Photoplay 2004 Dongle-less Photoplayer 12/25/16 (Sun) 11:58:16 c814d6 No.1919

Bootable iso. Remember find-it and shanghai?

No dongle on lpt1 required.

Runs in VMware / PCem and Dosbox as well.

Needs a damn touchscreen on com3?

You need to be familiar with ms-dos as this uses a clone PTS-DOS system.

Boot from the cd and use pqdi to restore the image to a 2.1GB HDD in VMware. Needs com1/com2/com3(?).

After restoring the image, boot again from the iso.

Go to C:

Edit config.pts to get rid of the logo so you can see what pts-dos is doing. Edit autopts.bat to stop it loading menu. Use c:\ptsdos\mouse to get around the touchscreen warning and out of the bootloop.

Someone should figure out what the exe wants for touchscreen data. It does seem to detect mouse, but not register any clicks..

S is service menu.

Space drops to dos if you can get into the menu or a game.

Works fine on real hardware. ELO 2100 touchscreen serial is used, along with ESS 1688 sound card.

Whoa shit, now that's something unexpected. Thanks for sharing OP! So it absolutely does not work on a regular PC?

It needs ELO 2100 touchscreen on com3 to continue past this warning screen. I am debugging it.

I will be a dream if we see all Photoplay games on Windows for the first time at home :)

Thanks you saved my PhotoPlay, I restored the image to a dvd (did not care about the free space) . Booted from the DVD in an old Pentium4 PC with an old 160GB Hdisk attached, restored the Ghost image to the Hdisk (only 1,1GB used, 8GB partition created by Ghost), put it back in the Photoplay, set bios to LBA → et voila, it is running again!!, thank you very much. BTW: My Photoplay does not have a donge, and used the exact 2004 IGO version before it crashed.
