A classic adventure for the Spanish people, in both Amstrad and PC versions. The last one was dissapeared for a long time, until october 2010, when we uploaded it, being available for first time in Internet.
Guide to load correctly the PC MS-DOS version of the game:
1. COPY PCDOS31.IMA, ACEPS.IMA, CAFAX.IMA to the folder where the executable of DosBox is installed (DOSBOX.EXE).
2. RUN DOSBOX.EXE making double clicking on the icon.
3. Whe Z> (or similar) appears type exactly:
BOOT PCDOS31.IMA CAFAX.IMA ACEPS.IMA and press [ENTER]
4. You'll see it loading and after a few seconds it will ask for Vdisk (Yes / No). It isn't important if you answer Yes or No (press N). Then it will ask for time and date (press [ENTER] in all cases). After a couple or three more messages, it puts A>.
5. Now click once [CTRL] [F4] (to change PCDOS31 to CAFAX disk). Now write CAFAX and press [Enter].
6. After a few seconds it asks you to insert the ACEPS disk. At this point click once [CTRL] [F4] (to change CAFAX to ACEPS disk) and press [Enter] to accept.
6. After 10-15 seconds, you'll see another message asking you CAFAX DISC. Now press the [CTRL] [F4] (to change ACEPS to CAFAX disk) and again [ENTER].
7. Soon you'll see the pyramids. Press [ENTER].
8. After a pair of successive loading screens you could play.
Notes:
A. Every time you restart the game, it asks you ACEPS and CAFAX disk, so you have to press again the combination [CTRL] [F4] one or two times depending on the prompted disc, and then [Enter] to confirm (see paragraphs 5 and 6 above).
B. To give you a clue, in the window attached to the DosBox one, every time you press CTRL F4 it will update you what is in the disk drive 0 (unit A) and which in the disk 1 (Unit B) on a cyclical basis. El Enigma de Aceps under DosBox only works with the drive (disk 0), so the title corresponding to 0 is the disk you have inserted. You have to have clear what disk have you inserted.
