Alright, so I'm trying to get this game working, & like everyone else out there, I'm getting the "hr_hires.c #1,-1" error

With most dos games, I just drag the icon onto dosbox & it runs without any problems
Due to the issues with Lion, I've been actually starting up Dosbox & following instructions to a T

I realize it's been discussed before, but the fact is I've gone through every page of this thread, tried every variant that's been mentioned about how to fix it (putting it directly into C:, putting it in it's own folder, etc)
I've double & triple checked this to make sure I don't have ANY spelling mistakes or other PEBCAK errors.

The fact is, it's not working, & I can't figure out why. Is anyone else still having the same problem even after all the troubleshooting, or is it something to do with my computer?

(also, if I try starting the game not in dosbox, I get a black screen that says "Divide Error" then it shuts itself down.

Just a really stupid question, can you save a game? I've played Wolf and it let me save, but in lion I can't figure out where it is. :'[ If someone has a screenshot of it can you please put it up to show me. Because Starting over all the time isn't really helping e get cubs. x[

Hello, thanks to all who replied to the help needed posts! Although I didn't post for help, merely reading the forums solved my problem of being unable to run "lion" the game. <_<

However since it was a bit confusing to get it running, I want to say the solution is to use DOSBOX but key in "mount c c:\". Then "c:". Then "cd lion". Lastly "lion".

The idea is to get DOSBOX to read something like "C:\LION>lion"

If it reads "C:\>lion", then you'll get the error message "hr_hires.c #1.-1"
In other words, mounting the LION folder directly on C: doesn't work!

I find this extremely odd because the same is not true for WOLF. If anybody who understands the programming of these games better can provide an explanation for this, I'm all ears.

[_r.u.s.s.]

the same error happens with crazy pinball. i see no reason why could it be like this, but since it occurs with more games maybe its a dosbox issue or something

Great game but it's a shame it has no sound

I like this game but it's not as good as wolf but still it took forever for me to get it to work but I did it! Question how do you mate?

One good thing about this game is there's no set breeding season; lions breed year-round. Make sure all of the lions' bars are full or nearly full, and then start clicking on the other lion like mad. It should happen sooner or later.
*note* I have not been able to tell yet if mating is always successful. You may want to try it several times to get pregnant.

Yeah, I think found the answer to that because I mated three times with a lion and went all the way to 110 days (by clicking the moon) and nothing happened. So I mated again, I tried to mate a second time but it would not let me so, I went to the 110 days and CUBS! So I think you have to mate until it won't let you anymore! My cubs are so cute!
*note* Don't you think they should of mentioned that this game shows mating? For the little kids that play this game? lol! :amused:

Ooh, wait. So the second time, you used the fast-time with the moon to pass time and you got cubs? I didn't know it could actually speed up gestation time, since it doesn't seem to affect seasons.
Also, yeah, the thing with the lionnesses is really odd, and nothing I've ever seen. Would be interesting, though.
