Joystick, Serial, DOS and IPX are skipped as they do not require any changes for UFO/TFTD to work. #PC Speaker is not used and is only included here in case you want to play other games that use it, only change is to increase the audio rate. A guide can be found further down in this guide. #DO NOT SET "gus=true" unless you have Gravis Ultrasound properly installed for DOSBox. #opl3 is recommended along with the highest oplrate for best audio output. #To see which Midi-Devices are available and which number to use, open DOSBox and enter following into the "Z:"-promt: mixer /listmidi and confirm by pressing "Enter". #Proper Midi-Setup is explained further down this guide at the "Roland MT-32"-section, to use other Midi-Devices "midiconfig" has to have its value changed respectively. #If however you are bothered by that you can reduce the number to "4096", but then you will have to live with possible sound popping, especially during text promts (naming, game saving.). #blocksize and prebuffer will prevent sound popping from occuring, however they will also add a slight delay to the sound effects, with Turn Based games like UFO/TFTD/JA1 this however doesn't matter and is barely noticable. #Cycles can be manually increased/decreased during the game by pressing "CTRL+F11" (down) and "CTRL+F12" (up). #These settings are most important to make the game run fluently and not too fast. #change aspect to false, otherwise the pixels will be forced into a 4:3 ratio, weirdly stretching them horizontally. Both can help reducing screen tearing on some games but not all of them. #vsyncmode and vsyncrate are not initially included in the DOSBox-Config file and you have to manually enter them. #vsyncrate should be whatever your monitors Hz is set to, i.e. #For ideal resolutions to use visit the "Game Resolution Choices"-section of this guide! #WQHD Monitors for Fullscreen "2560x1400" and for Windowed "2240x1400". #openglnb will give you an unfiltered video output, some older cards may have problems with that, in this case "overlay" is an alternative to use. #If you prefer for DOSBox to start in Fullscreen, change "fullscreen=" to "fullscreen=true". (To change between Fullscreen and Windowed Mode, press ALT+Enter while having DOSBox active.) (Initial configuration is optimized for FullHD Monitors, however this guide has you covered up to 4K resolution.) (Comments marked with "#" are additional information and must not be added into the Config-file.) (this step requires you to have started and closed DOSBox at least once!)Ĭhange all values you find there to the following ones: bat"-file to open the DOSBox Configuration-Textfile. "C:\Games\DOSBox\") and double click on the "DOSBox 0.74 Options. Make sure you are in the correct section before you change values.Īnything in DOSBox that has a " #" at the start of a row will be ignored by DOSBox and is considered a comment, this is handy to leave yourself notes which configuration values to use for which game.Įnter your DOSBox-directory (i.e. Short explanation, each DOSBox-Section has a title in brackets, i.e. This guide will be based on that "Games"-folder, if you don't create it you will have to adjust this guide for yourself accordingly. When the installation is finished, start up DOSBox for it to create all necessary files for this guide, then close it again.Īdditionally, I recommend to manually create a new folder inside the "DOSBox"-folder named "Games".
