Since this muthafucka is pretty picky with dosbox settings, here are after many trials and errors, my config settings to run the game in the best way, surely this can be useful for someone: get dosbox 0.74 use surface output, use auto or dynamic come, use auto cycles (it will go to max when you …

I found another way: use ctrl-F1, watch where is \ key on your real keyboard, select the key in the dosbox virtual keyboard that is in the same position of your real \ key (it was the button near the 1 key in my pc) and bind that key to another key on the keyb (I used the right arrow key). save and …

Search google for Nglide wrapper website, get the gulikoza dosbox build there (it's a 0.73 era build) and the wrapper. Install it and try with that. It worked very well (at least for me), I have dreams too.

Yep, there is a reason: I use it when I have cdroms with audiotracks, it's the only setting I found to hear audiotracks perfectly. the default setting give me audio interruptions every random seconds (blocksize or prebuffer or too old pc specs who knows). I tried with other ioctl methods too however …

I remember my old ibm ps/1 had a floppy reader who was able to format 720kb floppies (with 1 hole) as 1.4mb. The newest floppy drivers cannot read 720kb formatted as HD (I had to create the hole myself back in the past). And probably they cannot read hd floppies formatted as 720kb too.

Finally, it works now. I abandoned the virtual pc and after a dos installation from zero on an old p200 mmx I installed and played the game there without errors. The game however runs too fast (the game was designed for 386 and 486 cpus), the car is fast as hell! ^_^' but that is another problem. So …

ooook. I tried running it on a real dos environment (an old pentium 200 mmx): well...the game runs fast (just the same way as in dosbox raising the cycles) but it suffers the same framerate drop with a lot of enemies onscreen, and another minor problem with your keyboard missing the keypresses …

cpu utilization of dosbox app is like 2-3% cpu cycles utilized ingame are usually on 3000-8000 range but sometimes for some seconds or in some menus it goes up like crazy to like 20000-25000 or more (O_O) and the more enemies / less framerate is pretty evident. It never happened on that old pc (or …

well...I started with default config settings (framerate is not so fluid) but simply raising cycles ingame using ctrl-f12, the game gained the correct framerate with zero/one enemy but there are frame drops sometimes and with 2 enemies on screen (less fps), 3+ enemies (even less). Then I tried using …

Golden Axe for pc dos has got sluggish behavior (like framerate drop) when 3-more enemies are onscreen. I tried messing up with cores, cpu types and cycles but the problem seems to never be really solved. I remember I had it on a 386sx machine and the framerate was stable and fluid. Any suggestions? …

dosbox + 3dfx patch and installed windows just is not the best solution imho. dosbox got very good results and compatibility with latest versions but just use dgvoogoo or nglide wrappers for windows games.

well buttonwrap it is. anyway with buttonwrap=false you can use the mapper or a program (xpadder) to map the buttons to keys. joysticks in dos only support 4 buttons. That is how dos worked. We can't emulate more because games don't understand them Hummm...well...this is not entirely true because I …
