Very pleased...
I was very very pleased when i downloaded UFO 1 and saw that it works perfectly without speed problems or sound problems... I really don't know what kind of version of UFO is this ( because i had downloaded it and from another site sometime ago and it was unplayable due to speed problems... ) but i am happy that it is working perfectly

Haha... yeah... i think it's a newer vers. then the original actualy...
I got it on floppy-disks (org.) and it's unplayable on my P4 3 GHz to say the least...

Its a pity that UFO 2 is unplayable... in my AthlonXP 2700+ in DOSbox the game runs like a .... snail
Anyway... DOSbox needs still to be worked on. Better days are coming :P |

Wierd DOSBox should be able to emulate UFO2 on a decent speed. Are you speeding up DOSBox?

The game runs almost at normal speed in combat sequences, but in the 3D globe it runs awfully slow... i suppose it has something to do with the mathematic calculations needed for the 3D graphics.

That's very possible although VGA emulation takes the brunt of the CPU power needed to run DOSBox. You might want to check their forum someone should know why it runs so slowly there.

To be honest i haven't searched for a solution because im not that much interested to this game... its a mediocre sequel of UFO 1 and gets extremely hard after a while playing it - and boring also

I can't blame you for that. I never got into any of the UFO game to be completely honest. Too boring.

For me UFO 1 is one of my two most favorite games ( the other is civilization 2 ).
and as many great games, its sequels are worst than the original. |
