I've got it running, the ISO version. Here are the lines you need to add at the end of your DOSBox config file:

mount c d:\dos\
imgmount d d:\dosgames\cavwar.cue -t cdrom

Then you can start DOSBox, enter command "d:", then "install" (install.exe on the CD), let it install to "C:\cavewars\", enter command "c:", then "cd cavewars", "setup" where you let it detect the DOSBox soundcard, and finally after saving that you can enter "cavehigh" to start the game.

After the installation is complete, you can add these lines (after imgmount...) to make CaveWars start automatically with DOSBox:

c:
cd cavewars
cavehigh

Now it should work, with music. Don't forget to change the "d:\dos\" folder according to what you use.

Try making an iso-file loading it from Deamontools

I remember being terrible at this game growing up.

I'm playing this game using Dos Box and it works with no problems at all . I don't seem to have music though just the odd low moaning sound

I've got original game . It works only when installation is proceeded from CD-ROM . The exe file which has been installed on your HD invokes to CDROM drive when game starts and also during the game , when music is going to change .Assuming it - installator CD- disc must be in your optic drive permanently .

I installed the game through D-Fend Reloaded as` reccomended, but it crashes after the first window, before I can choose my race. Any ideas what I've done wrong or is the file corrupted?

I tried installing it, I patched it, says I need a cd. Where's the cd?
