Kyrandia 1+2+3

Post by SaarSushi »

Can't get any of them to run, not even on the PC's scumm.
I'm using all the files from the CD in their respected folders. I copied the CD to a folder, and I specify for the scumm to look there, but he just can't find the game.

:(

that's probably because only Kyrandia 1 is supported. Do you have the kyra.dat datafile?

Lack of time, I guess. I think only two developers have done any substantial work on the Kyrandia engine and while they've done some work on them, neither game is playable at this time.

For now, DOSbox is probably the best option.

But Kyrandia 3 is a Windows-based game and DosBox can not load it? And anyway I got my original Kyrandia 3 to work with XP, but the voices don't be heard very well.

EDIT: Damn, now when I try to start rungame.exe, but system restarts.

Kyrandia 3 is a DOS game and runs great for me in DOSBox; the "windows" version they packaged with westwood games of that era (like the first first C&C and Malcolm) basically just quit Windows98 and ran the game in DOS mode as far as I remember
