Hi, I've done a search but couldn't find any tips for running the install utility available on Darklands Domain. I've got an early version of darklands...
The simplest method is to just install it onto a PC, then burn the installed directory to CD. Since it's a DOS game, Darklands doesn't really care where it has...
Is Darklands abandon ware yet? I cant find any retailers, and my disc has long since disappeared (havent been able to run it since 2 machines ago anyway). If...
Nope. Not abondonware, and may never be. Infogrames (Atari) has indicated, when they respond at all, that they are not relinquishing rights to any of their...
Thanks mwirkk! I would love to bump up the graphics portion of the game, I think the concept really kicked some bum. But if its not abandon-ware, Im not ...
I just got a copy of the Darklands cd and read through some of the information here on getting the game to run on XP using DOSBox, but I can't get the thing to...
Are you mounting the CD and running the DARKLAND.EXE from there? Or is this the darkland.exe that you have left on the HDD after first attempting a run of the...
I suggest you try re-installing the game as the file banner.dat should reside in your main darklands directory. If you still have this problem email me and i...
... It does sound a lot like a corrupted install, as that's one of the startup files. Interesting: I hadn't looked at that file much before, but there's a...
Merle re the little menu...spent three days playing with that about 97 when changing over computers from 386 to "super fast 486"...never did get things to...
... It sounds like this is a menu that would let the developers skip directly to a battle with option 1, or to the normal "role-playing" mode with option 2. At...
Hi to all, I have a couple of questions regarding the game play: 1. How can I scroll on the battle screen? 2. Is there any way to avoid the appearing test ...
From: Allan Mills; Mon, July 10, 2006 3:30 PM ... <snip> ... <snip> [mwirkk] And your next question will be "how do I make it stop?!" ;) ... [mwirkk] Nope,...
... If you look in the files section of the Darklands Yahoo group: http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/darklands/files/ and then inside "Quadko's Files", you...
... Well -- not a *great* bug fix. Mine went for several years without it asking, then suddenly it was asking once an hour for about a month, then stopped....
... There was also that problem a couple of years ago with the version of DosBox that was causing various Darklands events to get lost. Among other things it...
... Sounds lovely. I still wish I knew where the "I've passed copy protection" bit is stored. Never did find evidence of it in the saved games, and aside...
... I think we have two separate bugs here. There is definitely a logic bug relating to quest rewards from the town hall. The lost events bug with an old...
... Good point. I had forgotten about that horrible DOSBox bug. It was an odd bug, too, unless DL was using a bizarre way of updating event data on the hard...
Hello, all! Found this enjoyable game at www.abandonia.com I've been playing it everyday for a week and a half or so. Lots of fun, very realistic. I took the...
... It can be a long hunt at times. One game, I was over eight game-years into it before I found the Essence of Grace formula, even though I had been to every...
Now I feel silly. The next place I came to, Ulm, had everything I needed. Now I've got Eyeburn and Stone-tar. Sweet. I vanquished an evil lord and the...
Yes, they do. Like all "bad guys" they get progressively harder and more numerous as your party gets tougher and more skilled. I remember going up against...
... Stone tar works really well in combat when combined with archers. ... Heh heh. Whenever I end up with loads of florins and a feeling of invincibility I...
Hey now, I didn't say I felt invincible. This is a pretty realistic game, and I still have found any nice healing saints or whatnot. A few lucky shots from...
...Like Might and Magic II. Went through loads of spellcasters and characters in general before some "stuck". I've had a couple fatalities, but not with any ...
... Hmm.. must be a difference in how we play. I've never had a big problem with alchemists dying. They get wounded more easily, but that's it. Then again, I...
