Just nothing ...
I click on the example "a" (FILENAME: C:savea)- and it should be saved.
But how do I want to upload - in the lower right window appears:
"Not an secure email game. No PEBM security check needed."
And he does not upload the script.

I remember something that you need to make a "save" folder. But I do not remember how.

Hi, Many thanks to Ian, Rich Dionne for posting a good way to get these games to load in DOSbox. I had them running (WIR and PacWar), but they were slower than pond water in January. With rich's config, it runs fine. And thanks for Matrix for keeping these forums going all this time.

Now, I just need to get it to run in a larger screen. My system has IBM WUGA screen resolution, that's a 1920x1200 16:10 version of full hd's 1920x1080 16x9. I tried ALT-Enter but the computer didn't like that. Perhaps defining something almost as big maybe WSXGA+ 1680x1050 will work. I like these old 16x10 monitors because they give you 11% more vertical space, good for spreadsheet work, etc, but the games were all 4:3 of 16:9 and the sometimes choke on a 16:10 screen.

I'm an old hand at DOS, batch & cnfig files and the like, but tying to remember all the myraid details is sometimes too much.

Now I just need to mind my old edited OBC41 file to make some further adjustments and I'll be back on this one for a while.

Hi Ranger,

great that you are back. Not sure if you saw my posting that I look for an opponent to test my update of Flankers scenario and his program updates. I'm now doing final adjustments and testing these.

Cheers,
Chris
