ParticipantHi
When I try to run Goldrush in DOS it works fine except the text in the text boxes is just a blur of black dots which can’t be read. Anyone know how to fix this?
Also is the limited edition for DOS? Would you post to Australia if the postage was paid? Thanks

ParticipantA person told me about this problem (and it might be you as well!!!) however although i have played some of it in Dosbox, i saw nothing like what you describe!!

ParticipantI’m sure that Carol MacNeill who handles the Gold Rush orders from their website http://www.softwarefarm.com) would ship internationally (and of course the postage charge would be more).
I don’t know about this problem. It could be caused by a corrupt game. I seem to recall hearing about or seeing this problem before as well, but I don’t remember the details anymore either.

ParticipantThis is a common problem with running AGI games with some modern Graphics cards. ther are three ways around this. Try running the game with the -s -v switches. If this does not work for you, you can run the game with another interpreter, such as NAGI:

The game will also easily run in an emulator like DOSBox:
