Maybe, if you would give full details, how you:
-> try to launch the game
-> your mount lines
-> OS
-> dosbox version
-> ... whatever and whatnots,detailled?
It's kinda hard to tell where you screw things up without even the most basic info from you.

[_r.u.s.s.]

tried that - it still shows black screen

try actually trying please. the command itself doesn't do anything about the game itself.

and if you mean that you've read through the tutorial the "intro" command gives, "SHOWS BLAK SCREEN, DUZNT WORK" is a very strange way for describing what have you actually done and what the problem was

Are you sure you're running it in DOSBox? Because it doesn't sound like that.
Again, remember that DOSBox doesn't start automatically when you're trying to run a DOS game. You need to run it first and then run the game through it.

If you don't know WTF I'm talking about, read A Beginner's Guide to DOSBox - it should explain the basics.

ok - i will clear up

i tried launch the game - via DOSbox - it loads and i chose the lanuage and i chose new game the green screen presented the choices - left click see intro or right click to start
so i right clicked and screen went to blank screen it didn't change to game screen
edit: when i left clicked for intro - it freezes with a error message - hard to see
i set lines as C:\OLDGAMES\NIPPON so when DOS loaded - it was able to start the exe
my os is window xp - all other games work fine
DOSbox version - 0.72 - i don't know if it that problem

Once again:
Your exact mount lines, detailled, as you input it in dosbox.
Your exact inputs to run your game, detailled.

Something as mine:

mount c e:\games\
c:
cd nippon
nippon


Can't be thàt hard to post those..... djees man.
Not something as "i set lines as C:\OLDGAMES\NIPPON". That's NOT a mount line nor an input.

the DOSBOX is mounted on c:\oldgames then cd nippon then ave exe - i hope this will clear up

Ave.exe? FTW, there is no ave.exe, or do you mean adv.exe?

And:
Still not your mount lines.
*sigh*

Whatever you must launch the game with
nippon ,not with adv, it does a check that way and enables the crack.

Again: NOT with adv but with nippon.
Capiche?

Again as you seem to have a problem understanding some things:
nippon

great - game works now

Hi!

How do I leave the cab just after the start? (Play with the smart guy)

I looked at the doll and talked to the taxi driver... (Sumo... Of course...)

Now I only can ask him how long it takes and he says relax.

I can ask him 10 times or just wait 10 minutes. Nothing happens.

Any idea?

I also looked at the trinket and the display.

I used to love this game so thought i'd give it a go again.

unfortunately i got stuck very early on with Dino. i've been booted out of teh museum, picked up all the bill/posters, been to the restaurant and eaten beans, but i believe i need to barter the lighter at honest chans, and i can't!!!


any suggestions?


thanks
