Just sad, that even in it's final patched, last version it's still quite buggy...

DosBox is amazing, but sometimes the speed in the game doesn't adjust to the sound of it so it runs kind of clunky (as is the case in Master of Magic), it doesn't run as smooth as it can on just VDMS. Problem is, it's kind of tricky to get the settings for it to actually run without DosBox, but the effort is well worth it for this game

How do I do this... I'm not big into the 'messing around with DOS', and never was.

I had little trouble getting it to run smoothly even in its unpatched state. Must be something about my computer. One of the greatest games ever made.

Even in it's unpatched state? Heh, the unpatched state is there to make troubles only - better you patch it. :wink:

Hello, this is another question which I'm certain most of you will find laughably simple. How do you ...apply.?? a patch to a game? I have downloaded both the game and the patch. I read the read me file, but I didn't see any clear and simple instruction for the computer illiterate folks like me.
Would someone please help me with this?
Thanks in advace.

Gravedigging, but I have to add my opinion this is one of the best games ever. Still in my top 3 list and I used to play it under true dos on a increased 286. Great game.
I can even win on impossible level with magic powerful.

What? You've played it on a 286? How did you manage that? :confused:
It would be even pretty slow on a 386-DX25, with only a 486-DX50 being reasonably fast inbetween the opponent's moves.

Was slightly slow, but I managed. At that time I knew diddly squat about computers but my dad used to a programmer. The 286 was build in with more stuff and resembled is some ways a 386. And a very special start menu had to be made just for the game. Dad was real nice it costed him a day or two
It did have a good tendency to crash, but I don't know if more than the others, after all without patch it is a bit unstable, so to say.
What can I say I loved the game back than already so much I just went with it... it is the only strategy of its kind this well done in fantasy setting and which I can play the highest level and still win. How I wish for a MoM2, but I saidly I only know how to code expansions for the Infinite (BG2 etc.) engine.
