Hi guys, I made my own eboot for this 1984 DOS game, and I came across 2 problems.
1. For some reason, the autoexec part of the conf file was omitted, so my INPUTMAP was not used. I fix this by using the .bat trick, but still, why it was omitted?
2. The game runs TOO fast. I know, this is weird, 9 of every 10 posts about DOSBox on the PSP complains about how slow games runs. I try everything I can think of: no
SYSOPT clock 333, fixed cycles, higher rate for the sound, higher scales, cga video. All fail, the babies bounce too fast to be playable. I did notice the when you miss a baby the sound seens slow, but the video is too fast.
My config is this

fullresolution=original
windowresolution=original

mount c ms0:/dos

Any ideas to slow down the game?
EDIT: Same problem with Hard Hat Mack and Zaxxon... all 3 are PC Booter games from 1984.
