Okay, so far I managed to install the game with otvdm but when I start the game in DxWnd I get an error message "New GFXsurface failed". Tried a couple of settings but it won't get past it. 🙁

Custom resolution

I'm trying to get Zuma's Revenge running in 4:3 on my 2560x1080 monitor but none of the scaling options seem to work so I get a stretched screen. I can get 4:3 whenever I choose 1280x1024 but it looks kind of bad so I wonder if it's possible to choose 1440x1080 resolution some way.

Thanks gonna try installing it with otvdm and running it with DxWnd. You know you can downclock cycles in DxWnd so it should be capable to set the right speed with some trial and error.

The cd-rom doesn't even want to install. Tried copying the files directly to the harddrive but a10sim.exe or shell.exe don't do anything, tried DxWnd and dgVoodoo 2 but no cigar. Probably need to try it in a VM or something. 😒

I was thinking about this some time ago when I watched the intro of A.I.M. 2: Clan Wars. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzyGhlpH1ks In which you see vegetation attack a glider aircraft, which does not happen in the game as vegetation is entirely non interactive in the game. It's still a very fun …

Well, I got the problem solved. Apparently my keyboard is faulty, especially the F9 key. Will try to give it a clean. Hah, that's funny. Sometimes it's the most basic things. Yeah, I never had that before. The keyboard was clean and I also checked the batteries which are full (just below 1.5V. But …

Hi, I'm trying to get my original TIE Fighter Collector's CD-ROM to work in Dosbox. At first everything appears to be working but then I noticed that pressing keys like F9 and others need several presses before they register, making the game as good as unplayable. :( I've tried lowering cycles to …

Hi, I have this game called Tank Combat from City Interactive, while it works fine as is the graphics resolution is rather low. So I thought to give it some dgVoodoo sause to spice up the graphics so to speak. 😋 It works but the mouse cursor seems missaligned or something but I can't operate the …

Hi, The reason I want the Windows version of EF2000 is because I remember it to have a smoother framerate than the dos version and also with a little luck I might be able to pump up the resolution with the use of dgVoodoo 2. After I managed to succesfully install it using the InstallShield 3 method …

Can be anything from connectors or cards not being properly seated to defective components. My first suspect would be the powersupply, if you have a multimeter you can check if you get good voltages on the motherboard.

Hi Dege, With DxWnd only I can race but with dgVoodoo I only have menu's and it crashes upon loading a race. But last time I tried it the game wouldn't even start with or without dgVoodoo. I don't know what I'm doing wrong but it seems this game just doesn't wants to be played, 🤣.

Hello, I almost have this game working, well it sort of works in DxWnd (ver. 2.05.86) but the menu's have horrible mouse trails and race performance isn't as good as it should (around 20 fps and glitching UI). So I tried it in combination with dgVoodoo2 (ver. 2.78.2) and the menu's now work …
