Hello to all.

I downloaded and installed DOSbox .061. It installed just fine and I am able to play Starflight on my P-III 700 MHz with Windows 98 machine.

I have one small problem, that is the very top of the screen is cut off. I can't make out the location X-Y coordinates of where my ship is.

When the game starts I select "EGA" from the list.

Is there a way to fix this?

thanks to all!

Are you running DOSBox/StarFlight in a window, or in fullscreen mode?

Then you have to fiddle with the adjustment buttons on your monitor.

Hi! Could you help me?
I have installed on MAC OS X the 0.63 release of dosbox, and I'm trying to play Starflight. But I have problems with graphics: I could see only a distorted version of the game, but text informing against piracy works fine!
How could I fix it? There's a way to modify graphical options on the MAC version?
Thanx!!!

Your Display probably can't show the video mode (resolution) in game. Set "fullfixed=true" and "fullresolution=0x0", then play with different values of the "output" setting. Read the README to learn how to do that.
