Hi - is Simon the Sorcerer no longer part of the project? I have to confess Im struggling to install it to my hard drive and was hoping to grab a reliable version from here! Cheers

All commercial games are covered by the project, I don't have permission to release the game, if that's what you mean?

To HD install, you could try the instructions in the boot script:

Code: Select all

To install to hard disc:
1. Insert disc 9 and Boot via ADFFS Filer\Boot floppy
2. Replace the contents of !Simon.!Run with:
  ADFBootFloppy F1033201
EDIT: Sorry, forgot to mention that if you haven't imaged the floppies as JFD, you'll need to create an Obey script for step 1. Something along the lines of:

Code: Select all

Dir ADFS::0.$
ADFBootFloppy F1033209

Hi Jon, Im not really getting that far - as my ADF's seem to keel over on disk 6 with an error, so the install doesnt complete to the HDD.

It sounds like you're using the TOSEC ADF's which are all truncated short.
