Curses.dll File Not Working
« on: May 05, 2018, 12:02:07 pm »

i downloaded several games onto a flash drive and it said i couldn't run them because curses.dll was missing. so i then put the curses.dll file into every one of the game files, and that STILL didn't work. it still says the same thing, that curses.dll is missing, even when it isn't.

We could use more information.  Which games you downloaded, which ones don't work, operating system, etc.

With the game Liberal Crime Squad the filename is "pdcurses.dll".  If renamed as curses.dll, it would count as missing.
