In order to make your stats as good as his you need to find the editor. For some reason or another I can't put it on my forum, so you will have to go out and find it for yourself. If you make your own editor I would like to know

I used to own this game back in the day and LOVED it! When I found it on an abandonware site, I was thrilled. But since I don't have the manual anymore, I was constantly searching through the text files to find the answers to the security questions (ex. "On page 13, what is the fifth word after the heading CHARACTER CLASSES"). Looking up that kind of stuff in a text editor takes forever because the page numbers in the text file don't correspond to the page numbers of the original manual. I got sick of it so I wrote a simple program to instantly display any page number. You type in 10, it instantly jumps to page 10 in the manual. As a second though, I added another option to instantly look up any journal entry. I include the source code if anyone cares.

BTW, how can I change the sound settings? PC Speaker sounds are horrible. And if I try to use install.exe, it doesn't work (can't write files). What to do?
I found it!

The path for installation should only be c:\ and nothing more!
The other way to fix that (and for all chapters of Krynn) is to change the directory in .config file. Using notepad then add the directory C:\ will help you start this game easier by draging START.exe to dosbox directry and will fix any problem occuring from wrong location...

No need to type "mount" any more

I just downloaded this game, but it doesn't seem to be working. There doesn't seem to be much activity on the board right now, so I'll keep muddling by myself meanwhile.

The game is installed in D:\Program Files\Games\Dark Queen of Krynn. Whenever I try to change any settings, I can't. I wanted to set it to anything other than PC speaker, but it's a no-go. Apparently, it needs to reinstall itself for that. So...

I put the files from the DISK folders from the zip file onto a trio of floppy disks, mounted both d: and a: in DOSBOX and tried it again, but it said the disk wasn't the right one...

I have no doubt that someone will correct me by pointing out something obvious that I missed, and as embarassing as that is, I will still be very greatful for it! This game looks good and I want to play it, but so far no luck...

This is what you should do with Dos-box

Ok, make a folder and copy both floppies to it. Now, mount this as your A: drive.

Install it to someplace with a really short name, like C:/oldgames/DQK.

Now, just run it in dos-box. Should work just fine.
