Default Discworld Game Saves

Hey all, I'm having a problem saving games. I've got DOSBOX installed with no problems. Discworld plays fine (I loaded it off my original CD-ROM). But, I can't save games. I saw one post about moving DOSBOX to the same folder as discworld. That doesn't seem to work.

Any ideas?

When I installed the game from the CD, it created a Save folder.

Thanks Paco.

I solved the problem and can now save, so hope the following helps.

The Technical Note has a spelling error - the folder should be "DISCWLD", not "DISKWLD"

Suggest that someone correct the Technical Note accordingly.

Have some happy gaming ahead...

Oh, and obviously you run "disc.bat", as there is no "disk.bat" as stated on Tech Note...

Cheers

Creating a new "SAVE" folder does not work for me. I am using the VDMSound or whatever the name is. And how do I change the cycle with that program, Discworld runs a little slow.

I have also created a 'save' folder, and I still cannot save it.
