I downloaded daggerfall from gamesas and Window's seven 64 bit says that the file is not compatible with the version of Window's that I'm running. Ideas?

Download the Daggerfall.exe it will install the game and dosbox within 5 minutes and you will be playing...

i installed it on my windows 7 64 bit no problems. the site is French but the game is English.

worth a try.

what a plank.. i forgot to paste the link lol

You need to use DOSBox to run DOS games.

You have to install Dos Box as Feddo said. If you have problems with that, like I have, come back and ask us. I found a document that told you exactly how to install DosBox and what to do to get it to run for Daggerfall. PM me if you want me to send it to you. From that, now I can run any dos game with very little problems.

Alright, I'll go after that and get DOS box again (I've had it before). I'll chime in with problems.

Yeah, like i said download it from the link i posted the daggerfall.exe installs dosbox with it.

its perfectly safe in case you are wondering.

If you are using Chrome it will automatically translate the French to English.


while i'm here... why do i keep dying every time i fast traval in daggerfall?

It works! But i died at the hands of the first rat because i can't attack anything. On a laptop. Hints, please? (I dont think its a software thing, i just failed to figure it out)

Do you have your weapon out? If no weapon do you see your fists? And if so, are you attacking with them? I know sounds stupid but had to ask.

i figured out how to attack, but it didn't help against the imp.........I have to get used to using a keyboard and laptop mouse pad (until i get a usb mouse). This is the first game I've ever gotten into on a pc, iv'e always been strictly console. Now to make a character that doesn't svck completely, and that has magic so that the imp doesn't keep killing me.

If you can't kill the imp, then you probably didn't get the ebony dagger at CharGen. Imps require materials better than silver (?) to kill. During CharGen, you have an opportunity to answer several questions that affect additional bonuses and startup equipment you get when finding yourself in the cave. Some of them have "an ebony dagger" as an option. Or, if you let the game generate those bonuses at random and didn't get the dagger, just avoid the imp - don't open its door or, if it opened the door by itself, run behind the corner. Daggerfall monsters aren't good at pursuing and pathfinding.

Yes get the Ebony Dagger. I love it, and found it made the begining of the game so much easier. Without it, it was a lot of load, save, die. load save die. Over and over again.
