DOS Games Discussion

Hi guys,
I have been looking for this game for a while now.
It's a single player or 2 player game, where you have to go through a lot of all sort of enemies, like Soda cans, floppy disks (with boxing gloves) and so on..
I really don't know how to describe it since I haven't played it for a while.
Hope any of you guys have any idea what is this game..

Long shot: Electronic popple?

Yes, finnally! Thank's a lot dude!

As well I'll try to mention this in the same thread.
I've problems saving the game.
I've tried looking for the solutions but the ones I've got was to save game state, but what I really want is to be able to use game save option. When I try to save the game it promts that dosbox cannot open file POPPLE01.SAV, this file however does not exist, and if I try to create an empty file named like that the game freezes when prompted to LOAD or SAVE game.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Where do you have the game stored? If it's in program files somewhere, that could be why.

http://www.dosgames.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10437 or http://www.dosgames.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13511 give instructions on avoiding that in general with DOSBox and games.
c:\users\your name\oldgames\ is a good idea. I'm just used to using things like d:\games\, d:\games\dosgames\ and so on. Other partitions work fine.

I had the game stored in C:\Popple,
Changed the game destination to C:\Users\User1\oldgames\Popple but I still get the same error.

You're not trying to save on a CD mounted drive? Do you?

Maybe better open a topic in Get games to work and add some details how you mount/install/launch the game.
