Man I remember playing the original Street Fighter II waaay back in the day and this definitely looks like the definitive version.

Only problem is that attack keys seem EXTREMELY unresponsive, I can maybe get 5-6 attacks in a total fight before my opponent mops the floor with my face.


So many things going on here don't even know where to begin looking for possible problems... running W7 64 bit, using the ISO version, have a very modern Logitech G15 gaming keyboard... if anyone has any ideas would be greatly appreciated, I had fun with SFII and SSF2T looks to be a blast.

You're probably better with the dreamcast emulator for this one ......
Just saying

In my opinion, this game and One Must Fall 2097 are two of the best fighting games available for DOS.

I had this problem also. I would keep pressing the attack buttons only to have my character sit there and get attacked by the opponent. I finally fixed the problem by setting the cpu cycles in Dosbox to 10000.

I remember playing these on the super nintendo. Can you use a directional pad for this game or is it strictly keyboard?

I can't change my CPU cycles. It was fixed. Rather wierd but I had to set the setting to turbo for Chun Li as that was the only way to get it fast enough to win. I'll have to look at it again to see if I can tweak it.

how did you actually tried to change the cpu cycles? by the way, if your core is set to "max", or "auto" it could end up being fixed as you tried to increase it with ctrl-f12

I have been playing around with the speed settings in Dosbox to see how fast I could get this game to run before the controls stopped responding. From what I found out, the controls start to lose their responsiveness after 20000 cpu cycles. The game plays very smoothly at around 30000 cpu cycles, but the controls are really unresponsive.This probably varies form PC to PC.

Be sure to use dynamic core.

I play this one on mame, and it works flawlesly, even on slower machines!
So try that one ;-)
I realize you're new here, but I'd really appreciate it if you didn't tell people what version of the game they should or shouldn't play.

Also, IMO, MAME isn't the best choice for Street Fighter arcade games anymore. The emulator I use is Final Burn Alpha, which is 10X faster than MAME and has more video and audio effects.

Has someone been able to correctly configure a gamepad? Everytime I try to do it, I always get weak punch in all buttons, although the d-pad is ok.
