Dosbox Blues

Viking · 04-01-2005, 07:39 PM

Well this isnt really a problem per say. It seems like every game I run under DosBox, the games run a little slow. Some worst then others. My computer is old, but not that old. I dunno. Any ideas?

try this

memsize=63
frameskip=1
core=dynamic
cycles=20000 or if your comp cant handle it cycles=13000

When you start a game use ctrl+F12 to increase cycles. See if that helps. (Make sure your CPU usage does not reach 100%, as it will slow down the game again if it does)

hey guys i have a question about the dosbox. it may be stupid, it's just i don't really know how to use it. well, is there any way when running a game in dosbox to expand from window to full screen? i guess it's something obvious i haven't noticed perhaps? :blink:

In the dosbox.conf file,
find the line

fullscreen=false

And change it to

fullscreen=true
/-

Also just press alt + enter to change from windows screen to full screen and other way around.
