Hiya, I've recently got hold of a copy of MC1 and downloaded DOSBox to run it. I have got it to run fine in the small DOSBox windows - thanks to some very helpful comments on an earlier thread, Thank you - but when I try and put it too full screen several problem develop:
- When I get hit, and the program puts a red tint onto the screen evrything slows way way down.
- The red tint doesn't go away until you turn so that the program has to "recalculate the colour of that part of the screen - ie. the sky area of the screen will stay tinted red until I look at the ground.
- Whenever it tries to load anything - intro to the game, the start of a level, when you press Space bar to end a level, etc - the game siezes up, the screen gradually fades to blackness and notying happens, but if you then return to small screen mode, the game carries on with out any fuss - ie. it hasn't actually crashed, it just isn't displaying it properly in full screen mode.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
