Who gives a shit? Release the fucking game and stop fucking around 3drealms. I hate "teasers", screenshots, fake ass pics and marketing speak.....and decade + long development times. After this long we should get the damn for free with an apology from the damn devs. Stop treating us like we should …

P.S. Fast computer + DOSBox = legacy gaming awesomeness. This man speaks the truth. For me I can play all my games from all different ages on one PC, as opposed to having several DOS machines. For instance the one you mentioned will run several games way too fast at 100mhz, while at the same time …

It seems that way to me. Didn't you hear about the case where they forced some grandma to pay because her grandson downloaded like a dozen songs at her house one time? Or the other case where someone had to pay a few hundred bucks per song? I don't doubt the RIAA is fighting a losing battle, but it …

Judging by the fact that people use 1280x1024 instead of 1024x768 for quite some time I expected to get 100% image coverage on that resolution in dosbox also. That doesn't change the fact that it's a 5:4 ratio. Thank you for very fast reply but on my previous post I forgot to mention that it is …

I don't think it has a cryptic name at all. I have Vista and I've never heard of this. …

£ 6,95 = € 9,6238 = USD 14,1085 = CAD 14,1861 (i'm from Europe, so i'm using "," instead of ".") Not cheap? Vegas isn't even that old, at my local Ebgames it's still full price. Theres also games that are even newer on that website for less. I sincerely doubt these are the deals of the century, …

Longshot - maybe the game isn't smart enough to check the variable. Maybe it needs there to be a config.sys with this info in it. Try putting a config.sys files with the line FILES=100 in the root of your games folder (wherever you mounted "c:" as in dosbox) and see if the install shuts up. I've …

Remember though the key areas to test are: -second screen before the lighthouse -hardware store -inside gift shop -forest / woods -blacksmith (closeup shot, from far away it's midi) There are still many areas that will play midi.

OK. Heres the thing. I don't have to remember; as I stated in the original post I can play the actual tracks in WMP and see exactly what they should sound like........then in the actual game I can hear the same track...but in an extremely low quality crackling version of MIDI. As I said, the only …

Um, thats how it is. The game uses CD music for certain scenes (2nd screen at the lighthouse, hardware store, forests) and uses midi for the rest. There wasn't enough space on the CD to include tracks for everything, so they mixed and matched them. That is not true. I know from playing the game …

No he's saying to change the resolution/scalers in the conf to make it the size of your screen. In other set it to match your windows desktop resolution. When you hit alt enter it does this? Have you tried disabling NOD for a second to test it?
