Do you use a software like virtual drive ? or do you have a single CD that every time change it?

I have a problem with virtual drive, i can mount a cdrom drive with CD1.iso , the c:\Sword, and i can play, but when the game ask the CD2 i try to change CD2.iso the game don't recognize the CD2. I KNOW THAT I MUST GIVE the letter D at CDROM or don't GO! The system see the VirtDrive BUSY.

HOW CAN I SOLVE THIS PROBLEM With LINUX (MINT 9)?

[valandin2]

scrambledsmeg dont shit nobody can finish this game in 4 hrs maybe if somebody cheat like you.

[IDarkNight]

urharRar have all the reason. Is a fan game, and for this is incredible. Great work for mindfactory!

[mxjgr]

Still there is no reason to insult scrambledsmeg only because he has another opinion!

He just stated reasonably his point of view and I think he has a point there. The graphics, sound, music and speech are exceptionally good, but story and the puzzle are a letdown, which is kind of strange, because normally it is the other way around in fan games.

[UrharRar]

its a fan made game faggot, Take it for what it is, Mindfactory team worked very hard to make this game for so called asshole fans like you.

[scrambledsmeg]

this game was a complete letdown.there was not one challenging puzzle throughout the whole game and the game was to short,it has about 4 hrs playing time
