Guest Guest Posted August 24, 2003 Report Share Posted August 24, 2003 ok so i downloaded this game form an abandomware site and installed it got sound to work, its just that it lags very much, i have a 300mhz (i know it sucks but it shouldnt lag on a 4/86) any suggestions? i tried to turn sound off but it wasnt the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[[Micah]] Posted August 24, 2003 Report Share Posted August 24, 2003 What exactly is the CPU? I don't think they made a 300mhz 486.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j'ordos Posted August 24, 2003 Report Share Posted August 24, 2003 (edited) Maybe he meant : it shouldn't EVEN lag on a 486. For the problem, use a slowdown utility I guess. edit : Or do you mean the sound lags? Edited August 24, 2003 by j'ordos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted August 24, 2003 Report Share Posted August 24, 2003 UFO defense works fine without any lag or overspeed, and i meant it shouldnt EVEN lag on a 486 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j'ordos Posted August 24, 2003 Report Share Posted August 24, 2003 (edited) So you mean the sound is the problem, right? Try VDMSound first if you haven't already done so and the VDMSound launchpad.also (assuming you have the DOS-version) :For problems with jerkiness, reduce the DMA polling period. [1/3 for really beefy machines, 2/5 for less powerful machines, 3/10 for slow machines] Edited August 24, 2003 by j'ordos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted August 25, 2003 Report Share Posted August 25, 2003 Sound is not the problem, tried turning that off, but thanks anyways and ill go try a cpu slower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
