The BAT files will automatically detect the game and you don't have to specify the directory parameter at all.
By doing so you don't have to copy any extra stuff from the CD to the HD. |
Most likely your system will work and be faster, but I guess you are a batch file specialist from the old DOS age? Unfortunately I have only good DOS v.5.0 knowledge, also my big DOS manual from the 80s is taking dust in my shelve
But for people who don't have this knowledge I think it's better to go with my description above to avoid unpleasant errors, because if you do it wrong when updating, you will not see it immediately while playing the game, and you will miss the new interesting game features without knowing it
