this one nearly worked, well it worked a little bit. the intro started (or i think that its part of the intro, as its onl one or two seconds), but than dosbox said: an error occured please examine the file error.log thank you for playing albion when i try to open error.log in the windows explorer it says that it cant find the file (but i can see it) and even if i use the windows search whatever and it finds the file and i try to open it it says cant find the file... i also tryed to type "main" instead of "albion" to start the game but with the same mistake as result. typing "albilow" also produces a mistake. trying to type "dos4gw" produces a fatal error without even starting a little bit of the intro or anything. When i type "setup" the setup workes, means i can install the sound and stuff, but i cant start the game from there. When i finally managed to open the error.log file, well here is what it says: **** Error log **** Albion v1.38 (created on Jul 25 1996 12:39:09) Executed on Sun Nov 6 00:50:52 2005 BBERROR: ERRORSTACK START:-------------- BBDOS Library: DOS_setcurrentdir: unknown error - FILENAME: D:\ALBION\ALBION\CD\ALBION - DATA: 0 - OSERROR: 1 Xload: File does not exist. (Name : Slab) Albion: File access error. (line 679 of file g:\albion\src\game.c) BBERROR: ERRORSTACK END----------------- Please read the README.TXT file to find out how to contact the Blue Byte hotline. I realllllllly hope that someone can help me make albion run on my computer because you know, i love this game. Sooooo if anybody knows what the error message means and what i should do to prevent it, please let me know. WEll i reallly hope somebody can help me to find a solution! thanks for your attention  daniel |

I downloaded Albion and installed it on C:\Albion than i started the dosbox and wrote: mount c c:\Albion next i wrote mount d d:\ -t cdrom (but i also tryed the other things with usecd...) than i wrot albion and pressed enter. The dosbox says than: Please insert the Albion cd in your cd-rom drive I hope you can help me because I love albion, its an amazing game but my original cd is scratched and does not work anymore. I was so happy to find albion on your page and would rather walk naked through the cithy than to give up albion so if anybody has any idea, something that could help me, something that im doing wrong, please let me know. If i find out how to make it work, ill post it here of course! Thanks Daniel |

I had the same problem as you at first. I'm not sure how I fixed it, and can't check right now because I'm at uni, but... I think the solution is to put any cd in the drive and it detects it. I think. |

Hi I downloaded DOSbox then albion and followed the instructions for Dosbox that were on the site to the letter. I put my albion files in the Cdrive file inside the DO file in C: after I had extracted em and everything then I went into dosbox and tried to install it (again using the instructions on the site) When I get to inputting the 'install' command it begins to load bup but then tells me I need the cd in the drive. I have done the mounting thing in the Dosbox.conf file so whats up? I use Windows XP also; I tried loading it w/o Dosbox and it crashed the computer  LOL....so any help at all would be very much appreciated as I hear it is a fantastic game! |
