Hi folks, i used to play dos version of ADOM in win98 and i am used to its fonts and colors. Now I have win2k and as I figured by testing and reading the forum, only stable playing is either with A/AdomWinbeta4 - which has strange (tiny) fonts and no fullscreen. B/Adom Sage - has fullscreen but ugly colors So is there anyway to run adom in win2k fullscreen(or at least with dos-resemble font) and nice colors? Thanks. (Btw. i search the and google with no answer to this) |

You might get the dos version of ADoM to work if you run it in command.com (not cmd) it works for me, and I use Win2k. To run command.com press start -> run -> command "I don't know what World War 3 will be fought with, but I know World War 4 with be fought with sticks and stones." - Albert Einstein [Edited 1 time, last edit on 2/11/2006 at 06:37 (GMT -5) by Morio] |

Thanks Morio - i read about it one of your older posts. For me its a bit more stable than running through Cmd, but stll crashing evenutally. :-( I have found this http://www.geocities.com/adombot/tweakfont.zip which enables to fiddle with the fontsize of winbeta4 version, but still nothing like the good old Dos fullscreen. :) |

after few more hours testing: i missed fullscreen, so i tried Morios approach again and since the then no crash. So thanks Morio!! - great advice - I will stay with dos version and command.com (but creating backups regularly, just in case...) |

Does the command.com trick work well in windows xp? |
