FLYING CORPS GOLD Windows 7

[Armistel 2]

Good morning

 

The game FLYING CORPS GOLD.

 

and not been able to make it work, installed it without problem thanks to installer edition of Dinamic Multimedia.

 

But then the game does not start (16-bit application says not supported), and compatibilities and tested all options and I can not make it work

 

And with vmware it does not work in Windows XP

 

It would be a pity that donot can play only flight simulator WW1 :(

From your writing I'm guessing the game is 16-bit game, which will not work under 64-bit Windows no matter what you do. 

At that point virtual machines are basically only way to play the game, though I personally have had really bad luck with those. Because the game is that old, I would almost try with Windows 98 or 95 instead of XP though. 

 

Created article for the game, so information found can be added directly: http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Flying_Corps

Maybe you can play using DOSBOX? although I will not do is but it may well be the only option for now.

 

I forgot to mention that also use the trick of explore.exe in the .bat

 

Maybe in future GOG do

The latest patches have a 32-bit executable (WINFLY.EXE). That page also has a Windows XP fix which might help.

 

If all else fails you could install the DOS version in DOSBox (if your release includes the DOS version).
