Good luck, let us know how you get on!

I'm struggling to get this game to work, I've DLd Dosbox but don't understand how to use it. Really want to play this game too

Welcome to the site, TwoShotTino!

I haven't been able to get it to work either.

I play it through an emulator on my mac - I think it's windows xp, which has computability modes. All you need to do (I think) is fiddle around with lower colour settings and the right computability mode to make it work.

It will run for a while on my old XP but eventually hits a problem as it doesn't seem to remember all the places I've been and people I've talked to. I got stuck so eventually looked up how to progress on a bulletin board only to find that I had already done everything I needed to do it's just that the game didn't recognise this :roll:

The game is available to DL at classicgamingpresents.com I'm currently DLing the 2nd game as I haven't played that either. I will post once installed about how well the game runs on Windows7 (Hopefully very well

)

So Tony if it's abadonware could you put the psp version link back?

Huh? I have no idea what you mean, sorry.

Ah, I see. Well I deleted the link and don't have a record of it, so the only thing I can suggest is that you contact the original poster by PM.

Hoorah for Discworld Noir! I've been replaying it for the past week or so, love it! I use a Win 98 emulator to play, just love the nostalgia kick of the old OS boot up music

I had always wished that this story would be re-written for a book/novel one day ...

I am going to play this in easter.

The first time I played it, i had not read all the books. (a loooooong time ago) I did the other two last summer and had to have the walk through for almost every step. WTF was shouted quite frequently. As I remember it Noir is a bit more sane? logical?
