Lem3D CD Letter Drive Problem

(1/4) > >>

DragonsLover:
Ok, I don't have the original Lem3D CD but I did get the CD soundtracks and put them into an image CD file and running it using Daemon Tools. The problem is that Lemmings3D considers the drive D as the CD drive. But the drive D is a partition of the hard disk and it's on that drive I put Lem3D! How can I tell Lemmings3D to use drive K instead (I know, I have a lot of drives ;P)? Is it possible though?

Mr. K:
Apart from hacking the game, I don't think there's any way... I've never had trouble using a different drive though. Not for CD Audio anyway.

Just wondering, are you running Lem3D directly or in DOSBox?

Mr. K:
If you're running it in DosBox, I'd advise against that... although you could also then set your CD drive letter properly that way if you want...

Lem3D runs fine under DOSBox on my machine, although I'm not using the version with the audio CD.  DOSBox also lets you mount any path as a drive and assign it any drive letter, so you can easily do something like mount d k:\ -t cdrom to map your k: CD-ROM drive to drive letter D for DOSBox.

I kinda doubt that Lem3D really only looks at a fixed drive letter for the audio CD, it's possible maybe it's because you're using Daemon Tools to emulate a CD-ROM drive and maybe DOS programs like Lem3D won't see such emulated drives when run directly.
