XanAlderon Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Recently i found out you could download the elder scrolls arena from Beths website! Did anyone else know about this??? It wouldn't work on my computer though.....but maybe it'll work on yours, so try it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palpenious Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Yeah, it was the tenth anniversary or something, you need DOSbox to get it to run. I forget where to download that though, there was a link when I got Arena. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XanAlderon Posted December 3, 2008 Author Share Posted December 3, 2008 I downloaded dosbox but couldn't get it to work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Wolfe Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I seem to recall that it's no longer profitable to make that game anymore. They don't give a SH*T if it's pirated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palpenious Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 You have to mount the folder containing Arena as a virtual c: drive. Basically start Dosbox, then "mount c ", followed by the path you installed it. For me it's "mount c c:\arena". Then just type "c:" and enter, this will put you in the arena folder, which it thinks is the C drive. Then you just type "arena", which is the .exe file and it should start. You ought to have a file that came with arena called Arena setup, that's where it tells you all this stuff. If you don't, and still can't get it to work, just post back I can send you the doc file. Also, I don't know if there's a way to save the file path so you don't have to mount it every time, so get used to typing all that junk if you ever play it again.

herosinger Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Look up D-Fend Reloaded for help running DOSBox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XanAlderon Posted December 5, 2008 Author Share Posted December 5, 2008 Thanks I'll check it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihateregisteringeverywhere Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Yeah, you could do that. Mount your drives and all that or using another application or whatever.... Or you could simply drag the executable file on top of the dosbox shortcut you can conveniently place on your desktop. Works wonders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
