Hi,
Sorry if this has been covered before, but would someone mind explaining to me what the differences are between the four choices for the "core" setting in the config file of DOSBOX?
First of all, what is the "core?" It sounds important, but that's all I know. Second, what performance differences should I be looking for when experimenting with them. Should one perform better then the others in certain situations?
I'm also not to clear on what the "output" types do. I have an old nvidia card. Should I use opengl then? Is one choice generally more stable or one higher performing than the others?
I'm asking because I'm trying to run Quest for Glory 4 and Space Quest 4, which worked great under 0.61, but both crash my system under 0.63. I know I could revert to 0.61, but I think maybe I can get this to work, and so far I'm not having much luck.
Thanks in advance, and again I'm sorry if this is newbie stuff I'm asking. I assure you that I did look in the wikipedia, the readme, and various FAQs before posting.
