Thanks MM - I have the original disks - would it be helpful to shoot a copy over to the developers? Since it is the original game, it is not crack and I do not have a crack lying around. The version I use is somewhere I downloaded (cracked), may be from HOTU but not sure. Also another bug for …

MM - yes it is normal. In fact, I have tried all other settings (full dynamic simple) and all of them exhibit the same problem as described. Any suggestions? Gates

Hi - I further tested this out and it seems it is a version 0.7 problem. V0.65 allows for load and save in a limited way, v0.7 can not even get into the save menu and crash after 5 to 10 min of play (where it will get stuck). I use VDMS as the baseline for comparison where you can: 1. get into the …

Hello, I got it - Red Avatar is right about the MERC AMS file. However, I don't think it has to do with the subdir. I am mounting it on my e drive (usb drive) with sub dir and run the MERC file (with command line as AMS as the switch). Thanks again for your help! ~Gates

Sorry to bump this thread up. I am really looking forward to play this in Dosbox! Any insights as to how I might be able to run this with sound? HN has one of the better music out there back in 1990. Thanks in advance! Gates

Finally I was able to run this gem in Dosbox v.65 but there is no sound! I tried many configuration but it still does not work. PS - I know it works in the native XP mode with VDMSound but I would like to get it to work in Dosbox because it appears the mouse is less jerky and it looks less pixelated …
