Welcome to the UESP forums! I'm sorry but I don't know anything about Daggerfall, but I know of two people who could possibly help you. Magnus, possibly found thru this idea... http://forums.uesp.net/viewtopic.php?t=5063

or Timmeh, if you click on his name found in a few threads in this forum you can pm him or try getting ahold of him through the wiki.

You could also ask in the UESP irc channel. It's Java based, so the only thing you have to do is clicking here.

Best of luck :)
I used to play Oblivion, then I took an arrow in the knee.

Firstly, give admin privilages to the Arena and DOSBOX .exes, you're life will be so much easier.


Install Arena into C:\ ARENA

Type the following to load the game up;

mount c c:\arena
C:
arena

---

It'll load.

If its too slow/fast type CTRL+F12 to quicken it, CTRL+F11 to slow it down.
