Post subject: | List o' Links |
To avoid complications amongst users and to clarify certain topics, here are a list of links regarding Daggerfall: Daggerfall Download Link Click on that link which leads to Daggerfall. You must be at least 17 years-old or older to download Daggerfall. Daggerfall is a game rated M, as such, Bethesda must acknowledge this and abide by US laws, and put up this age check. And nothing more. WinRAR To open the file downloaded, you need WinRAR. WinRAR can open a wide array of archives. From .rar, to .zip, to .7zip, and many, many more. You just need the free trial of WinRAR. 7zip Similar to WinRAR, 7zip can open archives of a wide array, and does it's task. DOSBox To play Daggerfall (and Arena!) you need DOSBox.* DOSBox is an emulator for DOS programs, which was the platform both Daggerfall and Arena were released for. Normal Computer cannot run these programs. (Windows 95 and up) * Not exactly. See below. DFInstall DFInstall will allow you to install Daggerfall on modern XP systems, with an array of features. Such as selecting it to install Daggerfall to play without the disc and enabling cheat mode. It will also install the patches for Daggerfall and the CompUSA patch. It is still recommended to play Daggerfall via DOSBox as DOSBox fixed many bugs that DFInstall does not. You may be able to run Daggerfall installed by DFInstall via DOSBox however, but I am not sure. Daggerfall Installation Guide With DOSBox by Freddo. If you encounter any problems, be sure to read that thoroughly and make sure you followed every step.

Also: if I could sticky this, I absolutely would. Thanks! |

Hello, You should add a link to DaggerfallSetup, because it is the most simple installer for a "Ready to play" Daggerfall (Same comment for ArenaSetup in the Arena DosBox guide Topic). |

I have chanced to come across a recent announcement that might prove of interest to Daggerfall players. Interkarma, the creator of utilities for Daggerfall modding, has launched a new mod titled Ruins of Hill Deep, which is a total conversion of Daggerfall within the TES Universe. Among its features are: a renewed graphic engine with smoothed pixels, a prolonged main quest, hand-made dungeons, many new monsters and loot. For more information, see the mod's website: http://www.ruinsofhilldeep.com/faq/ |

Hey all. I just downloaded all 9 files under the Official patches and Utilities section at http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Daggerfall:Files WinRar reported damaged or unknown file types for all of them. I tried downloading to different drives, renaming .zip to .rar, and extracting them with WinZip itself, but always get the damaged/unknown error message. Are they still kosher, or am I having a Fail moment here? |

As far as I know, you only need to download the first item (this one - link to download), as the others are included in it. It worked perfectly for me, so the download itself isn't broken. I did use WinRar. Which version of WinRar do you have? |

Ah ha, that's interesting. I didn't realise the self-contained alt setup file had all the goodies built-in! I skipped past reading about it at the top there because I've already got a DF install in place; however, this looks much better. Plus, I'd like to try out DXL, so this could be just the thing. For the record, I'm on WinRar 3.61 (I think). Anyway, I assume it's a problem at my end, so I'll try messing around here and report back when/if I resolve it. Thanks again for the tip! ![]() |

There used to be quite a few dedicated Daggerfall websites, but many of them are no longer maintained. However some have been preserved by the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine: King Svatopluk's Court The Daggerfall Embassy Daggerfall Crossroads Daggerfall review by Theodor Lauppert Beginner's Guide to Daggerfall The Essential Site The Hall of Adventurers Xanathar's Library Daggerfools Ser Arris' Daggerfall Pages CJY Daggerfall Page Some are still online: Daggerfall: An Enthusiast's Guide The Daggerfall Compendium [Edit] Forgot that Bethesda also had some useful stuff: Daggerfall Chronicles The Solution to the First Dungeon: Privateer's Hold Daggerfall Chronicles: The Lost Chapters |

Here's another site: http://www.m0use.net/ Apparently, it was hosted by Bethesda and has a certain degree of officialdom. |

It's sad looking back at some of Daggerfall, watching how some of the old parts of this community have turned to dust. We could have gone the way of any of those sites, if a few people had less passion. Never forget that! |

Hello ! I think that it's time to refresh the links toward the DaggerfallSetup page. In English: http://wiwiki.wiwiland.net/index.php?title=Daggerfall_:_DaggerfallSetup_EN In French: http://wiwiki.wiwiland.net/index.php?title=Daggerfall_:_DaggerfallSetup In Deutsch: http://wiwiki.wiwiland.net/index.php?title=Daggerfall_:_DaggerfallSetup_DE For those who don't know, DaggerfallSetup is the best way today to install Daggerfall with all the main official and non official patches and fixes, DOSBOX all configured and the game in four available languages: English, French, German and Russian. ![]() |

The Wayback Machine has preserved a Nuke/Computer Gaming Review feature article about Daggerfall dated 21 June 1996: http://www.nuke.com/cgr/features/9606/dagger.htm It's got some nice screenshots and also NPC animations, some appear in higher quality than what was eventually used in the game. On another note, Mark Jones recently updated his website, including Daggerfall pages: http://mjonesgraphics.com/index00.html |
