Hi,

I'm trying to run an old shooter 3d game on dosbox, Blood, to be exact. It works almost perfectly... though the only crucial problem, is that it has something about 2 or 3 frames per second, no matter how are set values of cycles or frameskip. Is there any smart way to boost it up? Cause now it's impossible to play with this. 🙁

core=dynamic.
cycles=max.
Try not to set the video resolution more then 640x480.
And the CPU must be as powerful as possible.

On my PC (p4 3GHz) Blood works good (~30fps) with this settings.

Updating dosbox to a recent version would help too.
