Hi, after days of searching I finally got myself a copy of one off my all time favourties, Witchaven.
However, I'm having several problems getting it working properly. I tried out the tips posted on the DosBox website, and installed Dos32a and the running did improve a litte, but far away from enough. It stills feels to slow and unsmooth, not to mention how it runs in 640x480. please help me! Have anyone out there got it working |
640x480 is rather large for an emulator.
can't you make the screen any smaller ? |
Ex, 320x240?
Also, did you change your Core to Dynamic and increase the frameskip? How fast is your CPU? |
how do i change to dynamic?
My CPU should be fast enough. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(the_fifth_horseman @ Jan 19 2007, 02:14 PM) [snapback]275649[/snapback]</div> Quote:

core=normal and change it to say core=dynamic Quote:
From my own experience, Build-engine games (like Duke 3D and Witchaven) require pretty fast CPU to run smoothly in DosBox - and I mean well over 2 gHz. |

I acctually don't know the speed of my computer, since I not that much in to technics. It's only three to four years old I guess Is there any program or patch wich can update the game or somethin? I found a Duke3D patch for windows XP that worked great... and then there's off course all those engines for doom, heretic and hexen (zDooom) |
What you are looking for is called "port" of the game to Windows. It's not the same as patch.
As for Dyn.core, also increase the cycles - your machine should handle more at this setting. |
umm... tried this (witchaven's not mentioned on there but i know it's a build engine game and that may help a little)
