Well, the idea behind the question was if it is possible, and worth it. It is possible, but hardly seems worth it, sadly. In Arena it was quite fun, although I passed the same farm several times in an hour, but back then it was teh sh*t. In Morrowind and Oblivion, I had a lot of fun visiting the whole locale, I even posed with the character at scenic locations, and made loads of screenshots Still, I am very happy that Daggerfall is free now, so I can reemerge into this fine piece of game (however bugridden it may be)

In Arena you can travel the countryside finding entrances to dungeons (you can ask passers by where's the nearest one, best honest way to make cash, and experience), and return to the town you came out from, but you won't arrive at any other town no matter how long you walk--according to the manual.

If you're running it in DOSBox there aren't many variables, it should work, changing the emulated memory from the default 16 to 32 MB, according to the instructions. It works for most people with dagger.exe. Are you using a frontend? Try 0.73, that's what I'm using. Also try re-downloading, it's not common but you could perfectly have a corrupt file.

I tried Dosbox 0.73 and I downloaded the game so many times. i followed the instructions exactly and no avail. In 0.73 it starts to work ok but if I close dosbox after i Quit the game and I start it up later it causes me that error. I guess its too buggy for my system. Too bad. If that guy on the forum finishes that other emulator then I'll download it again. Life is too short for extremely buggy games.

Did you install it in c:\dagger? Did you set the memory in dosbox.conf to 32?
I myself use 64, because of Battlespire, but 32 should be the minimum for Daggerfall. Also you could try strating it with "fall z.cfg" instead of the dagger.exe

However, the walking in Daggerfall seems to be a tedious and long task.

Haha I'm glad my memory isn't that bad .

I tried everything, did all the memory and stuff on Dosbox. I also did fall.exe z.cfg and still got the error. It works for a little while after I installed it but when I try to start it up later it gives me that error.

Well I attached my .conf file, maybe it helps. You should of course change the mount directories accordingly. Anyway, I don't really wanna derail this thread, troubleshooting should go into the troubleshooting section :thumbs:

Have you tried installing it with this tutorial or which one?

[catchaserguns]

I tried several different tutorials including the ones you mentioned and my configure file was simular. I will not stress over a game that doesn't want to work. There are too many games to play to waste time on this one.

Are you guys still looking for a reviewer?
