TOPIC: Ideal DosBox Settings?
Ideal DosBox Settings? 10 years, 3 months ago #1259
I have often tried to run Warlords and Warlords 2 in DosBox, and I find both games always look and play... awkwardly.
Does anyone know of any way to fix this? Are there any tweaks you make to DosBox's settings when you play? Would love to know, as I am not an expert with DosBox by any means. |

iBazly,
I've never run Warlords I in Dosbox but I've run Warlords 2 many times without any problems. what awkwardness are you seeing? I always run full screen (Alt-enter). I always speed up the CPU because the default speed is too slow for animations/movement/AI etc. Typically I speed up to 15000 range. If you go too fast the sound starts to echo (F12 to speed up, F11 to slow down). KGB |

My main two issues are:
1) I don't actually get any sound? I got the version from here on Warlorders, so I don't know if that download is missing anything? 2) My cursor moves VERY slowly - but only vertically. Horizontally it moves at normal speed, but then moving the mouse up and down it is very slow. |

How are you starting Dosbox? There are parameters to pass in order to emulate a soundblaster16 (which Warlords 2 supports). Warlords I only supported PC speaker so you should not expect much sound on that game. see this link in the 'Sound: there is no sound' section www.dosbox.com/DOSBoxManual.html You may just need to run the setup program inside Warlords 2 itself to detect the sound card (I think that's all I had to do).
