[RIGHT-CLICK ON EXECUTABLE]-->[PROPERTIES]-->[COMPATIBILITY]
From the drop-box there, select [WINDOWS 98]. Easy, that.

Posting email adresses in open is not allowed on Abandonia.

Furthermore, what you are offering is basically selling illegal copies of both games, ergo WAREZ.

Feel yourself most unwelcome on here from now on.

The game is ESA-protected and Abandonia is not allowed to host it.

Youre going to have to look from somewhere else, pal.

Connection problems caused by a DDOS attack on our hosting provider. <_<
There is nothing we can do, solving the issues is entirely up to the provider.
It should be solved in a few days.

Alright, potentially stupid question.

What do the express settings for the elevators actually do? I can't tell much of a difference between any of the settings thus far.

.....I find it worth mentioning that I'm not actually playing the original simtower (yet), but the GBA version, which appears to be a condensed version. (For example, the subway runs at about 6 below ground, and the chapel goes on the 60th floor if I recall correctly.) Shouldn't be too much of a difference of game mechanics, I'd think.

Great, downloaded the game, got a problem. Won't install.

Downloaded it again from another site. Same problem.


And yes, I read back through the earlier posts. While my problem was briefly mentioned, the question went unresolved.

My problem is (regardless of compatibility setting I've set it to) when I run the installer I get an error message entitled "Application: DSHELL" that says "The Win 16 Subsystem has insufficent resources to continue running."

What the hell?

Also, after getting this error (which seems to randomly pop up during the installation process, assuming it doesn't hit right off the bat) it won't let me try running setup again, as I get an error stating that another setup is running. I have to ctrl-alt-del and get rid of a process entitled "ntvdm.exe" just to try again.


In before someone suggests dosbox for a windows program again. (which won't help, as I've tried, and it says it's a windows program.)

Right-click on the executable. [PROPERTIES]-->[COMPATIBILITY]. Check Windows 95. Should do the trick.
