Caesar Help
Caesar's original requirements:
Installation Problems
Before Impressions was disbanded, they stopped providing technical support for Caesar
I, since the game was re-released as freeware.
- Run "INSTALL.EXE" (install program will create a directory and unpack all the game files into
it. The default directory is "C:\Caesar".
- Open the game directory and run "SETUP.EXE" to configure your hardware.
- Run "CAESAR.BAT" to play the game. (You need caesar.bat to start it. The batch file starts the
executable and sets the parameters).

NOTE: |
The game can run in Windows 9x with no problems, but as always, if you encounter problems in Windows
on your system -- try it in pure DOS or in DOSBox.

Audio Problems
Audio problems are common in the later Sierra DOS SCI games. There's no single fix for all these games. If
there a Windows version you can try it, first.
Problem - Poor Quality / No Sound (Win9x and XP):
The game has no sound or the music is of poor quality.
Solution 1 (preferred):
Play the game in DOSBox. It also will work
with the MT-32 sound module, if you are fortunate to have one.
Solution 2:
Use VDMSound. The game work well with
VDMSound. The sound will be as good as your audio hardware, and as with DOSBox, it works with the MT-32 sound
module.
Solution 3 (DOS/Win9x):
Install DOS drivers for your soundcard. Without DOS drivers installed you won't have sound in a DOS window
in Windows 9x. If you can't find DOS drivers for your soundcard, there is an alpha
(developmental) version of VDMS that you can try.
