Re: Larry 6 - Shape Up or Slip Out
 

One of my favorite games, I Actually Got Kicked out of the computer lab in college once for playing it.

I have a little problems with getting the game to start,:cry:, so I could use some help

:oops: I have forgoten to tell you my system configuration
Windows 98 Plus, 64 Mb ram, Pentium 3 450 MH,GPU Intel i 810 4 Mb,

Try to run it in pure Dos - exit Windows 98 and start Ms-Dos mode.

Trouble
 

first, I want to say I really like this game a lot, I wish they made more LSL games. I already posted this in the troubleshooting section, but I haven't gotten a response yet, so maybe people here will help me. I have a lot of trouble with this game freezing up when I enter certain doors, turn the faucet on in my room, or begin the cut scenes with each girl. The first two problems I've been able to get past by saving and reloading, but the last one involving the cut scenes I can't get past. I mean I can skip the whole scene, but that defeats a lot of the humor in this game. If anyone knows how to fix this, or of an existing patch, let me know, thanks,

Where do you play it? DOSbox or Windows?

Are you playing the game on an old comp?

That doesn't mean anything, I played the game long ago on my old PC too, it was 486DX2 66Mhz with 48 MB RAM, but the game ran flawlessly.
But if he plays the game in DosBox, he most certainly needs at least P4 with 2 Ghz, as the game uses high-resolution mode and also uses Dos-extender to run (which needs more system power than games that doesn't run in extended mode).

I'm playing the game on a very new computer but I'm using a really god load program called abandon loader. I don't know if you've heard of it, it works really well with all DOS programs. I guess I'm not the only person who has had trouble with this game as well, I read that people on other websites had the same problem, so I'm assuming it has something to do with the game itself. Not the specific one you have on this site, all of them. I think it may need a patch or something. Hope that makes sense, :)

Try DosBox, perhaps that solves the problem. :wink:
