Although I played a game first time looong ago, in '98, I have an advice for those who always end up with no cash... At the very start of the game attack the cult that worships aliens, no one will hate you cause of that. In the raid, take an item that I can't quite remember of, but I know it's quite expensive on the market and SELL IT. Ain't a cheat, bug neither... excellent, ha? Just don't take it on me that I can't think of the name of that object

I'm playing on superhuman and got the dimensional probe, went to the alien world and came back. Now I can't get there with any troops. What activates the bio transport and other ships that can go the alien dimension? Icant seem to get the research to activate.

Make sure you have researched all the UFO types.

I have a question for someone

How exactly do you get the game music to run for Apocalypse after you download it off the site?

Thanks

[Eagle of Fire]

You can't. The music been ripped off from the game to decrease the size of the archive. Most games are ripped in some way of sound, music or videos when they are added to ABW site because otherwise the game size would be way too high and this over time cost a lot of bandwith to the site.

I have the original CD here and let me tell you that the game might actually be more enjoyable without music than with... So you are not missing much anyways. <_<

You might consider using DosBox.
You can download it here.

[Iczelion]

Ok i used dosbox and the color looks good, but now it runs uber slow..... >.> juss seems there is no winning with me trying to enjoy this game is there anyway to speed the game up using dosbox so its not soo slow and jumpy?

[The Fifth Horseman]

Sure.
Dynamic core
Cycles increase
And frameskip

Works wonders, but you want to use v0.65 of Dosbox for this (v0.63 was crashing almost constantly when you tried to run it in Dynamic core mode... ugh).

[Iczelion]
