Getting Started

This guide walks you through getting DttR running with 102 Dalmatians: Puppies to the Rescue.

Downloading DttR

Download the build of DttR that matches your needs:

  • Vanilla is the normal build and does not allow the installation of game modifications. This is the only build allowed in speedruns.
  • Modding is the build that's required to load and run third-party modifications.

Extract the archive wherever you'd like and then run dttr.exe.

Loading the Game Files

DttR should open a prompt asking for the original game files:

DttR can find the game files from a disc, an installed copy, or an ISO. Choose the method that matches your setup.

The Open Disc ... buttons will only show if DttR detects an inserted/mounted disc containing the original game files. This includes official retail copies and mounted disc images.

Insert the original 102 Dalmatians: Puppies to the Rescue CD, then select the disc.

You're done!

If everything worked, the game should pop up in a window. If the game crashes or doesn't pop up, take a look at the troubleshooting page.
