Hi,

when I try to run Lemmings 2 in fullscreen (WinXP Athlon64 3200+ 1 Gig RAM, dosbox 0.63), the sound stutters and the movements of the lemmings is slow and stuttering. I have tried pressing Strg-F12 multiple times, it first speeds up a bit then, but not enough, and finally at 60000 or so, my computer becomes unusable and I have to decrease it again. However, I have not found an emulation speed at which Lemmings2 works acceptably performant.

Andy ideas?

Thanks.

cu,

Jackie

Try increasing frameskip (Ctrl-F8). If that helps, then another output method would probably speed things up. Try changing dosbox.conf to have "output=overlay" or "output=ddraw" in the [sdl] section.
