BladeFireLight Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 You will need a copy of DosBox (free download) then install the game entirely to the hard drive. (this is done by creating a folder and copying the _entire_ cd to the hard drive via drag and drop." Download and apply any patches. (if your UFO is the original UFO:EU then you will need both 1.2 and 1.4) (and dont for get the "beta geoscape" for TFTD) start dosbox and map the drive you install to using "mount c c:\" (if the drive is c)then go to theat direcotry and run "setup" to configure the sound card using soundblaster with the default selections. for TFTD you also need to run "cdspeed c:" to turn on the movies. then start the game and usle CTRL+F12 and CTRL+F11 to adjust the speed. I recomend atleast 9000 cycles, but if you go to slow or to fast the sound get's choppy. Good Luck and happy hunting -Blade FireLight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
