That's the website I was using for instructions. I've followed every instruction and now I don't know how to actually run the game I just installed. Can anybody help me?
Downloaded Daggerfall and need help getting it to run.
Did you do this part? This is how I get the game to start up.Now open the dosbox.conf file which is where you installed DOSBox and do the following changes:
memsize=16 should be changed to 40. The game uses about 32-34 or so, but it's good to have a safety margin.
core=auto should be work just fine as the dynamic core is rather mature now. However, if you run with the dynamic core on a fast computer you should limit the amount of cycles cause I've seen the jitterbug otherwise. If you stumble upon any problem, then go to the normal core.
cycles=max runs just fine. If you want to run at some specific cycles I would recommend about 20000 - 30000. You should cap it there somewhere if you use the auto/dynamic core with cycles=auto limit 30000.
Then go to the bottom where it says "# Lines in this section will be run at startup." and add the following lines:
MOUNT C GAMES
C:
CD DAGGER
FALL.EXE Z.CFG
Save the config file as Daggerfall.conf and you're done with that.
I eventually got it to work using these instructions.
Make a shortcut for DOSbox. Click "properties" In the "target" area, you will notice that there is a line of text that says dosbox.conf. Replace that with Daggerfall.conf." @ArbitraryWater: Could you tell me what to do with the .conf file??? "
