RAPTOR: Call of the Shadows
-- In Windows XP could not be played with DosBox 0.72 but was running very well with VDMSound 2.1.
Tweaking different configurations didnt help.

please be more precise on what is happening and did you install the game from within dosbox?
No, didnt install it from within dosbox. I had a self-extracting file which i installed to the c: drive.
i mounted c: and executed the exe from within dosbox. The game crashed without showing the initial Apogee screen. I could not read the error messages as they are too faint to be read.
Thanks
Works fine here, so get the original and not some self-extracting whatnot.
Mine is original. I have upgraded it to version 1.2.
I could play raptor now since i edited dosbox.conf.

cycles=2500
But with full detail and sounds on, the game's a bit sluggish.
I have no idea of "cycles". What is the minimum and max or optimal.
How to optimize game play. Suggestions please.
Since i am playing Prince2 at the same time i have to consider that while editing dosbox.conf.
Thanks
Use a clean dosbox.conf, that is cycles=auto
With cycles=auto, i can play Prince2 but Raptor crashes after the opening screen.

Raptor should run fine at something like ~15000.
thanks a zillion for that input. Will try that next time i play. thanks
