I've been trying to install LBA1 for quite a while now, and keep running into snaffus, but I finally am close! Only one or two more problems to solve before I can play.
I have a mac, so am using the MSDOS version and playing through DosBox. I converted the .nrg file from the download to a .iso using a program I found online, then mounted the iso as a drive that called itself 'Adeline'
So, in DosBox (following the installation guide found at
http://www.lbahq.com/sound.htm) i mount first the CD drive using the following
mount -t cdrom d /Volumes/Adeline
Then, I'm supposed to mount my LBA directory.
QUESTION 1: where exactly is my LBA directory? Do I have to make it? Am I supposed to copy the files from the .iso into a folder on my harddrive? I've tried doing this and not doing this and it didn't seem to make much difference. Regardless, I encounter question 2:
QUESTION 2: Even after I've mounted the CD drive, whenever I try to run the game using lba.exe I am kicked out from the game booting by the 'No CD' message in DOSBOX. How do I get around this? I have tried various combinations of mounting the drive, running from it, mounting other drives etc etc but nothing works. Can anyone help???
I've been dying to play this games again! I played them both when I was younger and loved them, and it's been too long!
