Are you talking about the slow down methods? That works with WC 2 as well and is not needed for wc3 and wc4. And to get wc4 working, the easiest way is to use the windows patch, anyway. Never tried privateer 1 and 2 and armada under real dos, so I can't tell whether you need to slow down them...

the main page? that is http://dosbox.sf.net or did you mean gulikoza's dosbox section? that one is linked on the left at the side I linked in my previous post.

I can't tell for sure, but someone with a 700Mhz reported that he was able to really play it with a one month old cvs version. So the chances are good, that it might run for you at perfect speed in 0.62 ;)

According to the Dosbox homepage, No Regret is 100% supported in DOSBox 0.61 and No Remorse 90%. But there is no description what to do to prevent errors. - Only info is, that others get crashes / errors as well. Oh well, I guess the guy who fixed it never posted how to fix it :S So best might...

Ok, I've just tested the CVS with WCIII: When using dynamic core and cylces at 60000, it is nearly 100% smooth - even during fight and when hitting enemies. Only stutters slightly when creal close to the enemy. real cycles are at up to 30000 in fight then and videso up to 35000. So I'd say for...

Wow! Thx a lot gulikoza :D I'll try out that out with Wing Commander III and check out whether Joystick works properly with Armada.

Is that a P4 based celeron or the PIII based one? If it's the PIII based one it normally should be fast enough. So: Did you higher the CPU clock in the dosbox.conf?I personally use ~4000 cycles. If not, that's why it's so slow. If you already did, you might want to try out the newer CVS...

The windows patch is meant to be installed before the game is installed. - The whole descrition was just linked by Iwannaplayp2. - Sorry, forgot to mention it somehow :( But pls don't start several Threads next time instead of asking back again in one, like Iceman16 said.

It's still too fast? OH well, I guess your Mobo/Memory etc are better than mine then ;) To the DOS emulator: Even if DosBox was running, it would be very likely that it'll be too slow on that PC. But I don't know anymore DOS emus that'll run on your rig, sorry :(

I'd guess so, too. Only prob might be that not every BIOS allows to switch of the cpu cache :( So good luck ;)

What OS are you on? What's your PC specs? And did you follow the step by step instruction for the windows Patch, available here: http://originalthp.solsector.net/privateer2win95/privateer2.html And here are the FAQ for the patch: http://originalthp.solsector.net/privateer2win95/faq.html...

Yes, that's right. But those "working" floppies could die as well ;) Anyway, I use my Armada-CD to install the game instead of the floppys and keep the floppys in the box, so they do not die slowly - like my boot floppy for my DOS PC did 3 times already (Well, data got corrupted, a reformat and...

What CPU is that? PentiumIII? K6-3? something else? I ask, cause for my K6-2 400Mhz switching off both internal and external CPU cache in BIOS solved the problem. But keep in mind, that this will slow down your whole PC drastically (it runs about as fast as a 386 with 33Mhz or so).

For WCIV: Are you running with the Windows patch in Win9x compatibility mode? Did you use the win2k patch available in this Thread yet? http://www.crius.net/zone/showthread.php?t=9353 And you may also want to try the USB Joystick patch, if it still doesn't work. linked in this Thread...

Ok, this is a common prob and it's quite easy to fix. So don't worry :) Just check out this Link: http://originalthp.solsector.net/privateer2win95/faq.html Or the other way is to do this: To read the whole thingy, just check this link...

I've got a question about the Kilrathi Saga: I'm wondering which of those two is harder to find / worth more: the silver one or the white one?

You can also use it to install it. Just mount the drive with all the setup files as A: That is what I had to do for my Armada Floppy version, wouldn't install otherwise. @cff: Floppys use to die after using them too much or when getting old, so backing them up in a zip or so, is a quite good...

And, have you read the readme that comes with Dosbox yet? Cause you can change the clock speed of DOSBox by pressing ctrl-F11 (lower) and ctrl-F12 (higher) or editing the config file (dosbox.conf, [cpu] section). And there are some other helpfull settings descripted there as well. For WC1 I use...

Here is a quote from the DOSBox.sf.net: So just like with Privateer and Wing Commander III. If you are getting into any further probs, just check this link: http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/comp_list.php?showID=548&letter=S If it doesn't help you, just ask ;) One last thing: I've read some...

welcome to the club :( - You are not the only one with such crashing probs. Just check out these Threads, maybe they help you http://www.crius.net/zone/showthread.php?t=8912 http://www.crius.net/zone/showthread.php?t=9353 Good luck ;) Hopefully it'll help you more than me :(
