Under a Killing Moon

So I managed to scrounge up a copy, and with the help of dosbox, installed. However, running the game, it does take off the flight deck, exploding on the runway. Tips on how you got UaKM to work?

heya man, first off, how are you using UAKM is it with a disc or image?
don't know if this is old news, but I got UAKM to work on winXP post-sp2 last night without dosbox, and midis+sounds work like a dream. if anyone wants to know how, let me know...

I'm using the discs. The original ones. No copies.

there are a couple of options, the one above (which i would like to hear) and the option im using, which is goto http://members.home.nl/mabus/ and download d-fend then download dos-box, use d-fend to setup uakm

I would appreciate knowing how you got UAKM running on XP without DOSBox!

Thank you,

Well, I know you didn't ask me, but I used VDMS, with practically the same settings as with the Pandora Directive.

Thanks, I've tried that, but UAKM has too many crashes. Although Pandora does run GREAT - no crashing at all!

Thanks,

I'll create a zip file containing all the goods to get the game to work :shock:

Goto

download my file, follow my tutorial, and it should work.

Result may vary from system to system, however...

Hi, rockefeller
I just tried your UAKM files, and when I try to run the game I keep getting a message stating that "no CD rom drives were found" and it shuts down back to my desktop. Can you offer any suggestions?

Thank you!

Well, I must have done something wrong in the setup because I just reinstalled your UAKM files and everything is working great!!

Thank you,

I'm glad you got it to work! 8)
For anyone else who may get the problems with the "no cd-rom found", here's why: it is possible in all last three tex games to have cd's in multiple drives to reduce or remove cd swapping. This mapping can be made under 'config' in the auxilary panel while in the game, or in the CONFIG.INI fil in the installation folder. If you copy my CONFIG.INI into the tex folder after installation, the cd-mapping changes to whatever I have set up. So all you need to do is after copying CONFIG.INI into the installation folder, open it in notepad, goto the bottom, and map the CDs according to your setup.

(hate to beat a dead horse, but here's an example if you're still unclear).

if you'll be using the original discs in your cdrom drive, and your cd-rom drive letter is "D:\", the map should look as follows:

[CD_MAP]
Disk1=D
Disk2=D
Disk3=D
Disk4=D

-I have made images of my discs using WinIso, to preserve the originals from wear and tear, and I mount the images using D-Tools, which creates virtual CD-ROM drives. I then mount all four discs into all four drives. Then I just look at which virtual drive correponds to which disk, and map accordingly:

[CD_MAP]
Disk1=F
Disk2=E
Disk3=G
Disk4=I

Hope this helps!

nm i got it working..any tips for PD? :)
Sure. Just download my package and follow my tutorial. I try to explain why certain things are done and what exactly is done in my tutorials, so that the work can be replicated should any of the files ever go missing. I'll include links to both my Pandora and UAKM packages below.
