Tie Fighter in DosBox

Prerequesites

  • Game: Tie Fighter (Gold Collectors Edition CD)
  • This will work on most versions of Windsows (XP, Vista, Windows 7) & Mac OS X (Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard)
  • Game CD Required

Key configuration steps

  • Step 1 - USB Joystick Required
  • Step 2 - Create a directory to serve as the virtual C drive during your DOSBox session. I usually just create a directory named ‘dos’ and stick it in the root folder of my hard drive. You can stash the folder in your user profile, of course, but typing C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\Dos every time you want to play TIE Fighter rapidly gets tiresome.
  • Step 3 - Downlowd and Install DosBox
  • Step 4 - Open the DosBox Options file to make some simple changes:
    • Run DoxBox Full Screen
    • Add the following Quick Start commands
      • mount c c:\dos
      • mount d d:\ -t cdrom
      • c:\
  • Step 5 - Run DocBox. You will see a C:\ prompt.
  • Step 6 - Install Tie Fighter. Use 'D:\' then 'Instal' without the “'”
  • Step 7 - To play Tie Fighter, type 'CD TIECD' then 'TIE' (without the “'”) at the C:\ prompt.
