I don't understand. OK, this is what I just did under DOSBox using the KQ-collection version, with CD2 in the drive and no KQ6 file already copied on my hard drive.

Z:\> mount c c:\
Z:\> mount d d:/ -t cdrom -usecd 0 -ioctl
Z:\> d:
D:\> install6 -f

Then install on C, C:\SIERRA\KQ6CD\, choose devices, large install.
I'm returned to C:\Sierra

C:\SIERRA> cd kq6cd
C:\SIERRA\KQ6CD> sierra

And that's it, it works, with voices, videos and all (finding them on the CD). Though, as I said, it might be more complicated for the RWA version and you may have to edit RESOURCE.CFG to point at the right folder for synch, audio and movieDir. And, onc again, please check that you're installing from the right CD and folder.

Please just try that. Even if the paths in RESOURCE.CFG are wrong, the game should launch (without voices and videos). Your error message about a missing resource.000 is really odd. If you still get it after trying what I have just described, please post the contents of your resource.cfg and those of your game folder (on the hard drive).

I'm a very stubborn person and I'm certainly not giving up now that I've checked that my method works. Unless you get tired of it, of course. :)
