Re: KQ6 crashing problem on DOSBox

Well, something finally occurred to me, that there's a second dosboxkq6.conf file with a "_single" added to the name so I punched that in and sure enough it popped open. I'm going to try a run now and see what happens, if you want to come watch, I'm streaming at http://www.twitch.tv/sambrea

I've got

"C:\GOG Games\Kings Quest 4-5-6\DOSBox\DOSBox.exe" -conf dosboxKQ6.conf -noconsole

now but it's still coming up with the prompt. My start line is

Re: KQ6 crashing problem on DOSBox

Ok, so here's the really weird thing, I didn't modify the shortcut at all from what Gog gave me so I don't know where that long string came from. Now I plugged in "C:\GOG Games\Kings Quest 4-5-6\DOSBox\DOSBox.exe" -conf "..\King's Quest 6\dosboxKQ6.conf" -noconsole to the line and came up with a com...

Re: KQ6 crashing problem on DOSBox

ok, if you can't tell, I have no experience with this stuff so I have no clue what I'm doing. I didn't modify the shortcut, that's the way it came to me, honest! I'll try the shortcut in the top box and see what happens, if it doesn't work I'll be back to try and figure this stuff out.

Re: KQ6 crashing problem on DOSBox

Wow, so here's the whole line for starting King's Quest 6 in properties, do I replace the whole thing with what you gave me or does there need to be more? "C:\GOG Games\Kings Quest 4-5-6\DOSBox\DOSBox.exe" -conf "..\King's Quest 6\dosboxKQ6.conf" -conf "..\King's Quest 6\dosboxKQ6_single.conf" -noco...

Re: KQ6 crashing problem on DOSBox

I did like you said and installed the new version but when I click on the icon to play the game it doesn't load, it just shows the DOSBox screen and that's it.
