      @edmaul69 I don't think it's the sh file because the game starts up fine, it's just when I press enter after a minute it crashes. I'll try changing the dosbox-svn.conf I'll let you know what happens.

          @maalik_ you arent using the game from gog.com or steam are you? I would go googling for a download of it. I know the gog.com or steam one has issues.

              @maalik_ yes. The google download versions should work fine. You might have to run the disk to install the files that go on the "hard drive".

                      @maalik_ I'm trying to download Oregon Trail, The Mist, Zork, and Epic Pinball. I'm just not sure were to start with each of them, are they all the same to install?

                        @maalik_ they are not the same. Epic pinball uses a cd. Oregon trail does not. Their .sh files will be different.

                          @edmaul69 I need a cd for Epic Pinball? Not just the files? Also do you have discord so we could text faster? Also, sorry if my questions sound dumb, I am very new to dosbox.

                            @maalik_ you dont need the cd. But there is a cd image file that you make dosbox see as the cd. Oregon trail was on a floppy so it wont have an image file. I just set it up. No clue how to use it. My username is the same.

                              @maalik_ also you said the mist. Is myst what you are looking for?

                                  @herb_fargus works in windows 3.11 on dosbox as well. Im just not sure if he meant to say myst or the mist. I use my actual disc in a dvd drive on the pi.

                                    @edmaul69 Ok I believe its Myst, sorry for the confusion. Also, to add you on discord I need your four digit tag, should be in the bottom left under your name on the desktop version.
