tryed Screen Thief version 2.01 or some early version?

Also, you can upload the game, and then someone else can create Screen Shoots with DOSBox or VPC.

Both reviews I did took about a week to get put up. Just thought I'd add that highly useless bit of information.

Man this sucks LOL. I had Lands of Lore, and could easily take screenshots (took shots to show my friend what the worm in the Dwarven Mines looked like) and did both sucessfully. x_x It's too bad I no longer have that shot, or the game. To my knowledge, I used DOSBox, but which screen-capturing method I used, I forget.

However regarding screen-capture in dos, Omletzu, Maybe what I do will work for you.
Do you run them in complete, utter, PURE DOS? Or COmmand Prompt? If command prompt, try alt-enter then printscreen. It's what I do ^^.

The quickest update was 10 minutes, the longest was 7 months.

Yep, I uploaded a bunch to my folder on the FTP server and send a PM to Kosta. Not much more I can do. BTW, I have the CD version of the game, the image is about 300MB in size. Dunno which files could be ripped though, they aren't clearly labeled.
