Problems w. XP: dos/batch/delevent Remove this text

Hi.

As WinXP doesn't support Dos, a lot of Civ2 scenarios/modpacks do not work correctly (batch files, delevents, mainly).

I am (I think) able to get around this by manually doing what the batch file says to do... Is there an (easy) way to batch a .txt file in WinXP?

However, I am not sure about delevent.exe....what exactly does it do? Can I do whatever it is manually?

Thanks.

Fb

p.s. I already tried installing a dos simulation shell...it didn't work

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

I think you will get a better reply to this in the scenario forum (hint to moderator).

I think some scenarios have multiple events files, so perhaps delevent.exe deletes one event file so that the player can move to the next part of the scenario.
