Problem Starting the Game...

Post by Gavindale Marchovia »

I downloaded Dungeon Master 2 from online the other day, but when I try to start/load it, I get error screens. Can anyone tell me which file I am supposed to open to make this game work? I thought I tried every bootable file, but I could be wrong. Can someone help me here?

Hey there, welcome to the forum :). Can you give us a bit more info as to which version of DM2 you downloaded/where you downloaded it from? I think there's a few different versions out there and you haven't mentioned what you've got.

I don't know how to check what version of Dungeon Master 2 I have on my computer. Can you please tell me where to find out what version I have? I don't recall which website I went to for downloading Dungeon Master 2. I can do some research on that if need be. Sorry bout that :(

I took a look a the link you sent, but am still at a loss of how to fix my problem. I have tried opening all the apparent files, but I am still at square one with loading Dungeon Master.
