So I'm trying to set up Daggerfall.

So far everything works just fine but I encountered one serious problem.
It slows down to a crawl if I try to run it at 5000 cycles like the wiki said.

Runs perfect at max cycles (aka auto) though. My question is now, will this fuck up the game like the wiki said or will it be fine.

Game is patched and I'm running latest DOSBox SVN Daum.

Daggerfall general I guess.

Don't set it to max cycles and change the CPU type from dynamic to full/normal. I've found that setting the cycles to 48,000 to 50,000 and that should help. Also, get the setup.exe version of it if you didn't; it includes a shit-ton of user patches and some quest additions.

How is the Anthology version compared to older versions? I've been meaning to install it.

So far everything works now.
There's a weird crackling in all the non midi sounds. What's up with that?
It's not too bad but is this a known problem with a solution?

why

Because it looks like crap without lines when I go fullscreen.

So give me a better shader and I'll use it.

Also I have no idea what I'm doing.

Just a thought, you shouldn't be playing retro games.

Anyway, there's an option for line-doubling the output which makes it 640x400 which is the resolution the video card was supposed to display on screenbuffer mode. Then you can use the same shader and have it look like it was supposed to look.

The Anthology version doesn't contain unofficial patches, so you'll have to install manually or download a compilation from UESP wiki.

/vr/ elitists can't stand the thought of people playing games any way other than the way they played when they were kids. Just say fuck em' and do whatever settings look good to you.
