My version (2023-10-09 22:21)

JAMEZ

The version I had bought some decades ago didn't worked out-of-the-box, but after some tweaks to the batch file, everything works. Good luck!

Worms in 0.74-3 (2023-08-21 21:06)

Works fine with all sounds!
If you want to have it with all the sounds you have to:
1. Install any app (I used DEAMON Tools Lite) that can make a MDX file and make a copy of your cd as the MDX type, not an ISO! It is very important if you want to have all sounds i.e main theme and in game "music".
2. Run DAEMON Tools and mount a virtual cd with the MDX file.
3. Run DosBox and type mount c c:
4. Next mount (type mount x x: -t cdrom) the MDX file as a virtual cd rom and run setup to install game in c:WORMS
5. Change your drive to c:WORMS and type WORMS and hit Enter.
Enjoy the game! But if you have any problems with the game try to change some settings in DosBox. Some useful tips are in other comments below.

Works fine 0.74 with speech, music and movies (2012-01-06 10:12)

pykman

Runs fine o 0.74 with bin/cue disc image files. In dosbox.conf I have to change output value from ddraw to opengl for proper wind bar display.

Works fine with Movies and Music with Dosbox 0.73 (2009-06-22 16:22)

barbarian_brother

With Dosbox 0.73 musics play fine (they already were fine with Dosbox 0.72) But the great enhancement is that cinematics are no more choppy...

Works fine including in-game music (2008-08-16 14:16)

mccalli

Works fine including in-game music. Many tools seem to create cue files that DOSBox doesn't like - I used the free version IsoBuster under XP to get a working file.

DOSBox 0.72 under OS X is the version I'm running Worms 1 under. Being on OS X, I also ran IsoBuster using a VMware image of XP - no problems there either.

100% working in dosbox 0.65(no music tho..) (2007-02-20 03:49)

ObiKenobi_1

Here are the instructions for 0.65 :
1.mount the cd or backup the entire cd in a directory and mount it as the cdrom drive.
2.install to hard drive
3.select automatic sound card detection , let setup choose the best soundcard(should choose gravis ultrasound)
4. DO NOT USE dos32a, use the good old fashioned dos4gw
5 core=dynamic

Pros: the game runs at full speed with very low cycles(like 8k to 10k), you can hear sfx
Cons: No music during gameplay (still couldn't fix it :( )

Working in 0.65 (2006-07-21 12:27)

mako

Works in 0.65 except for the music.
Install Worms in Dos Box, from the (mounted) CD, to get a correct setup.cfg. You can also copy all files from the CD to your harddisk, mount that directory as a CD and install from there.

How to get Worms running under WinXP:

o Install DosBox0.63
o Choose Start->All Programs->DosBox-0.63->DosBox.conf (opens in notepad)
o Set "fullscreen=true" in the [sdl] section
o Set "cycles=10000" in the [cpu] section
o Set "core=full" in the [cpu] section
o Choose Start->All Programs->DosBox-0.63->DosBox
o Insert Worms CD-ROM
o type "mount c c:\" at the dosbox prompt
o type "mount x x:\ -t cdrom" at the dosbox prompt where x is the drive letter of your cdrom drive
o Change to your cdrom drive by typing "x:" where x is the drive letter of your cdrom drive
o Type "setup" to install worms on c: drive. Let setup choose your soundcard and select "Save settings and exit setup" to return to prompt
o Type "worms" to start game
o Note there's a small delay (approx 10 secs) when it loads the third movie.
o Select "Worm Options"
o Select "Video Options"
o Set "Full motion video" to "Off"
o Set "Double Buffered Screen" to "On"
o Play the game!

Dos Game Player

It has been a known problem that after you ahve run setup NOT in DOSBox and start the game in DOSBox it will load the DOS/4GW (see a search for Rational Systems) then it will say Please run Setup (or something like that).

it isn't running (2004-06-25 02:29)

freemaan

On my Athlon XP machine always freeze at DOS4GW.

get it running (2003-11-01 22:44)

frip

If you mount any dir as a cdrom them run it works (including double buffering) :) Im giving this 75% tonight - very tired & cant get the music to play, will look into it another time.
