First post, by cyrano
Hello,
First i want to say sorry about my bad english..
I read this forum since a few time now.. i found a lot of great help and info about emulation. I can now enjoy to play to my hold dos game.. Master of magic.. UFO, speedball2, colonization, albion,them park etc etc.. thx a lot for the great work with the tools and with this forum.
I come here today because i have a problem with privateer. I have Win xp pro.512 mg ram, Pentium 1,8 Gg. It s pretty slow atm.
I have read a lot of things about privateer and dosbox .. i know i have to wait an other dosbox version to have the speedgame problem fixed.(perhaps..)
My kestion is about the choice of the control.. i don t have a joystick atm.. i have tryed the mouse.. and it s really impossible.
Then i have tryed the keyboard.. and i got the bad surprise to see my target cursor jumping arround the enemy ship when i try to target it.. I think because my computer is just too slow.. It s coming from the lag. But i m not sure.
This is why i am here atm.. Is there someone arround who can send me some tips ? I have frame at 0. But it has done nothing.
Thx you by advance for your time. It s good to see some others ppls who keep interest in hold games and take their time to make them working on windows.
A little kestion again for pirates!gold! .. this game works well with win xp.. But it s just too fast . i can play naval battle =(. any tips for this too?
Thx you for your time,
regards,
Cyrano
