well apparently I'm just destined to not play this game. my boxed copy of WC has 4 5 1/4 1.2mb disks. I have no idea how many disks the game originally came on. all the disks work fine and when I get to disk 4 in the install process it installs a few files then asks for disk 4 (the disk installed). on looking at my disk #4 it has "secret missions" on the label leading me to believe that maybe my copy is missing the actual disk #4 and instead I have the 4th disk to the expansion?
so I went on Ebay and bought another copy on 3 1/2 1.44mb disks. unfortunately they are corrupt. you can see all the files on the disk but when you try to run the game from disk or install I get a "abort/retry/fail" error. also tried on a different system and drive to same effect.
so, can anyone confirm how many 5 1/4 disks the original game came on or possibly have a solution? This was basically the game I setup my 386 to play.
oh yeah. also if I go to play the game off the 5 1/4 it loads very slowly, gets past the title screen then crashes due to a memory error. that may of been a 1 time thing though as it involved about a hundred disk swaps so I didn't attempt it a second time.
