Is Wizardry 6 available anywhere? Would love to get my hands on it and try it out!

Hello. I was just passing by and noticed this post, so I took it as a personal challenge to find it on a night that I had nothing better to do. It took me a few minutes, but I finally found a place:

http://www.oldware.net/index-page_inc-Info...JnZQ%3D%3D.html

This should take you right to Wizardry 6. If it doesn't for some reason, go to www.oldware.net, click on Liste de jeux (it's a French website), and click on page 69.

hey, i still haven't figured how how exactly to get the whole system to work
i've

1. mounted the WIZARDRY cd as drive d:
2. run install.exe from msdos (only 2 files installed, pcfile and scenario?)
3. mounted drive d in dosbox
4. tried to run wizardry.bat in dosbox


i get the error message
"unable to open scenario.hdr"


can anybody help with this?
thanks

I have the same exact problem as described. Unfortunately I cannot figure out how to fix the problem. I believe that it may have something to do with the files being read-only. However, when I try to change that, it prompts access is denied.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

dosbox.conf

[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.
mount c C:\oldgames
mount D D:\ -t cdrom
C:

run daemon tools
use the iso image
do a direct copy of all the files to a dir on your hd
Maybe you should turn off read only but not sure if this did anything
go into dosbox
go into the game dir and install D
then run wizardry

worked for me

Still cant save though whatever dir i use, insert SAVE DISK

Hi, Im SisterPrincessMania from Japan! k:

CSD, it's great, 've played on Sega-Saturn, Playstation and PC-98.
So, for me, it will be the first time I play English-CSD.

Well, I installed CSD sucessfully and created some Characters so on, but!!!
Copy-Protection is the problem, yeah, yeah.... .

Can somebody upload English-Manual, please?

I am having problems getting Wizardry 6 to save. I have not tries Wizardry 7 yet. Can anyone help me? Thanks

With regards to the copy protection, you should find a file included in the installation which will give you the words you need to start the game (look for PASSWRDS.TXT). So, you needn't bother scouring the net for the original manual in its entirety.

However, I would personally suggest going here:
http://retro.icequake.net/dob/

...and nabbing Rawcopy. That'll remove this antiquated piece of copy protection so that you won't have to look up a word every time you start the game. It took me 2 years to finish Crusaders of the Dark Savant. That's one year per floppy! ...and now I'm playing around with Bane of the Cosmic Forge (thanks for the link, man!)

hmmm. I get Divide Overflow message when I try to start the thing

nevermind.

for future reference: moslo solves the "overflow" message.

Or just playing the game in DosBox.
