Running Ken's Labyrinth

Post by Abashi76 »

I can't get my computer to run Ken's Labyrinth or its level editor. Is it possible for me to do this?

Remember that Ken's Labyrinth is a DOS program, so you will most likely need DOSBox to run it. Otherwise, LAB3D/SDL may be of use, a full Windows/Linux update of Ken's Labyrinth that uses OpenGL.

If neither one of these suggestions helps you, then please give me more information, such as how you're trying to run it, where you got it from (hint: get it from Ken Silverman's own website, as it's freeware - do not trust abandonware sites to give you the correct, untouched files!), and what error messages (if any) you're getting.

Ken's Labyrinth still wrecks DOSbox officially btw fyi (crazy soundblaster code blows it up). LAB3DSDL is very much advised

There's a fix for Ken's Labyrinth as seen here that has a fix for the soundblaster issue. Tested it on DOSBox and it works. :shrug:
