I'll take that as a no. Or, my computer is a shitty AMD and I don't realise how slow it is... K.

it'll be as slow on an equivelant Intel as well.
Remember, DOSBox is not quite the seamless transparent layer, and it does not take advantage of multi-cores. Not even a core i7 will help you run Armored Fist 2 either.

What's your ramsize? Redneck does not play well with DOSBox's 16mb default, so up that to 48 for less hitching.

Redneck was unrealistically designed and more like 'abuses' BUILD to wild limits with all of its hi-res sprites and such since it wasn't originally designed for such.

Yeah, Readneck is a pretty heavy game, like Witchaven 2 , they run crap on pure DOS too... gog.com has a redneck package, I have bought it and it run well in 640x480 AFAIR, surelly this is a settings issue

Ah cool, thanks guys =)

Yeah, Sydnicate Wars is pretty heavy too from what I remember. And it makes sense Redneck Rampage being a hog, it was released after Blood and by a different development studio than 3D Realms, so they prolly updated it themselves a bit. Blood runs great too, BTW.

I suppose it's bearable, oh well. And my RAM is set to the maximum of 63 (or is it 64?). core=dynamic and cycles=max is what I use for everything, and CPU usage is always between 40-45, so it's not even reaching the full 50 of a dual core. So it's not the issue there.

Yeah maybe i'll try one of the custom builds from those guys, or whatever. I might try it in my XP build too, which is a much lighter install (we all know that XP uses less resources than Vista).

Thanks guys!

It should be noted that every BUILD engine licensee in the 90s never had access to the source code of the engine, ever. Not even 3D Realms. They worked from only .obj files and headers of the engine, though Xatrix got a head start by deriving off the game code Duke3D used.

Maybe, but Ken Silverman did actually "help out" with Redneck Rampage apparently.....

I'm trying to get Redneck Rampage to run on a 1.9Ghz box (Dual core, but that's not important.) with 2 GB RAM. It's the GOG version, but I run Fedora 19, so it's running under wine. (I have the Linux DOSBox installed, but I don't think I can get RR to use that instead of the Windows version because of how it's packaged.) I've run the memory up to 48, and it's still a tad laggy, compared to what it used to be like when I ran it directly under DOS. And, we have a copy running under Windows (Also from GOG.) at a club I belong to, and it runs Just Right. I've already changed the config to read machine=vesa_nolfb because it was completely unplayable until I did. BTW, if it matters, I have nVidia graphics, and use the OEM drivers as repackaged by Fedora. (If that doesn't make sense, don't worry; it's just a matter of making them easier to update with new kernels.) Are there any other recommendations?
