Golden Axe

Post by elicbelic »

Hi i need help in Golden axe (1990 i think).
when u play the "Dual" (on the bridge), after few rounds u r asked "insert disk 2 and press enter". i downloaded the game from many different web sites but i couldn't find a version that include disk 2 so i would be able to continue the game.
Can someone help me with that??????

thanks!!!!! :)

and third of all: try using DOSBox mount a: with the game's directory B)

That's just how it is in the DOS version. There is no way around it.

Well, I haven't posted on these forums for over 5 years. :)

And what is a better way to come back than to resurrect a 5+ year thread with some new relevant information. :D

Apparently, one clever person reverse-engineered the DOS version of Golden Axe, found the bug that leads to the "Insert Disk 2" in Duel mode and fixed it!

The instructions are here:

I tried it and it worked like a charm.

I think this should be more appropriate in the Get Games to Work section.

I'm sorry but Golden Axe, to the best of my knowledge, is not a freeware game.

And being an arcade license still being leveraged and generating cashflow in new console games and official emulators, never will be in our lifetimes!
