The sold button doesn't work since the site's relaunch.

I can get the program to run in VDMsound but can't see anything other than colored speckles.

I wish I could find a setup for graphics or something, I remember it being a 250 colored game if I remember correctly but it has been a long time.

It didn't work in Dosbox for me either, so if anyone has a clue about the graphics issue that would be great.

I can hear everything crystal clear but only see colored starts and the like, not an easy game to play by sound alone.

Ya and whenever I try to exit it is really hard and the windows graphics are messed up until I reload. It won't just let me go in and change it back without reloading.....and surely doesn't go back to it's original settings.

yea its a 256 color game
I have good experiences playing M.A.X via DOSBOX 2 years ago. I played an endless game about 120 turns and it worked fine. then it had some memory leak and I don't found a patch for it as yet. I installed the old 1.03 patch I loaded as I bought this game long time ago, because without it the whole game won't run!

actually I don't have a *.conf file here to look on, and its some time ago, I played this game, but if you have graphic problems, try to change the "output" settings to following values

surface, overlay or ddraw

another bit testing is required to find the fitting cpu. cycles should be set to 30000.

another thing could be the refresh rate of your monitor.

I'm using DOSBox 0.72 and I can't seem to get MAX to work. I did a full install (from CD) to the c drive I created for Dosbox, installed the patch 1.04 (I'd like 1.56 if anybody has it), opened Dosbox, changed directory to the max folder, and tried to run it with maxrun.exe. When it tries to start the game I just get a black screen. I've never actually used Dosbox before so I'm not ruling out the possibility that I did something wrong. Any helped would be greatly appreciated.

There's a batch file there somewhere. It has the path to the game location. Adjust it to be correctly pointing to its location on your C mount in DOSBox.
