First off, please allow me to profusely thank "The Fifth Horseman" who encouraged me not to give up on "DOSBox" when I encountered problems using "Aces Over Europe" -- but, thanks to him, I stuck with it & now it runs flawlessly and I'm also now enjoying these ultraclassics as well ....

Aces Of The Deep
Castles
Conquests Of Camelot
Continuum
DarkLands
IndyCar II
StarGlider 2
Space Station Oblivion
Total Eclipse
TIE Fighter
The Secret Of Monkey Island
Ultima UnderWorld


OK -- my question ....
Whenever I play "Aces Of The Deep" with "DOSBox" it runs too fast no matter how much I adjust the CPU speed up or down.
Any help, please ?


Thanks In Advance !

well dunno, i have just downloaded aces over deep and it worked ok. try changing "core" in dosbox and btw, sometimes it has to be small like 500 cycles or so (but thats odd cause i run my version on 15,000 and it was ok)

Use Normal core mode and very low cycles (set starting cycles to 1000 and step to 250), then keep decreasing/increasing them until you get the right speed.

Sorry for the late response but I only have InterNet access on Tuesdays & Wednesdays! l o l

OK -- I say it runs too fast 'cause while I'm on the bridge the water -- waves, etc. -- seems to be moving too quickly.
As if it's sped up.
I use the 12000 CPU speed.

Does anyone else notice this or is the the way the graphics are intended ta move ?


Thanks In Advance!
