You have to run it using EGA parameter (capital letters), eg
oilega.exe EGA |

another, hopefully last question :-)
oil imperium runs too fast, I can not read the bottom line. can I run it a bit more slowly ? |

Yes, by setting DOSBox to run on a specific number of cycles instead of an autodetected value. You can set this in the game config or by typing cycles followed by the intended value from the command line, eg cycles 750 .

Yes. You're supposed to enter cycles 750 as a separate command, before running the game. It's a command unique to DOSBox itself, and not an option specific to the given game.

Thanks so much! I was brought up on DOS... It's been a long time, and now I'm using a Mac... Your guide was VERY helpful.
Keep up the awesome work!: 3: |
