  • Save and exit "dosbox.conf".

Install on a old character ?

You can use your old savegame with DaggerfallSetup. Most of contents won't alter your savegame. However, I commend to finish/cancel all your actives secondary quests before installing quest fixes.

If you want uninstall some contents, it's the same :

  • Finish/Cancel your secondary quests before if you want uncheck a quest fixe or a Quest Pack.
  • If you use Dagskill, you need to keep it if your stats are upper 100%.
  • If you use a translation, some words can remain in your savegame.

And, the most important : do a back up of your save, just in case.

Known bugs

Black screen after introduction video

If you get a Black screen after skipping the introduction video with the mouse, type ALT + ENTER for go in Windowed mode and ALT + ENTER again for return to fullscreen mode.
If you want skip the Introduction video, use Space or Escape but not the mouse for avoid this problem.
