Raptor won't run

Post by Weenis »

I was able to install Raptor on my other computer (a Windows 98) after I gave up on this XP. So it's installed but I dont know how to actually play the game.

Could someone please help?

1. Go to DOS prompt
Type and press Enter:
2. cd..
3. cd raptor (or wherever it's installed.)
4. rap (Set sound up first.)
NO Windows, NO DOSBox, DOS!

Raptor

Post by Digger90 »

I originally loaded Raptor on an old pentium 1 P166 way back when and backed up the whole thing to a tape drive. When I built my first AMD K6 system (Win98) I just copied all the files over and the game ran okay. I then built an AMD Duron system which has been upgraded twice and now is a dual boot Win98SE/Win XP. Each time I upgraded the HDD I just copied over all the files and still the game works. In XP you have to click on Rap.exe and then properties/compatability mode and click on Win95 or Win98 in the drop down box.
I hope this helps as it is truly one of the greatest games ever!
