EcoQuest I Error 4
Im currently trying to complete this game with the full 725 points but im running into a problem. (im currently at 341 of 725 points) and Im playing under dosbox 0.72. Whenever I try to enter the other apartments the game gives this error saying Oops "You did something that we werent expecting. Whatever it was you dont need to do it to finish the game. Try taking a different approach to the situation."Error 4 then it gives an Sci version number. Any Ideas on what this even means. I never gotten this error message before. Im playing the Cd-rom version of the game.

Sounds like a game specific error, but I have no way to make sure. I am guessing it happen only at a specific moment in the game.
Are you sure one of your files is not corrupted or missing in some way? If you know how to save your savegames or maybe if there is a save folder then you could try reinstalling the game. |

As far as I am concerned, it might be something which was actually intended to happen. Games don't usualy have "funny" error codes when a game crash or bug...
Is it the first time you try to enter that room in the game? |

Try slowing down DOSBox, I recall some mention of crashes related to game speed.
