@mitu should I copy the whole thing or just the autoexec section?

mitu

@bkumanchik Just the [autoexec] section.

@mitu I'll try that, that's what I pasted above. I DID get Dungeun Keeper working ising the CD mount stuff from Erfriim.

@bkumanchik this is what you need to add:

[autoexec] 
@echo off 
mount c: /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pc-data/
cd BIOFORGE
BIOFORGE.EXE
exit

bkumanchik

@edmaul69 That finally did it! Thanks for all your help guys!

Efriim

@bkumanchik
Ahh yeah, the INSTALL.OPT file for this game, you can change where it would point to the cd to the install path instead and go cdless. It also needs to find the data in C:\BIOFORGE\ so mounting the pc-data as the C root is the way to do this one; and many others that install to HardDisk with install options.

@Efriim It's working great now!

It's actually quite cheap at the moment, thanks for the heads-up!

@Brigane Yes, they have a sale, a lot of good old games are now just a penny. Bought The Day of the Tentacle the other day.
