# fulldouble - Use double buffering in fullscreen. # fullscreen - Start dosbox directly in fullscreen. # They are used to (briefly) document the effect of each option. # Lines starting with a # are commentlines. # This is the configurationfile for DOSBox 0.72. I didn't expect to waste the whole evening doing this. I wish I could have had it running well by now. You don't have to get back to me right away or anything, I'm getting some sleep now. Sierra games for instance hardcode the paths in the config files and if you do not mount the proper hierarchy they will crap out. Note this is how most games work, I do not own Skynet so I have no clue if you've edited the DAT file or if it's set by the install. This way it will be able to locate the proper folder from the root of the C:\ drive. Maybe try mounting "C:\GAMES" as the C:\ drive and then cd into SKYNET and run SKYNET.EXE. Was this how it was when you installed it? I ask because if you installed outside of dosbox then that means it is looking for the "SKYNET" folder but cannot find it on the path you mounted. I've been searching and troubleshooting all day and I've noticed that there is barely any concrete info on how to get this game working, and lots of people saying "nevermind, I got it working" (GAH! Tell me how! Give some info!)ĭid you install the game with that path mounted? The game sees "C:\GAMES\SKYNET" as the C:\ drive. Also the briefing screen takes a while to load, about 10 seconds, but I don't know if that's relevant. When it's set to "normal" though I can make it to the first game loading screen, where it either freezes, or takes longer than 30 minutes to load (I only waited 30 minutes). Now I need to change the cpu to normal because the default setting "dynamic" crashes or stalls the game at the menu screen without fail.

Here's what I've got: (and this is using a retail disk, installed to C:\GAMES\SKYNET)ĭrive C is mounted as local directory C:\GAMES\SKYNET
