Hello guys,
I have just downloaded Albion, then I installed it. When I hit .exe of it, it gave me a info(in console) that I have to put CD of the game inside. So I downloaded DosBox and installed it just as it is said in tutorial. When I digged to game file(well it took some time ), the pop up was the same. I know there is a way to make my PC think that CD with information(guess cd is what was included in download, the CD folder with autorun and things in it) is inside and this can be probably made up using DosBox, so my question is: how can I do a fake CD using DosBox(step by step instruction or some link would be very helpful)? I didn't know what words to search too . My sys is xp of course :/. I'd be very if you help me(you've probably noticed that I am not a smartass in matters like it :P) With kind regards, galarion |

Hmm.. Have you mounted a CDROM drive to DOSBox?
Do it by typing in: mount d d:\ -t cdrom That might work. |

I ran Albion fine without mounting a cd (fake or otherwise) and the sound works perfectly. I just downloaded and unzipped Albion somewhere, opened DOSBox and typed:
mount c c:\albion_path c: launch If the sound doesn't work run the setup.exe file and keep fiddling with the sound settings until one works. |

You can't go wrong with DOSBox if you go the SoundBlaster route.

Sorry, I'm a complete DOSbox noob with the same "Need CD" problem. Could I get a, er, "walkthrough" of the commands I'm supposed to input?

Actually, I did a search and only came up with two results for Albion. What keyword should I use?
