Installation
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
No actual installation, just for Saved Games, similar to Creature
Crunch. I think there is a Setup or Installation EXE file. To make
a folder for the game.


If you're new to it like I am then you can use a similar Batch file:

: batch file
multires.exe /640,480,32
C:\DRBRAIN3.EXE
multires.exe /restore

Of course, change the Drive where the EXE is to fit your system.

oh another thing 2 add i click on the .img file and it trys 2 open in quicktime but doesnt it says a suitable graphics importer could not be found??? mayb this will help

use wordpad and save it as a .bat instead of .txt?

[stocky]

also, an .img file is an image file. mount it as a virtual drive using nero imagedrive, or download daemon tools

k il try then what?? just run it in cmd prmpt

[VZTHUNDER]

no
when you put it in a text file and change the extention to .bat you can run it like a .exe

just double click

if it is an old dos game and the file is a .img file, this is usually an image of a floppy disk.

Similar to a .ISO file of a CD / DVD

try IMG file reader - MagicISO

and then extract the files to your hard disk or floppy / CD.

If it is a dos game and you are running XP the chances of getting the game to run are very slim.
I have a whole CD full of old dos games which don't work anymore. Even if I put MS Dos back on
the computer they still won't run because of the speed of the computers these days.
The old games were never programmed to run at speeds of today.
