...mhhh, well OK, you shouldn't probably post the whole file... <_<
But OK. The CPU-settings are the interesting part:
Quote:
core=dynamic
cycles=auto
cycleup=500
cycledown=20
You should run all right with these settings but probably you should change cycles from auto to a specific number, in your case 15000.
But I'm not too sure about this, 'cause I don't know the "auto" setting.

you have already set maximum number of colors for dosbox

machine = vga

vga = 256 (only 16 in 640*480)
tendy = 16
cga = 4
hercules = 2

So DOSbox dose not support 16 in more than 640*480!!!??? :not_ok:
Is there any way to speed up the sound in VMD sound then?

I don't get the point of this question. :blink: Actually DosBox supports all the color you ever will need in Dos games. No need to change stuff in resolution or graphics.
When you start the game press Alt+F4 for fullscreen and there you go! :w00t:

Settlers 2 looks awfull in 256 colors. It supports up to 16bits. And I don't want to run it in 640*480
Besides, VMD sound is much smarter and easyer to use than dosbox.
It runns perfetly in VMD, but I would be VERY happy if I could speed up the music a bit, since it playes in slowmotion. Dose anyone now how to do?

The problem is that it runnes S2 in 256 colors, the game runnes slow, and is lagging (probly to low cpu speed (1,6ghz)). And it craches 50 % of the time and when I try to load the game.

Tried both.
VMD works, but the music goes in slow motion.
Is there any way to speed up it a bit?
