"Won't come out right"? Not sure what you mean by that.

You need to choose VGA graphics when you run the game... this _should_ work.

If it doesn't, run the game in DOSBox but experiment with changing the machine setting in DOSBox.conf. The possible settings are described in the config file itself.

I'll run CHI later today and see if there are any problems on my copy of DOSBox.

I had this game when it first came out. At one point in the game I could not take 2-3 steps without getting into a battle. It made the game unplayable. I went back to the game one day and was checking around and found out why. Man was that lame. LOL!

One of the handful of games I finished with my bro in the 80s.

Random, yes. File GAME#, offset 0D5D, 4-byte. 7777 7777 doesn't look random, is easy to type and gives a nice amount of C-Bills near to the limit but not to near (so you don't go negative by earning even a little more).

Anyone else who played this having issues with the first training mission where you have to get to the south east corner of the training yard? No matter how fast I get over there and back I always fail the exam...

Been a while since I played this game, but I don't recall having any problems with the first training mission.

Yeah, same here. I tried eight times without managing to pass the first one, I gave up after that. The first mission can't be THAT hard so something has to be funny since I'm running the game through DOS box, perhaps I'll try again later. Thanks for the reply.
