Yes, you are right. To avoid the problem you need to slow down CPU with an appropriate utility (like Mo'slo) or slow down CPU Cycles with CTRL+F11 if you use DOSBox .
Personally with my PC, that isn't exactly a "monster" (as you can see on my signature), i have had little problems, just pressed 2 time CTRL+F11. I have noticed that the mouse slowed down a bit but nothing special. if your system is much more better than mine, you need to experiment to found the best solution and eventually change even the mouse pointer setting, because it's possible that at the ideal speed when intercepting martian intruder will correspond a bad speed of the mouse pointer in the other part of the game. :tai:

The "Sensitivity" value in DosBox.conf can be increased, thus making the mouse cursor more responsive. It worked for me in X-Com Apocalypse.

Someone did a retro remake of Millenium within the past year for the PC. I don't have a link, but it definitely was much nicer looking.

Hi.

Just wondering if anyone out there is currently playing, or thinking of playing this game . . ..

BTW, you don't need DosBox for this one...

Depends of your PC/OS.
You may try to run it directly in XP64 or Vista, or Linux, whatever that doesn't like dosgames, good luck.
And even if some can run dosgames directly, if you have an onboard soundchip ...... nope.

Ah, dosraider........ Good Morning, BTW...

you obviously haven't played the game.......

The sounds on the pc version are so lame, better without 'em...

The Atari's wasn't bad though.....

But I shoulda stated Wondoze XP Vista, have no idea.....

Default Beat this game yesterday

fairly anti-climatic win scene. First it says game over with game date and rating then moves to a static picture of sios in faded blue with brown wheat in the foreground. Rating was just below 75%. Still lost to the mars armada but i took over half of it out.

Hehe. I just noticed the name of the game is misspelled "Millenium" (with 1 n) on the title screen and correctly spelled "Millennium" (with 2 n's) on the box.
