Hello there :3 Can you, please, suggest a optimal DosBox CPU parameters for X-Com: UFO Defense? (Cycles and type). I tried alot of them, but game runs either too fast, either too slow, or unstable. I would really appreciate your help with this :3

Without knowing more about the hardware you are using, it can be difficult to suggest anything – what works fine on a very fast computer might still be unacceptably slow on an older computer.

What parameters have you tried, specifically?

Well, my hardware is: Phenom X3 8450, HD6570 and 3 gigs of ram with Windows x64 (That's pretty much all specs that can be related to this problem). Well, the best CPU cycles parameter I've tried was 20000 fixed with automatic setting for CPU, but it wasn't very stable.

What do you mean by unstable?

Also, what version of the game are you running? Is this something from discs that you own, or are you using the version from a service like Steam or GOG.com ? You're using DOSBox 0.74, right?
