More information would be helpful, like what zip format, for what platform and what are the file types in the archive, what emulator, and what is giving the error, Launchbox or the emulator. Just saying "my game doesnt work" wont help people to troubleshoot it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russell18 Posted March 19, 2019 Author Share Posted March 19, 2019 I get this exact same error. But I tried the steps may be I am doing something wrong. I am using Dosbox. But I have no idea what is the file type inside the archive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombeaver Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 DOSBox Daum supports zipped games. Normal DOSBox does not. It adds some additional complications, however, and some games don't work correctly. Check out this post: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
