 Hello.  I was going to give the Director 4 game "The Dark Eye" a test try
 since you've now progressed that far with Director engine development. I
 installed the game to my hard drive and the game was recognized by Scumm
 and added to my games list using the above development build. When I START
 the game, I get the typical Warning/Start Anyway pop-up message ... but
 that is then followed by the following pop-up message : "The dark eye can
 not locate its data files.  Please insert the dark eye CD and try again"
 Can you tell me  if the games data files need to be copied into the game
 directory and, if so, which files need to be copied in...?

 The following info. is produced when starting the game :

 User picked target 'darkeye-win' (engine ID 'director', game ID
 'darkeye')...
