Help with some games not running properly
Posted: Sat Dec 01, 2018 4:05 am
These are a few miscellaneous problems some of my games are having, both not launching correctly are just behaving odd.
1.) Whenever I attempt to launch Fallout, I get this message:
"Stub exec failed:
dos4gw.exe
No such file or directory"
I downloaded Fallout from DOSgamesarchive and the file it listed is a seperate, unrelated file.
2.) I have trouble with games going full screen. Even if I do alt + enter it puts the full image in the corner and the rest stretches out all weird like.
3.) The mouse for my computer and the graphics in games don't match up, no matter if I'm fullscreen or not.
Those last two issues only appear on the two games I've been able to make work, being Warcraft and Command and Conquer. I have difficulty launching my other games, being Doom, Elder Scrolls Arena, and obviously Fallout.
Apologies in advance if I don't understand something. I'm new to MSDOS, DOSbox and computers and PC gaming as a whole.
