Though that HOTU version seems to be missing the english.smp file and such. :/ I couldn't get it to work...

Can't get it to work. First it went black and said ENGLISH.IDX is missing. So I stole that from the AB version. It went black and said ENGLISH.SMP is missing, like Guest mentioned. Now what do I do?

For that matter... Whilst I CAN get this version to work (with music), it won't save! (even though I did what the instructions said.)

Listen up. The file limit for games on this site is 75 mbs. The HOTU version of Discworld exceeds that limit. If you want the HOTU version of discworld, go to HOTU. But stop complaining about it here. brain_viking.gif


As far as saving, have you actually pressed F1 and clicked save? Or will it not save period? I'll try to see if I can figure out where my instructions go wrong.

I'm a fan of Discworld novels but i remember this game being hard as hell with a lot of obscure puzzles.

While my euphoric craziness was very pleasurable, it was also short-lived, ending in extreme frustration when VDMsound failed to deliver the goods :ranting: . Others seem to have had this problem, so if anyone has any ideas as to how to fix this frustrating error it would be much appreciated

EDIT: Whoops, had a n00b moment then. I forgot to check the write-up . Problem is i tried changing the custom settings and that didn't help either :angry: . More help please

You have to download the Decoder fix, "DECODE.EXE file in download zip must be replaced with file from Decoder fix (download above). Then run UNPACK.BAT. Read README.TXT file if you are using anything higher than Windows 95."

The game didn't work for me until I noticed that at the bottom of the page, after doing what it said the game was fine and I have been enjoying it so much. I remember the first time I saw this game, there was a documentary on the TV before "Wyrd Sisters" the animated version was on, then a few years later a friend of mine had it on his computer, it was awesome, and even more years later I got the chance to play it at home, and I wasn't disappointed, just confused as the puzzles are so wacky. I reckon this is one of the best games I have ever played.
