I tried to burn a CD

#1 Post by Gryphindor » Mon Sep 17, 2001 6:07 am

I burned your game and it did the autorun fine, but then ags had an error that said it can't run off a cd. It said it needed at least a MB. It does! Is there a way I can edit the inf or something? <p>Adventure games are life............I think, unless I just have no life but I think I do. But what If I really don't but I think I do and then I say stupid things like Adventure games are life and...Oh no I've gone cross-eyed</p><i></i>

Running it directly off a cd won't work. You need to burn the installation file (KQ1VGA.exe) onto the cd, and then run KQ1VGA.exe from the CD to install KQ1 on the computer in question. <p></p><i></i>

i have one question- on your page you have the KQ1 box which looks like the old EGA cover but with the new cover (vga) inserted into it! Can i get a LARGER picture of this or is it only a small modification and un-blowupable ( I want to get the cd cover with the clasic in there. If not i can make it myself i think. Thanx guys! <p><img src="http://yodamonline.homestead.com/files/yodamdirect.gif" border="0"></a> <CENTER><TABLE STYLE=filter:GLOW(color=#0000FF,strength=#+7)><FONT COLOR=white>"All right people!

Soon, we will release the (un)official KQ1 VGA cover so you on the site so can people can print it out themselves.<br><br>The cover is designed to fit a DVD box and is the same cover that we will be printed for the prize copies of the game that we'll give away. <p></p><i></i>

AGD2's post was made shortly after the game was first released. After some more research, we found out that the printing costs per CD were quite high unless we'd do a bulk order. So it's possible that the contest won't be held. Unfortunate, but true.<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://httpd.chello.nl/c.vanempel/Nashs ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> <p></p><i></i>
