are you sure you used a right command while mounting a hard drive as cdrom (mount [virtualcdromdrive] [realpatch] -t cdrom) ?

Yes, when I have mounted the drive I get:
"MSCDEX: Mounted subdirectory: limited support.
Drive D is mounted as CDRom /volumes/dvdvolume/"

HELP!
I am sorry to dig on this very old thread, but i desperately want to play this game on MAC OS Leopard

I can't play it! I mount the c drive, then I try to execute every file and I can't get it to work! This is what I get with every file:


a) execute the "GO.BAT" file and get this message
C:\HEROES>GO
C:\HEROES\mount d: -t cdrom d:\
Directory d:\ doesn't exist

b) execute the "HEROES.CFG" file and get this message
c:\HEROES>Heroes
Illegal command: heroes

c)execute (one of) the "Install" files and get this message
C:\HEROES>INSTALL
C:\HEROES>SETUP /NODETECT

d) execute the setup file and get this message:
C:\HEROES>setup
Illegal command: setup

what do I do?? I'm running Mac OS Leopard

Are you running the game in DOSBox?
If so, please post exact commands you are using and information about where your copy of the game is located in your directory structure.
Oh yes, and what is the path to your CD (or DVD) drive, since you'll apparently need to modify the go.bat file with it (I'll be able to tell you the exact command to use when I know the path).

I am using DOSBox and those are the commands I execute and the messages I get.

My copy of the game is on my home folders, so it's /users/filipe/dosgames/heroes

I mounted the c: in my home folder:

mount c /users/filipe/dosgames

When I insert a DVD into the drive, any folder in it says to be located in the /volumes/dvdvolume section

Also note that it is much easy to place those commands into config file (AUTOEXEC) of DOSBox, so that you don't have to type this every time you start DOSBox

I did that (but changed the dvdvolume to "dvd_video" because the dvd driver has the same name as the DVDs that you introduce and the one I had was "dvd_video") and I got this message:
MSCDEX: Mounted subdirectory: limited support.
Drive D is mounted as CDRom /volumes/dvd_video

But then I try to execute any of the Heroes files and I get the exact same error messages as my other post !

Sorry, wrong quote

This is the right one

Did you try to create ISO and just mount ISO instead of CD?

Another thing you can do is to copy all files from CD into folder, and then mount that folder as CD.

[Physt]

What ISO file? Do I need an ISO file for this? I just downloaded the Heroes folder from a website and DOSBox and I thought that was it. What else do I need?

Windows version has ISO file which you can burn on CD and then install the game to your computer. No dosbox needed there.
