Christian Nevermind, I found a patch and now it works like a charm (for now at least). It can be found here.

What OS etc are you running it on?
You could try using DOSBox, or possibly try using the other icon (blue one).
I'm running WinXP.
I tried using DOSBox for both executables (ufo.exe and ufo defense.exe) but neither of them works in DOSBox. (the error message I get is that they cannot run in DOS)

EDIT: X-COM: TFTD has the same problem for me but under a greater influence. I tried running that in DOSBox but then the problem is that when I switch menus (go to my basses or the options etc) it takes some time for it to load which is really annoying.

You can change the speed of the game with the little boxes with times written on them. 5 sec is the slowest. The yellow ufo.exe icon works fine at the proper speed for me in Win XP.
Well I know that you can change the time flow in the game with the buttons I'm not that slow (no pun intended).

But the game itself runs very fast... even on the slowest time flow!

Christian I tried running the game (ufo.exe) several times but the game runs super fast (5 seconds is like 5 hours) and I've even tried in DOSbox but it isn't working either (saying it's not DOS-version). Help :help:

EDIT: I tried running the ufo.exe also in Win95 compatability mode. Didn't work.
