Since I can answer the first, assuming you're using DOSBox, edit dosbox.conf and look for EMS=true under memory, near the end. Change it to EMS=false and voila. No EMS. |

I must admit that Blackthorne was always one of my favourite Blizzard games. I really enjoyed the gameplay. I agree that it seems a little shallow compared to the likes of PoP, Flashback & Out of this World, but I think Blackthorne is to platformers what Quake is to FPSers, just good old mindless fun! And btw, playing this game on a decent sound system (5/7.1) sure does rock! The game always had awesome sound, but on a modern setup it's phenomenal.
PS: It is certainly much more playable on SNES, controls are easier, framerate is better and you can get some really nice graphics filtering with ZSNES. |

Besides, how cool is it to fire behind you: Hasta la vista, baby! |

Indeed - the "fire-behind-you" feature is one of those things that charactarise the game - it acutally doesn't make much sense, it isn't necessary at all - but it is great fun, and look good too

I cant get this damn thing to work. I dragged it to a dos box and it said cannot find the dot.dat file.
I played it on the snes and thought it was the coolest game ever. |

Wait. Do you mean DosBox emulator?
Did you try running DosBox first and then the game? Note - there are frontends, like DFEND, that allow you to simplify the process and store separate settings for different games. Useful if you have problems with the "raw" DosBox. |
