Chill Manor

  • Files copied from CD matching with Redump: Chill Manor (USA)
  • Normally runs from the CD with only a few files installed, but it seems to work with all files extracted if the right paths are in CHILL.BAT, DIG.INI, and MDI.INI
  • Since those 3 files can vary, I left them out of the DOSZ. They can be generated at any time with the right paths by running INSTALL.EXE. This also allows DoDAT to build directly from the disc image without any embedded data
  • The installed files won't work in C:\, so they're in the default C:\CHILL
  • The game seems to require running indirectly with the installed BAT file, not directly with the EXE
  • Note that the empty SAVE folder must exist, or it seems saves won't write
  • The game sometimes crashed when hitting Enter too quickly at "The Hall of the Ancients" screen before the first level, but I can't reproduce it anymore and don't know if any setting would prevent it
  • Installation variant added

DOSC

  • Sound Blaster 16 and other config, BAT file for running the game
  • cpu_max_year: 1996 limits the game speed. Without it, turning in-game is too fast (similar to I.M. Meen, this game's predecessor)
  • input_directmouse is enabled, benefits the mouse cursor
  • Auto start
  • General MIDI option
