Betrayal At Krondor

I downloaded everything but I can't get it to run... After I use setup and everything, when I click on the .EXE file, it just brings a black box up, then it drops down and disappears...

OR
Google --> VDMSound

It probably either needs more EMS or XMS memory or does not run with either of it (probably EMS). Try running it through dosbox, it's easier and faster to setup.

if you play it to the end, just make sure that after about chapter 4 or so Gorath and Owen have at least 20 rope. I got to the end and didn't have any rope so I had to give up

I went into chapter 7 or whatever with 5 rope, and ran out at the end. one more rope....

DAMMIT!

Not even a chance on stocking up with a hexeditor?

Some sort of rpg/adventure mix from Sierra.

Its pretty good, horrid graphics when wandering, but pretty good in fighting.. I love the storyline so far..

That game has never worked for me, on any OS from DOS to Win XP.

Got it running on 2k with VDMS but lack of time and me disliking the game's concept kept me from playing it.

Hurm... I even own the CDs.

Uhg, I hate that game. I got all the way to like the end of chapter 8 (or was it 9?), and where you are supposed to go into this house/mansion to start the next chapter it always crashes on me.

Typical Sierra game

Typical, like F.E.A.R. or something.. F.E.A.R. never crashed, even though my average FPS was like 12....

I personally liked betrayal in antara - anyone has it?

I can't find it anywhere

How many games from Sierra did you play? Well I guess not much, you're way too young.

Almost every adventure starting from 1990 got tons of bugs. Larry 1-X for instance. And about EVERY other game as well up to a certain year.

Wait, Antara... Krondor... bah! It was Antara I hate. I never actual played Krondor because I started Antara first and COULD NEVER FINISH. Though Krondor was around...

Underdogs is where I go to find some games that shine XD

A lot of them radiate alpha and gamma rays though. Go get Syndicate if you want to play something nice. Best. Game. Ever. Right after MoO2. (in my opinion)
