Default stuck ships too

I also discovered this (in one of the D-Fend packs) loved it, and nearly finished the day I started . . . until pathing failure messed up Ep3.

I have ships "vibrating" in place like a few others have reported, but in every mission of ep3. thus I can't pass level 5, which requires the truck you're escorting to actually move. moving past enemies sometimes frees them up for a bit, but never more than once, so I can't get them back to the truck, and I don't think they evade anyway . . .

Several people have reported DOSBox fixing the issue - what did you do? I tried cranking the speed way down as well as increasing it, to no avail; the first two work, and this is the D-Fend pre-configured setup . . .

any thoughts? :-/
I really don't want to hack the saves to skip every escort mission if I can avoid it, and in any case, the story's a lot less interesting when the levels are boring

Thanks!

Please upload the copy of the game in question with the config it's using.

Oh, right, oops!

I've included the save file, but it happens in *every* level, new games or old.

It's the default install from the D-Fend Reloaded DemoPackage3, launched by D-Fend Reloaded 1.0.1
( http://dfendreloaded.sourceforge.net/Download.html )
-> specifically, the included version is the creative commons release, which is available by itself here:
http://www.classicdosgames.com/game/...ment_2192.html

I hash-checked it and all the game files are the same (except the saves of course), although the classicdosgames one lacks the [included] TD.CFG [my settings are soundblaster music and SFX, keyboard control].

All three td2192 games share the [included] D-Fend .prof profile (and the other two work flawlessly).

Thanks!

I'm having a different problem with TD2192: The game starts and plays the intro scene, complete with voices. But when it's time for the game or menu or whatever comes after the intro credits, the game just hangs.

I've got an actual DOS computer for the task. P1 233ish, 160 MB RAM. Any ideas/thoughts?

It's definitely not caused by your saves, or the version of the game you've got. Will check D-Fend, that's one of three likely culprits (second being DOSBox, third being your machine).

I'd say you're overspecced. It ran on 100 mHz 486 (and possibly slower systems too), with 16 MB RAM. Take out 128 MB of your RAM and try again.
