How can I get daggerfall to start?

[Noah_The_Warlock]

I have installed DOSBox, but I am having a hard time understanding how it works. Can I get some help?

I never had much luck getting Dosbox and Daggerfall to work well together, but just a couple of days ago I downloaded DaggerfallSetup, and it installed smoothly and runs perfectly. Haven't had to tweek anything.

Download link can be found on the wiki here.

There's some work arounds like deadfong said, but I have no problem starting Daggerfall directly from DOSBox. On the official Bethesda download, there's a PDF that gives you instructions that are very straightforward.

If you're using a virtual disk, like with the download, then you'll have to mount that in DOSBox through a series of commands. I extracted the files to a folder C: dosgames, as recommended in Beth's PDF, and it works swimmingly. Granted, there's a few lines worth to enter each time, but it's not very difficult at all.

Or use the auto launcher from wiwiland that i have recommended till exhaustion, it even includes an array of optional fixes and mods: http://theelderscrolls.wiwiland.net/?ti ... llSetup_EN

If you download Daggerfall from http://www.elderscrolls.com/daggerfall/, follow the steps in the .pdf Installation Manual.
No issues arise.
