Oh yes, it's quite true! But, the good news is that it runs with DosBox , suggest u use D-FEND as well.
Further information on how to do this @ Leon's B.A.R.I.S page

I got the following problem: the game starts fine, I can set my game up and all, but after the newsspeaker anounces me as new chief of the spaceflight-programm, the game crashes very strange: In front, the newsspeaker appears again, however the tabs on the lower and upper end of the screen (budget, date..) appear, the spaceport in the background appears partially and flickery, but I can call up the help-screen (the right-click-thingy) :wallbash: :angry:
yes, I use DOS-Box, 0.65

Did you try using a different archiver to unpack the game?

I strongly suggest you use DosBox to run the game.
You can download it here.

hi again,

I do use DosBox plus DFend and followed instructions, everything is working fine except the videos are playing too fast, although if I click on "play full" when starting a mission it plays at normal speed but every 2nd pixel is black then

... meaning the videos play normal speed when watching a mission full screen but all other, smaller vids, like a prestige first video of the AI or training center are double/triple speed

sorry for the double post, couldn't find a Edit button

Reduce CPU speed when videos or avoid the videos option. Try also all the unlogical solution as shout to the monitor, kick the pc, reinstall the game and try in pure DOS.

When I was much younger, I bought a magazine with a demo of this game. I'd heard it was good. It looked good. But the ruddy demo wouldn't work.

So I come here... and yay! I found it!

But, having loaded it, if I click on any building, when I click on 'continue', it crashes. I'm told DOSBox can't continue.

I think I'm cursed.

I'm using DOSBox 0.65 and D-Fend v2... has anyone any idea what's wrong?
