Re: DOSBox video speed

Then raise a little higher than 2500 until it IS at a comfortable pace for your own pickiness. I realize that I'm being very nick picky, yes I realize this. I'm not expecting any magic cures or anything. I'm simply trying to point out that it doesn't emulate VGA 100%. I know this, you know this. …

Re: DOSBox video speed

you answered your own question Laughing Out Loud, to throttle down speed you lower the cpu cycles. Hah! Hah! Hah! Real funny! Did you even watch the videos? :blah: The screen transitions ARE NOT supposed to move that fast!!! If I put the CPU cycles at 2500, the GAME RUNS AT SNAIL PACE!!! The games …

But I upgraded the video card to a GeForce FX 5900 AGP (all the latest drivers), which I thought was at least formidable. I've also seen a video of the QG2 Intro on YouTube and the up and down scrolling feature …

Re: DosBox Wish List

Your cycles are set too high. You just need to turn down your cycles. What and play at the speed of a slow 286? These games were designed with a 486 in mind, and setting cycles at less than 3000 is too painfully slow to be worth the trouble. The screen transitions are a minor thing I can put up …

DOSBox video speed

I am trying to get smoother and slower screen scrolling transitions in Sierra games. I just compared QG1VGA and QG2 in DOSBox on my P4 machine to my 500MHz P3 Win98 machine (without turbo adjustment or patches) and had to set the DOSBox CPU cycles at 2800 to get the same speed/smoothness as the P3. …
