Issues fixed

Flickering issues for SVGA graphics adapters

Use a command line argument[2]
  1. Launch the game by typing START /COMP, launch argument included.

Notes

This may cause issues for other graphics adapters-- mileage may vary.
This should be unnecessary for the GOG.com release.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within the installation folder reflects the path(s) listed for DOS game data. For the GOG.com release, file changes in DOSBox are redirected to <path-to-game>/cloud_saves/ even if GOG Galaxy is not used (this folder contains all redirected files, so some files in the cloud_saves folder might be temporary files or other files that do not contain saves or settings).
