Hey all! Does anyone have this GB up and working? I'm having a lot of problems getting it to run games and change directories. I've tried changing paths and forwarding the games in the list to exe's without the need for an emu but I can't get it to work. Any help would be most appreciated!

It's not a GameBase i have used before.

I think it could be down to the age of the interpreter WinFrotz.exe (1999).
try this updated version...
http://www.davidkinder.co.uk/frotz.html
and load some interpreter adventure data files manually (.z?,.z6,.z7,.z8).

The fully automated installation of the 35 original games from Infocom Universe are dated (2005).
All these are packed with the old 1999 version of WinFrotz.
I guess these would have problems in anything newer than WinXP 32bit.

If Seiya wants to update the GameBase? :wink:
I have extracted all the "Z#" files from the installers so they can be loaded into the new Frotz version.

Infocom GameBase update.
All Adventure files unpacked and interpreters setup as Emulators.
