what is the error.
if its about the drivers, don't worry thats not important.
from each disk you need to copy to your isteel folder, all idx data.
all avi or mpg video.
all wav data
all wav idx data.
all id files.
the setup is needed to make the game.cfg.
you in addition
need the composer.lg file
and all disk.* files 1-4
glossery.txt
the help.hlp file
you will also need the ms help viewer update
to get this the easiest way is to go to
www.mush-z.com
or www.blindsoftware.com and download and run the right msu file
depending on what your system type x86 or x64 is.
you will need the panic.ssg file
and the readme file if you want to
the cfg file is called
TSAGEWIN.CFG
avivideo can also be mpegvideo.
here is a sample
I will put the sample below, and tell you what all the lines are
DM = 0
This line is for demos.
it can be 1 or 0 1 will play a demo I assume at one point there was a demo.
It plays the first part of the game only though I am not sure what
the significance is now.
HASDIGI = true
PLAYER_SPEECH = on
these 2 lines are for sfx and speech.
Most of the sfx is in the videos and the digital line and speech
lines are for sound only.
They don't work because the setup is looking for old versions of
mciavi and mciwave but can't find them because they are not win
3.1 files though the game will work without them.
VOLVIDEO = 1000
video volume, leave alone.
VIDEXT = AVI
AVITYPE = AVIVideo
this aparently is for the video file type.
that can be mpeg or avi aparently though I have not seen the mpeg
version so that version may be newer.
FAMILY = FALSE
If you have kids you may want to make that true.
PATH = c:\ISTEEL\
game path
ROLLING_SAVE = PANIC
This looks to be what the save for sertain things is as the game goes.
you can replay entire games to and sequences.
CD = c:\ISTEEL\
AVI = c:\ISTEEL\
the next 2 lines are for the location of video files and the cd.
SCALING = OFF
I never used this but it probably has to do with mono or small
screens or something
SUBTITLES = OFF
This thing had other languages though I never found them.
for its time it was good, but it was just game iindexes and video files.
for its time it was quite good.
