![]() The problem is that the game time goes by so fast that when the attack menue appears I don't have enough time to even check what all my attack options are... The window only stays open for maybe 5-10 seconds max.
Does anyone know if there are any slow-down programs that slow down the program itself and not the system as a whole? I would rather not slow the system down because that would prevent me from starting new things in the background while the game is going on because the system resources are already used up. |

![]() So far I didn't have any luck finding such programs.
I would suggest you use the DOS version and run it through Dosbox. This will cause the game to run at its designed speed, while hopefully not using too much of your system resources.

![]() One of the versions of Mo'slo does just that, but not the free one so you'd have to pay.

![]() hey guys im a massive fan of ufo enemy unknown. It is easily my favourite game of all time. I used to play it as a younger kid 7-8 years old on my old pc windows 95. I remember playing it allot before the computer went down which kinda sucked. But now i have a problem
I found it again this week from this site and downloaded all of the files. Problem is im a total noob when it comes to actually understanding what to do with it. So i extracted all of the files then double clicked on the ufo defense icon. It all comes up and i get the sounds and thought fantastic, But the screen goes completly black. Now it comes up with send error report everytime i rty to even start and run it Is there anyone who can help, I'm not to accustomed with DOS either which doesn't help but i would love to learn. Please can someone point me in the right direction Cheers will |

![]() Which exec are you running? You should use the patched one (bandage icon).

![]() Sounds like you've got a problem.
Download the DOS version, and use DosBox to run the game. You can download it here. |

![]() Ok ive got dos. I've gone through the step by step guide on another game. I tried to install it from there but literally im a total noob to this kinda thing. I tried everything to get it to run, its keep on telling me
To setup ufo enemy unknown change directory to c\dos then enter cd setup followed by your name of the drive i do not understand this. Last night i had the introduction working but now i acn't seem to do it, Any step by step hints here? |

![]() In the directory where you put UFO, type in setup and press [ENTER] to run the game's setup program.
