Subject: New PC MM game? - GOT IT 2 WORK...
Coo! How long is it since I;ve posted or visited
this wonderful club? Too long I tell
you..
Anyway, got the game to work. It WONT work through a DOS
shell or just by running it in widows as the system
just hangs. You have to drop to DOS completely and
then run the relevent .EXE file...
Its worth
looking at, although I must admit the monochrome colours
are surprising, the monsters are quite cool in their
own way and the controls (and Willys jumping!) have a
lot to be desired for!
Hope that helps some of
you...
BTW: my system is running Win98se although I have also
tested it and got it to work on 95, 3.x and Me (with the
real DOS mde patch available from the web). Dunno
about 2k (couldnt be bothered to test that one!) or
NT
