I'm having the issue with the mouse scrolling way too fast in the battlescape. I downloaded the windows version from here. I tried using Turbo (set it to 1%) and I adjusted the ingame scroll speed. I adjusted my mouse speed from windows and nothing slows it down even the slightest.

I tried to get the DOS version but.. what file is supposed to run it? I tried running most of them and the closest I got was a black screen with the title bar switching between geoscape.exe and battlescape.exe every few seconds. I was using DOSBox to run it.

Sounds like you are using the ufo defence.exe. Don't, use the exe that looks like a yellow sun.

If you're referring to the windows version, neither executable, ufodefence.exe or ufo.exe (Yellow sun) does anything different so far as starting a new game and getting to a battlescape to test scroll speed. Nor is the scroll speed any different.

On the DOS version I have all these choices:
dos4gw.exe; Nothing
intro.exe; Nothing
setup.exe; Nothing
done.com; Displays splash screen of a complete installation exits to DOS instantly
go.com; Black screen; DOSBox title bar switches between geoscape and tactical
noway.com; Displays splash screen of a installation "You need to specify the DRIVE and DIRECTORY [...]"
welcome.com; Displays splash screen of a installation "Please wait. Initialising ...." exits immediatly to DOS
cdsetup.bat; Sound config
full.bat; Black screen; DOSBox title bar switches between geoscape and tactical
install.bat ; Displays splash screen of a complete installation waits for keypress to return to DOS
small.bat; Black screen; DOSBox title bar switches between geoscape and tactical only much, much faster
ufocd.bat; Nothing

install c:\xcom actually does create a folder called xcom with the proper folders but only cdsetup.bat, dos4gw.exe, intro.exe, setup.exe, ufoc.d and ufocd.bat all of which do nothing.

Same problem here. It runs too fast in windows mode, the slowdown utilities don't work, and I can't get the DOS version to run in DOSBOX. Anyone know which executable to run for the DOS version?
