Tips for getting the IIgs version of Destiny Knight running

Post by jrodman »

I struggled to get the IIgs version of Bard's Tale 2 working right recently.
A collection of links or anything on the topic with Bard's Tale specific notes would be welcome.

Personally I found that Kegs was mostly unmaintained and on Sweet 16 (I'm on a Mac at the moment) the game had all kinds of unpleasant stuttering, including hangs while getting healed at the temples.

Years later:

MESS handles the IIgs pretty flawlessly. There's even some info on how to get it going in the pcgames wiki:

Though note that with the current revision of MESS/etc you need an apple 2e rom also, as mentioned http://www.gog.com/forum/the_bards_tale ... tive/post7
