Prophecy I - The Viking Child - Start the DOSBOX winodws and nothing more

[granot.moshe]

Hi,

When I press PLAY the DOSBOX opens and that's it. nothing happens.
In other games with DOSBOX there is no problem.
Has anyone had this problem with this game?

thanks,
Moshe

This game is published with broken configuration.
There is a fix.

1) You must open the folder where the game is installed ".../Prophecy I - The Viking Child" (Right click on the game in your Steam library and select "Properties" >"Local files" > "Browse...")
2) Open folder "Conf". There is a file "viking.cfg"
3) Copy that file to root folder ".../Prophecy I - The Viking Child" where "dosbox.exe" is placed.
4) RENAME new file (rename with an extension !!) "viking.cfg" to "dosbox.conf"
5) Open and EDIT that file "dosbox.conf" with notepad.
Find and replace string
mount c: .
to
mount c: .\DOS

Now the game should work.

In the local directory "Prophecy I - The Viking Child" with game files, create file "dosbox.conf".
