How to: Install/Play The Elder Scrolls: Daggerfall on DOSbox Part One

[gamotousfasistes42]

thank man really helpful



[Noslen1488]

How do you unrar?

[Carmelpoptart]

agh, why does this have to be so complicated? im not good with stuff like this. it should just be with any other emulator instead of slowly and painfully typing some random words with / and :'s in there just to get a game to work.

[miniclip1162]

[Forgedinsuffering]

[Rocketfing3r]

subscribed.

[screamsasu97]

how many space the installation requires? i have more than 20gb but it isn't enough....this guide is perfect thank...sorry for english

[TheAmok99]

Best Tutorial Ever

[deslaya7777]

if anyone is having trouble at the end where it says error the path not specified etc. try instead of c.cfg try z.cfg if its not that check the dagger folder your under and look for one of those files that is .cfg and has the 1 letter but dont do caster.cfg

[MrFiretiger778]

please explain your video more you typed in 1 or : then entered and i didn't know what you did then you went to a random page -.-

[LasMigras]

yo i got to the last part where you type in install.exe it said illegal command? any help.. im running windows 7?

[joosepkrassavin]

thank you!!!

[AesirV]

This was excellent. Works perfectly. Thank you!

[DethGuyX3]

this worked last night, but nao when I try, dos box says that I dont have cd in.. -.-

[westcheme]

it said that its unable to change to DFCD



[westcheme]

it told me that it couldnt change it to DFCD

[gMemo92]

Ok. It tells .. (You have the wrong CD. Please put the CD in the tray)

But i put exactly as you say. And it tells me Error: Path not specified. And something else

[Jenema2]

This iis better than Marrowind but harder than hell! XD

[celtic4ever91]

I've been trying for 3 days solid to get this to work, I can now finally do that, Thank You!!!

[Zeldafanboi115]

hey I typed in fall.exe c.cfg, but it said error.. what should I do?

[gMemo92]

@Zeldafanboi115

Yeah i have this problem. It's so annoying it like 2:02AM over here and i'm all sleepy. I am MAD.

[xmrxfixit]

what did you type in to get to the directory?

[AwokenWillow]

@xmrxfixit "dir" without quotes.

[PapasBeer]

Wow, thanks man Fianlly, I can play it, it was an awesome tutorial, props to you and again just THANKS A LOT.

[Equilibrijo]

you had helped me a lot

thanks

[Seraph825]

When I get it up and running and the main menu comes up asking me if i want to Load or start a new game, the mouse cursor doesnt work. I still have the black arrow that appears on dosbox, but the arrow for daggerfall itself is stuck in the corner of the screen. any ideas?

[PsYchotic666Joker]

when i try to type mount d c:/dosgames/df/DFCD -t cdrom -label Daggerfall it fails and tells me MSCDEX: Failur: Drive-letters of multiple CDRom-drives have to be continuous. any ideas people? o_O

[supergamer2401]

it doesnt work when u type fall.exe z.cfg it has the samem message as when u type daggerfall.exe

[supergamer2401]

arena is way easier to play u dont have to install u just click on the folder and it will extract the files then u go to dosbox and type mount c c:/

c:

cd arena

arena

and ur playing arena :)

[Ragingstrapon]

Great video man!! i give you props!!

[12potatos]

It works and all but please tell me how to run it again cuz i cant install it over and over again or whatever :S

[xHotxPandax]

I LOVE YOU MAN

[rkjgjkdfjoisuzirhjri]

@xHotxPandax i agree with you

[W4V3MAKER]

Lmfao, you know, I said the same thing when it said cd was not in drive. That other video on youtube sucks. Thanks man, this helped me out so much.

[ttocsisme]

@joshlongley well all i can say is the obvious stuff like is it named correctly and directly in your c drive, you could just try renaming the folder to something else if you wanted too

[sbryans123]

Ur right about the digital setup but for MIDI dosbox emulates mpu401. its in the DOSBox 0.74 Options file. everything else your right on for. Plus mpu401 just sounds the best. only problem is it doesn't keep the tempo like it should but messing around with the cpu cycles fixes that. The magic number seems to be around 20000 to 25000 which also seems to be the best for arena too. if u need to change your MIDI option (1) mount c c:\dosgames\df (2) c: (3) cd DAGGER (4) SETUP.exe

[sbryans123]

@sbryans123 One more thing. you didn't say how to change the meme size. for daggerfall dosbox is supposed to be set to 32. you have to find DOSBox 0.74 Options file and look for meme and change the number to 32. If you want to mes with anything else you can. you can all ways reset to default by clicking Reset Options. I have cycles=22700, blocksize=2048, and prebuffer=25. You'll need to mes around a bit to find what works. also i have cycledown=10 so it doesn't go down 2 for every 1 up.

[ttocsisme]

damn thought mine froze on the sound card config didn't realize you have too use arrow keys

[ttocsisme]

fuck dagerfall yeah

[joshlongley]

every time i typed in that stuff on the thing it said  c:/dosgames/df doesnt exist . someone help please this shit is killing me i though this video was good ( no offense ) but it didn't work why cant someone do a step by step video of them doing it because when you start sayin shit like c directory i have no clue wtf your saying . someone anyone please help me im a dumbass when it comes to this computer stuff i just like video games .

[ttocsisme]

@joshlongley type mount c c:/dosgames/df, it will work if your dosgames folder is named correctly and in the c drive

[joshlongley]

@ttocsisme it said mount c c:/dosgames/df doesnt exist .

[hohosana534]

it worked up untill i typed in fall.exe z.cfg, then it gave me a ration of shit about the path and map file not specified what the hell!

[LilPunKid]

Thanks so much man.

[lamidlE]

if anyone else is having that glitch use this code: FALL.EXE Z.CFG

that's what worked for me anyways

[lamidlE]

you got me farther than any other video but when i type

C:\DAGGER>fall.exe c.cfg

it starts to play but then says

ERR: path not specified

ERR: map file not specified

there are configuration error(s)

i have an ok idea how to do the path thing i just said ok to it like you did i guess my dos just didn't automatically do it or whatever but i have no clue about the map file, could you pleae help?

[TheGamesrule5]

@lamidlE TRY CD\daggerfall



[MaxiMachine]

I FUCKING LOVE YOU FOR THIS!

[chicopapass]

@dudesidedwhatmaster he made his own folders. you probably have a folder called DFInstall. use that instead of dosgames

[thermalKITTEN]

it says c/dosgames dosent exist

[MegaExtremeGames]

"Might be my last one don't know if I'll do anymore..."

[Revan685]

[killerslayer543]

[TheDavidudel]

[The1andonlyBDye]

how do you unRAR the dfinstall at 1:10 in the video. Whenever I try to open the dfinstall it just keeps opening and closing my internet without stop and I have to restart my comp. I'm not a computer person btw and have no clue what I am doing. :)

[Dragonagemast]

@The1andonlyBDye download winrar and right click the rar file and click extract files that should work

[Dougaloon]

You're awesome. "I haven't played yet, I wanted to make this tutorial." There needs to be more people like you. Thanks :P

[Zachary916CA]

I did this on the letter and on the fall.exe c.cfg it says the path not specified map not specified

[heroneededsoon]

You sir are a saint. It worked perfectly

[Fantome001]

Well look at that. I've never used DOSBox in my life and this got it working in one go. I've been sitting here for 2 hours trying to play Daggerfall. It's my first DOS game. I've been told it's the best Elder Scrolls game (like I'd know =P).

[SavageGames360]

@Fantome001 lol your welcome :)

[danmas86]

oh this is a great help, on the pdf it says type mount c etc into the command prompt, so was using windows command prompt duh

[rostereas]

thank you for this video if i ever stop raging i might play it again

[TheChubTrio]

THANK YOU SO MUCH, Im getting ready for 11.11.11 and wanted to play all TES before Skyrim , THANKS!!!

[TheMetalArts]

Thanks man, like you said, every single other video on this topic is atrocious. You made it clear, simple, and can speak english without sounding like a retard.

[Agrijjag]

holy fuck man thank you so much! This was the 7th video i watched and yours was the easiest and acually worked! i love you man...no homo

[Xeonort]

Great tutorial man, seriously saved me a lot of frustration. Followed it to the letter, and it all worked perfectly. Instant like.

[fullofawesomeness37]

by far the best guide I've found to install this

[charlielowegames]

it says that df dosent exsist

[SuperChickenPork]

AWESOME you helped so much!!!!!! i now can play an oldie game!!!

[coolaccountname]

OMG, bro. You're a saint! I've spent like 2 hours trying to install this game, and I got stuck exactly where you did. Typed in your command and it works like a charm. GG!

[HkHonorKillz]

My problem this whole time was that i wasnt putting the slash in mount c c:/dosgames

[ForThePeoples]

love you man, i spent nearly two weeks jumping from tutor to tutor, and this one was it. keep up the great job!!

[mandrewization]

This was an excellent tutorial. Very helpful, very straight forward. I was able to install and run the game without any difficulty from this. Thank you sir. You are a gentleman and a scholar.

[unnunn12]

I can't get control of my mouse, please help.

[88Meters]

You, sir, are a child of Akatosh. You are a saint and a SCHOLAR!

[trickysquirel]

[doolyboy999]

[BigLebowski248]

[sakavanagh97]

@wannabebluesguy same here
