core=dynamic This will increase the emulation speed, altough if the game you're running acquires a sudden tendency to crash - switch it back to normal. Also, I recommend the following cycle settings: cycles=12000 cycleup=1000 cycledown=1000 This is more or less an optimum for most games on my Sempron 2500+, and can be easily adjusted. Sometimes older games may need far lower cycle values, but in those cases even the default 3000 is typically too fast for them. |

Hold down the ALT key and press ENTER to switch between a window and full screen. Hold down CTRL and press F12 to increase the cycles (speed up the game). Can be repeated as many times as needed. Hold down CTRL and press F11 to decrease cycles (slow down the game). Can be repeated as many times as needed. To change the dosbox.conf ...

 I would like to know what changes as to be made in the dosbox.conf document for 1 - NOT be in full screen but change the size of the window !! I read everything but I cant manage to find this out. and 2 - How can I raise time speed for a game that I find is running slow ? |
