I have finally gotten everything to work.
I use the D-Fend v2 and set eviroment to:ġ0000 Cycles, 500 up, 20 down, normal CPU Core, 0 Frame Skip and Hi people, I wonder if someone could tell me what settings leads to the best performence. Then configure D-Fend v2 to run war2.exe and setup.exe as usual, including IMGMOUNTing iso each time as X:\. Now you have game installed into desired folder. To install, do: IMGMOUNT iso as X:\ drive directly in Dosbox (before this MOUNT your hdd as C:\ drive to set fullpath to your iso) then MOUNT folder, where you wish to install, as G:\, for example then run X:\Setup.exe -w (switch -w must present), specify G:\War2TD as target dir, and install. Setup.exe doesn't work in my WinXP, and it doesn't work in DosBox if iso is inserted into my virtual CD-Drive. I have War2 ISO Image Retail 1.22 (english version). Hello! Maybe this comment will be helpful to somebody.
Works like a charm for me, no need to tweak the configuration file other than mounting D: as the CDROM, but this is a software protection, not a Dosbox issue.ĭosbox v0.63 + D-Fend v2 + War2 ISO Image Retail 1.22 ( 13:51) Testing with an ISO image made from my original CD both on Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04. If you consider yourself a Warcraft II junkie and are looking for a simple nostalgic challenge, then this demo is worth the download.Warcraft 2: Tide of Darkness - Blizzard (1995) During testing, we found that the demo works well on Windows XP, as well as on older versions of Windows.
You aren't able to queue build orders, or assign group numbers to selected units, as just a few examples. A lack of advanced features (that appear as serious improvements in Age of Empires and Warcraft III) does make Warcraft II less appealing. Gameplay is straightforward and the game's graphics, while not state-of-the-art (this version was released in 1996, after all) are not so basic as to detract from the game itself. The goals are basic: build bases for your peasants, collect gold and lumber and keep the enemy at bay. Warcraft II allows you to play either as a human or an orc, and each race is given its own special set of abilities and talents.
An older version of the real-time strategy classic, this fantasy adventure still holds interest despite out-of-date graphics and limited advanced features.
