Wolf (sanctuary woods) on Win XP - 07/11/04 04:59 AM
Yeah, remember that old DOS game back in 1995? I was wondering if there is any way it could work on Windows XP.

Download this:
http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/dosbox
and when you run the program and get to the c: prompt with it, type this to enable local/real cd-rom access.
mount d: H:\ -t cdrom -ioctl -usecd 1
replace the H:\ with the letter of your actual cdrom drive in windows XP. Then Wolf works just fine.

I can't find the game anywhere except UnderDogs.org and obviously that doesn't come with a cd... so how can I get the ripped version to work on my windows xp??

I've been trying this as well for the LION game. I have the cd, but that DOS emulator is just giving me a hard time. 
I can get into D:\LION , but I can't run the .exe file necessairy to play! Any suggestions or advice for a totally confused newbie?

Emulator won't help with Wolf. You have to turn off music and sound effects(unless you want hear beeps or own said sound cards) via setup.exe if you want it work.
Wolf and Lion both work finely in XP, except Wolf had nasty side-effect: after three hours playing, it changed desktop colours to 4-bits, because it obviously uses less than that.
And about mating... You have to just count days. (It is good way to keep old calendar beside you and count changing of the moon.)
Two weeks before winter changes to spring, it is time to try. When you face female/male wolf and choose "do you want to mate?" (You both must be on Alpha position, no less) instead baring fangs, other wolf comes and nuzzles you, alike humans hug.
I've succeeded here only once and played male wolf, so female wolf didn't moved inch, but lie near den, going only feed herself. After 60 or so days, you must name cubs that are born.
You may ask about me via MSN, yakuzakyuu@hotmail.com. I've played Wolf since my childhood(being 20 years old now).

Okay... I seem to be running into a problem with Sanctuary Woods' LION. I installed it, and it runs at the startup, but when I click using the mouse, the screen turns blank and the lights on my monitor (to adjust the different screen sizes, etc)blink... Any clue what's causing it? I'm thinkin it has to do with the resolution or something.

Okay I got wolf to work with VDMS. But when you actually get to play the game the graphics are way messed up. It has lines all through it! Anyway to fix this?
Also I tried wolf and lion with the dosbox but I tried to type in that command but it says illegal command or something... How do I get Lion and wolf to work with dosbox? I actually have the real Lion CD rom...
