Hi, I have had dosbox for a while now but not ever really used it. I remembered I still had a copy of my beloved Constructor: unplayable on Windows XP because Microsoft hate everybody over 20 who ever used DOS in their life, apparently.
Thats not the point, I have constructor running fine until I want to place a building where it suddenly slows right down and doesnt do... anything, really. I can increase the clock speed to 5500 and increase frame skip but nothing happens. My CPU usage in taskmanager is about 30% and my memory usage is about 20% so there are no problems there. Like I say, it works perfectly until then; sound, video, everything. Only when I try to place a building it slows to nothing. Any ideas on how to remedy this would be greatly appreciated, I just love this game.
Now I think about it, was X-COM:Enemy Unknown a DOS Game? I may have to try it, that used to be a great game too.
