In the target box, edit the end of the path so it looks: >>> "<install dir>\ScummVM\scummvm.exe" -c "<install dir>\sword1.ini" >>> -d0 -b 4 sword1 > > (So basically just adding) -d0 -b 4 (before sword1) In the Target box it says: "The Shadow of the Templars\sword1.ini" sword1" so am I supposed to type "Scumm\M|scummvm.exe -d|sword.ini in there. And where exactly am I supposed to type -d0 -b4? you say before sword 1. do you mean after -d ? its getting too complicated and I am not sure this will work. It doesn't match what you said above. BTW, I installed it in D directory. my root drive is D - its a long story why it is D, but it works ok for now till I do some changes on my hard drive. It would have nothing to do with my problem with BS. I have several games on D drive and they all work fine. In the "Start in" box it says : "D:\Program Files\GOG.com\Broken Sword - The Shadow of the Templars\ScummVM\" > The bigger question though is why is it crashing in the first place.
