Did you tried 0.63?

eL_PuSHeR you might want to consider breaking out of the scripts.

DosBox 0.63 is a GREAT utility, I have tested it on a number of dos games that I have archived, which didn't work properly on XP.

Dam! Lol! Am I stupid or what? 😁
I read the whole post, I swear. Doh!

On dosbox.sourceforge.net, it says that Triplane is supported from version 0.62 and byond, but that must be wrong.. the same problem as above also appears on my laptop with dosbox, except that the intro sound is jerky also..

If I run triplane on my stationary pc by normal means (executing triplane.exe), the game "works" when you:
1. Turn off the sound (if you turn it on, the music sound awful, and apparently plays about twice as slow as usual)
2. Disable the 800x600 VESA mode (graphics looks bad in VESA. I'm a Norwegian, so it's difficult to explain in English how it looks..), and play in standard graphics mode. Each player then get only a quarter of the screen each.. not very convenient..
3. Start triplane for the Windows XP Safe Mode. But then there is no sound in the speaker..

If I run triplane on my laptop by normal means, the game:
1. Works fine in VESA mode
2. The intro music works fine
3. The music works fine in the options window which follows after the second intro screen
4. But when you play, the "slow" sound appears again, only even slower as on the stationary pc
5. When you end gameplay and return to option screen, the music sounds awful also here! And plays slower than on the stationary pc..
6. Starting triplane in safe mode is equal to starting triplane on safe mode on my stationary.

Laptop info:
Packard Bell, AMD Duron Processor (don't know exact Hz, probably 1 GHz)
Microsoft Windows Me (4.90.3000)
556K conventional mem free in command.com

Try and download triplane 1.03 from http://www.megabaud.fi/~teemut/triplane.html and check for yourself!

BTW: Triplane got their keyboard handling routines from the allegro library. Sound Blaster library version 0.5 for DJGPP v.2.0 also used.
BTW2: I also tried VDMSound 2.1.0, but it did not work. Same problems as if I start the program without any emulator.

Hi! Don't bother with the problem any longer - found out it works fine when I screw up the CPU cycles.. got the idea from one of the threads in your forum..
