Error help

[Gamer-pro777]

I know this might sound easy for the people who have gotten the Zc program to work its just that i cant do it for some reason and when I try to load 1st.qst anyway i can it can and always says error: File Cannot be opened.

And this goes along with the demo quest as well.

here are the steps I did to load the Zc quest programs.

1: I set the keys to the way i want them
2: I Entered a name, {Error: Internal error}
3: I pushed A two times to go to the load screen,
4:I tried to load 1st.qst
5: I pressed ok
6:Tried to push ok again but the button was blank and it sayed{error file cannot be opened.}


Is there anything wrong with that?

Usually, 1st.qst is loaded automatically when you register a new name. Just register the name, then hit enter on that name. ^_^

To start a 2nd.qst file, just register the name ZELDA as your name. And to start a 3rd.qst file, register ALPHA. Simple as that. :p

The way you're doing it, is how you start a custom quest that someone else made.

I'm having the same problem with every version after 1.00. If it's any help, ZQuest won't run due to a decryption error.

How to get Zelda Classic running on your pc

make sure you have all the files.

[Link-tastic]

I've got every file there is, unless there's something I need that's not to be found here.

so did you follow what the page I linked to said?
If so it should work, if not see if you have things running in the background, like a virus scanner, and turn them off and try again.

Thanks, I didn't see the link. Apparently I'm missing:

agsetup.exe , zc192b182d.exe , zc192b182s.exe
zc192b182w.exe , zelda.exe , zquest.exe

Are these necessary, and where can I get them?

What version are you trying to use?
What os do you have, windows 98? XP?

190 (and before) is a DOS ap so it really doesn't work in XP.

The files above you don't need to run, the first (agsetup) allows you to tweak sounds and such, the next three are self extracting exe's that give you the base exe files for the program, so if you have them (like zquest-w.exe) then you don't need them, and the last 2 are the DOS files, which you won't need unless you are trying to run it in DOS.

The link I supplied gives a step by step as to what to do, like opening zquest-w.exe first and playing a midi so it will write you an ag.cfg file

If you have all the files other then what you mentioned you didn't have then go to the folder and double click on zquest-w.exe and see what happens.

I double-clicked zquest-w.exe, the screen blacked out for a few seconds, and then returned to the desktop and offered to send an error report.

I'm running 1.92 beta 183 on XP.

sounds like an allegro dll problem.
do you have alleg41.dll ?
if so is it about 499 kb in size, just curious if it's the same one I have.
