#LucasArts Games
2 messages in this thread
All,
I have been trying to install soom LucasArts games on my hard drive without
much luck. The games are: Loom, Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade, Maniac
Mansion, and Zak McKracken. The problem is that they are all supposed to be
hard drive installable but the instructions tell you to drag and drop the
program icon and a "Rooms" icon from the first disk onto the new drawer on your
hard drive and then to drag the "Rooms" icon from the other disks onto the same
new drawer. With all of the "Rooms" icons called the same thing the system
won't copy the files and there are no instructions telling you whether to
rename the other "Rooms" to something else or to make some assigns or to do
something else.
If anyone has these successfully installed these on thier hard drive I would
appreciate any info about the installation.
Thanks, Pete.

Hi Pete,
>With all of the "Rooms" icons called the same thing the system won't copy the
files<
With FILES the system asks if you want to overwrite the existing files, but how
do you want to overwrite a drawer? It would be unlogical, because the contens
of the drawer would be lost. $^)
What you need to do, you need to 'open' the ROOM drawer of the floppy disk, be
shure that you have 'show all files' selected in the WB-Menu, select all files
(this is a WB-Menu option), hold the shift-key and then drag all the files in
one go to the ROOM drawer on your HD.
When you have done this, all files from the "Rooms" of your different floppy
disks are in the ONE "Rooms" drawer of your Hard Disk.
