Hmm, I wonder who that guest was, and who he/she was talking to. Probably a "he."
If I was the one to whom you were speaking: Thank you, and you are quite welcome.
Thanks,

EDIT: Quickening, I'm glad to hear that everything slid into place.

Willis, whatever the case, how did you guys take care of mouse support? And I suppose there is some way to enable basic TCP/IP for CAT5e ethernet cards? What about enabling sound, etc., you would need specific drivers for each card, right? I would love some help with this one.Willis wrote:Unfortunatly, adding a bootdisk without versitle sound support to buildxp would only cause me massive support email headaches.Slink wrote:Doods, do you still have that boot disk? May I cop a copy of it? Could Willis maybe post the disk on buildxp?

I think that the guide isn't no more useful now when the boys of DOSBox have published v0.70 ...DOOMLancelot wrote:Make sure it's updated. I had a non-updated version working using this method and the cutscenes didn't play.
By now creed that all have a sufficiently powerful PC in order to make to go it with DOSBox .....and he is also simpler to make than the guide.
Personally i playing Blood with a poor p4 3,2ghz, DOSBox, mounting CD drive naturally for soundtracks and clips, 640x480 fullscreen.....absolute perfect
thaks for this guide, i finally can play blood in full speed and high res thanks to you. the only problem now is that i dont have cd music.
when im running blood with dosbox, the music is there (but the games runs to slow due my 1.2gh cpu notebook).
anyone knows how you get cd audio working with this way?

I still need to actually do this to verify it, but you could try and get the CD initialization commands out of the the Window98 Bootdisk and load it into your dosbox.config file.
You could also get one of the virtual CD programs for DOS and load an ISO copy of your CD with it. There are quite a few tools to be found at that Bootdisk.com and Freedos.org

Sorry, I was a little unclear.
DOSBox is effectively it's own machine, what you have access to in Windows doesn't really matter to an application that is running on DOSBox, it may as well be on another machine. You will have to tell DOS in DOSBox how to access your hardware.
I linked to the 98 boot disk because it has the programs needed for DOS to find your CD-ROM and access it.

um, i think we still misunderstand each other, im not running the game with dosbox at all because it would run to slow with dosbox.
i have installed the game on win xp and running it like described by RedFanatic. im at the point everything works perfect and only the music, neither midi or cd music does play. any idea?
