Essential improvements

Run in DOSBox

To run correctly in DOSBox make the following changes:

Optimal DOSBox configuration file values[6]
  1. Change cycles=auto to cycles=max
  2. Change memsize=16 to memsize=24
  3. Change timed=true to timed=false
  4. Change rate and oplrate to match the frequencies set in Sound Options in-game.

Leave all other settings at their defaults.

Skip intro videos

Notes

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 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).
