Hello! I hope I'm posting in the right place.
I'm trying to get Oddballz (a very charming Windows pet sim from the 90s) running on my 2016 MacBook pro. I've been able to get the game to run using Wine and Wineskins, but it always runs far too fast. I know that DOSBox has an option for changing the CPU cycles to slow games down, but of course when I try to run Oddballz through DOSBox on my Mac, I get an error message saying "This program must be run under Microsoft Windows".
Does anyone know how to slow down old Windows games on a Mac, through Wine or otherwise? Wineskin allows you to run the game with a command line shell, so is there a command I could use there to limit the CPU cycles/speed? Would really appreciate any help y'all can offer. Thank you! 😀
