ah that error. RIght I guess you are stuck with the runtime error.. well if dosbox doesnt work

there is a program that may fix it.. Its called Tppatch... http://www.qmw.ac.uk/~ugah006/gotools/tppatch.html

Yes its for go tools but its the same thing...
Then I suggest using VDM sound after fixing it.

any more enquirys I would be more than happy to meet you in my java intergrated chatwww.dosgames.com/~wally4000/chat.htm

OK, but the game is too big to send by e-mail, please download it here.
{Link removed. It's a full version warez/abandonware, so it can't be posted.}
There are too many users access that ftp. So you may need to try several times to download it.
Thank you.

Okay, is that a full version or demo? I can't even download it to see. If it's full, it's going to have to go.

It's full version. But I don't know why Dosbox can not run it. :blah:

maybe dosbox has released a patch for this..

Wait.. you need dosbox .61 for this to work

http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/comp_list ... &search=ty
15000 cycles should do the job

Well, that link has to go. T2k isn't shareware. But the link's not going before I copy it, though.

Oh, my dosbox is 0.60. Maybe that's the problem. Thank you.

What, the link to the ftp file that's a .zip? That's a full version man, and I thank thee kindly for the link, KOA. That's most certainly not a help link, considering that KOA's doing the linking, not you. Wallster.
