Hi folks,

Anyone here happen to know how/if Trojka can work with msxdos2?
The graphics are messed up here, for the rest everything seems to work.

running a floppy disk emulator and/or MAP.COM don't help either?

Trojka was a COOL game... screen 7 too... quite impressive actually, not that much games using screen 7.

Map.com seemed to work, the graphics of BCF logo and the titlescreen were ok.
But as soon as I try to start a new game, the thing crashes immediately :/

Is it okay if I do that instead?

first: you need to patch a few of the files. An already patched version is already available on funet in the mep-mirror section. The only files you need to update is called TROJKA?.128, TROJKA?.153 and TROJKA?.163 (on the place of the ? there is character 195, or was it 201?).

next: MAP.COM and be sure to switch the CPU to Z80 mode on MSXturboR.

finally: start AUTOEXEC.BAS in basic and enjoy...
