Thumbs up

i am completely lost when it comes to getting this game to run. my friends have told me its fun. ive tried dos box alone and in sync with deaomon or how ever u say it. ive looked at numerous website to try and help me none of them have worked. when i run vinstall.exe it says please insert disk into drive a. to fix this i got d-fend to help me mount a drive as a floppy still got same response. when i looked at this forum i noticed a guy saying i need deamon so i got that. i dont have an iso with my wizardry 7 file it just have the discs contents i have checked all my preograms nothing opens iso up automatically so its not that also someone spoke of a plain install.exe that i also do not have.

can some tell me where i can download the iso of wiz or one with its complete contents ive downloaded it from numerous places same file plz hlp...

If im just being retarded plz tell me what im doin wrong and be detailed to make it easier

Run the game's internal sound configuration utility. Make sure the values you input match those in DosBox.conf (default= Sound Blaster 16 at adress 220h, IRQ 7, DMA 1).

Usually, the matter is about directory usage.

First you should be able to intall the game. I suggest that you copy the wizardry7 directory on your root (i.e. c:/wizardry7).
Then, you run install.bat directly from the ms-dos window (not in dosbox).
If that works, that should create a directory called wiz-cd on your hard drive.
Then you must copy that directory in your wizardry 7 directory.
Then you shoul use dosbox to mount teh wizardy7 directory as c.
then you type cd/w7
then you type play.
hope this works.

First, I'm Daniel, from Brazil

I'm a real fan of old RPG and strategy games, so I went to heaven when I found abandonia...

I played W7 in my old 386 a decade ago, but I never finished it... in that time my english was almost inexistent to understand those riddles (its still horrible, by the way ) Nowadays I want to finish this game, but I don't have time to waste resolving riddles... My computer is a 500mhz, so the game is already slow in DOSBOX(i had to cut out the sounds to play it :tai: ) I just want two things:

A resolution for the dumb, one that says exactly what i have to say or do on each step, just to finish the game...

A cheat to begin the game with realy strong characters, for I don't wanna waste time in battles and evolving characters...

If you can help me, I'll be thankfull

For a very detailled walkthrough through the game look here - DLH.NET
For a cheat (not exactly an overpowered party but something useful anyway) look here - DLH.NET
Hope it helps you.

The walkthrough is excelent, but I wasn't able to use the cheat codes... It says:

"Type in at the save menu:

BROTHER MOSER WANTS A TURBO-CHARGED DEATH SWORD

[L] - One level up for all characters
[M] - Monster ON/OFF
[x] - 50.000 experience points
[W] - No clipping mode
[i] - Teleporter
[F12] - Teleporter map
[Einf] - Ending sequence"

I didn't understand, where exactly at the save menu should I type these codes? ... what key should I use? enter, shift, ctrl...

Hope I don't look much stupid...

Thanks anyway for the walkthroug... k:
