Some are more useful than others, like for example the soul of Earth Atronach which gives a non-stackable (with other items with same property) protection of +3 to every body spot on one item AND additional weight, add Feather Weight option before adding that soul and reduced weight of Feather Weight remains. The souls of Elder Daedra (don't remember if the name is correct) also give a huge bonus, 2500 I think but also a number of negative effects like damage in holy places.

I am level 22 with 789 hitpoints, 250% hth, 250% critical strike, 250% dodging, etc... You can easily ruin the game balance with the item maker. |

Daggerfall
When I downloaded this game last year it took you to a different website where you were able to download. Now it's right here on Abandonia. The website I was taken to had detailed instructions on how to get Daggerfall working with a CD mount.
Now it looks like that website is gone. Someone here posted a link to instructions and all I get was a '404' message. When previously I was able to go there and follow the instructions. This CD Mount command I was using worked on another game that needed it. Today I can't get anything to work and that is because I was stupid enough to lose the instructions to get Daggerfall to work. The other game I got to work (that I bought ages ago) fails to run also. I find that the website no longer exists. Once I get some simple commands I'll be able to refresh my memory. |

Hi Guest13, good news:
- There game is now far easier to run than with the original instructions. Just read the download and review webpage under - The original instructions are still available as an extra download at the top of the same webpage. But really they're unnecessarily complicated. Here they are: http://www.abandonia.com/files/extra...l%20extras.zip

Did your archive change? Seems like it's messed up. There are a ton of files missing from your \arena2 directory compared to the \arena2 directory on the iso. Also, I'm having missing file issues when I play (113's). Coincidence? Yes, I do understand that occasional 113's are normal for this game, but for me they start as soon as I get out of the starter dungeon and receive a message in my pack that's supposed to warn me that I have lycanthropy.
That's another wierd thing: I've restarted with new characters 3 times now, and ***every time*** I've gotten the lycanthropy quest as soon as the first time I hit "W" to go to daggerfall. This last start I gave myself disease resistance and was careful with my fights (and save/restores) so that I took not one single point of damage from any bat, rat, bear, skel, human, imp, nor that lonely orc. Where am I picking this disease up from??? The last wierd thing is that I get the 113's when I click in my inventory to read the message telling me that I have lycanthropy. You might well ask how I know what the message says, if it crashes the game when I click it. Well, it turns out that if I restore and try it again about 10 times, one of those times will let me read the message. Which seems like another impossibility to me: I mean if the file is there for me to see, ever, then it should always be there. And if I find it once, it shouldn't disappear (and then come back once in a while). And yess, I did try the fixsave program which is supposed to help with some of the 113s. No joy. I'm tempted to copy the arena directory from the iso over the one created by your archive, to replace the missing files. But you warn me that the iso is an unpatched version. Not sure how to procede. |

Did you follow in the instructions below the review?
It's normal that there are tons of files on the CD not on the HD, the installation is minimal, and everything else would be duplicated (since the CD is already in an image file on the HD). Better than copying files by hand, you can try erasing and re-installing from the CD (ISO). You can then patch it to the latest version by downloading the "extras from the Bethesda release" (link at the top of the review, to the right of the main download link) and running the patcher in it.

To the extent that I could, I did. Drag&drop did not work for me because it does a:
"mount c "c:\users\danny\desktop", which does not make any sense, and does not work. I'm not sure where the shortcuts have to be and/or where dosbox has to be to make it work. Instead, I: 1. manually launch dosbox, 2. "mount c c:\dagger", 3. "c:", and 4. "dosbox". I think this is equivalent to what your drag&drop accomplishes when it works. If not, let me know. Quote:

Main problem with installing DF from CD is issue in DOSBox itself: it cannot recognize label of disc, so if you made "clean" install, it will say "no CD". But as this issue can be avoided with no-cd install, well, I cannot remember anything else. Simply made "full install", apply patch (still with "CD" in DOSBox), made game no-cd, and play! At least, it worked for my my last three installs of it.
