I am having an issue with this game. I'm running it in dosbox, the version here from abandonia. Everything seems to be running smoothly, but after 10-15 minutes of play my game stalls and I have no option but to Ctrl+Alt+Delete to get back to my desktop.

Any suggestions on how to fix this, I'm really interested in playing this

First: Have you tried Alt + Enter to exit full screen mode, and then close the DosBox window?

Second: Have you experienced the same problem with other games via DosBox?

Third: (if no): Try disableing sound before launching the game, just to see if the game still freezes.

Games run through dosbox usually works, I've been using it for years so I'm not a complete moron at it... Anymore

Okay, I can alt+enter as well, but that really doesn't help with game performance since it's still frozen...

Actually, I enabled sound and that has helped a bit

[Mighty Midget]

Umm, you ENABLED sound and it helped? Usually, it's the other way around... Anyway, looks like this is out of my league. Stick around and someone might be able to help

[Driderman]

Yes, I enabled sound and it helped. I was pretty surprised too. Just had another crash, but if it doesn't get worse than this I guess I can play it as it is

[_r.u.s.s.]

how did it "help a bit"? (you mean it freezes less frequently? or you never run it with sound when it freezed) then, what are your core and cycles settings?

[Driderman]

I enabled sound and now it rarely freezes. I'm cycling it at 12000 and have my dosbox set to dynamic core, if I remember correctly.

Anyone else by me think the copy protection on this game is a bit over the top? I mean, I have to consult the manual every 5 minutes or so...
