If it is on Windows people can just use the new installer and be done with it. This thread was started because the OP is on a Mac.

I tried that but for me, anyway, it ran better under dosbox, surprisingly. Thanks for all your work, Collector, I see you do a lot for us.

I used LaunchBox (a graphical front-end which allows multidisc games and has other neat features) with dosbox 0.74. Used a customized dosbox.conf file in game's folder. Everything is installed under a C:\ level folder, not under windows program files folder(s). In dosbox.conf file, edit it to set frameskip to 1 to avoid video character speech choppiness, fullscreen and windowsresolution to actual screensize dpi, aspect=true, output=overlay or ddraw, autolock=false to allow free mouse cursor movement, and that's about it, all else can be defaults.
