Frodo It's appearing now, but it didn't before.

Luchsen I checked it and it's still there. I didn't hack your photobucket account.

Frodo You're very welcome Punisher. Glad I could help. :thumbs:

Hope you enjoy the game. Now, go catch that Phantom.



Luchsen, you deleted my screenshot.
23-08-2009 09:02 PM
Luchsen That's what I meant. You have to mount the game directory Return Of The Phantom and not the subdirectory PHANTOM. Otherwise the game cannot access the other subdirectory RESOURCE.

punisherzzz Wow!!!!! Frodo my man, I must admit: you sir are a genius!
This really worked surprisingly well (like often before, easy when you know how!).

Thank you very much for your detailed help!
And now if you'll excuse me - I have a phantom to catch!



May peace be upon you

Frodo Punisher, you don't have to mess with DosBox settings. Just try what I suggested

EDIT
Screenshot Guide

Switched from IMG to URL tags because of the picture's large dimensions. ~Luchsen

1. This is the file you downloaded and unzipped.

2. This is the second folder, inside the first one. Click and hold on this folder.

3. Drag the folder over to the DosBox icon.

Drag this second folder (the whole folder) onto DosBox icon.

Now type 'cd phantom' to enter the Phantom folder.

Now just type in 'Phantom'.


Let me know if that helps.
Yes, after the unzipping there is another folder with that name. But what do you mean with dragging onto the Dosbox icon?

It looks like that:

G:\Spiele\Dosgames\Rotp\Return Of The Phantom\PHANTOM

the last folder is the one where the "phantom.bat" file is.
