DOS Games Discussion

I am trying to use MoSlo to run WarCraft 2 and I get a message saying:

Unable to find WARCRAFT II data file 'data\maindat.war'
The file 'war2.ini' contains the 'CDPATH' to your CD-ROM drive and may
need to be modified if your CD-ROM drive has been reconfigured.

I checked the CDPATH and it says E:, which IS correct. I don't know what is going on. Can somebody please help me out? Thanks

Try copying the files into a directory in your HDD, ie make a folder on C: such as (Games) then make a sub directory call it (Installers)...
inside that folder create a folder call it (GAMENAME) such as you want wcraftII drop every file from the disk in that folder as this will save the disk getting wrecked, misplaced or stolen ..plus it will be easier to make backups just incase you ever scratch the original

It should be smooth sailing other than that...

If you have 10 bucks(at gamestop.com-it can be up to $12) you could just buy the battle.net version of the game. It comes with the expansion and is windows native. Also, though not explicitly XP compatible, I find it works on my computer. Actually if you don't have the expansion I'd say it's a great buy.
