Nexus Set Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Speaking of DOSBox, I just ran across this --> DOSBox Portable. Might come in handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teotzlcoatl Posted February 1, 2010 Author Share Posted February 1, 2010 but I have no idea how to work DosBox to use it Just download DOSbox and type in the commands.... normally you "mount c c:/" etc.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegoManIAm94 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 I know how to fix it from being laggy... you gotta turn the CPU cycles up! Hit "crtl + F12". They need to be around 15,000-20,000.... you can also make the game faster by hitting some key near backspace... can't remember which one! Thanks. Well I thought it was the Graphics also but now it is playable. I also found out how to decrease the CPU cycle by pressing Ctrl+F11 incase you go over 20000.

LegoManIAm94 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 I was playing Arena but I cannot get out of the dungeon. I have found the portal which took me over two hours. But them you need to tell them the cost of magis spells and then I don't know so I guess then it takes me back to DOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegoManIAm94 Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I was youtubing some gameplay from battlespire and there is a Mutiplayer for it. Is it split screen or online play. Because that looks neat if it is online. But if there is online is it dead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alastair91 Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Oblivion was my only Elder Scrolls game that I've ever played. I only knew about Morrowind and the others only after playing Oblivion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volek Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Morrowind was my first TES game, i just loved it. Imho it's still one of the best games out there, i played it a very long time. Until my character was able to fly from one end of the map to the other within a few minutes :) I played TES:Oblivion a long time too, it was fun, but i never finished the main quest. I went thru all oblivion gates before doing the main quest, after that it was kinda boring going to all oblivion areas again. My fault, but it ruined the game for me :( I currently play TES:Arena. I think it's a great game, the dungeons sometimes give me the creeps... I did not try Daggerfall yet, but i'll get it on after i finish Arena. IF i ever gonna finish Arena, it's an open world game ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volek Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Sorry for getting out of topic, but i know many people have trouble running TES:Arena. I gathered these infos from several forums and tuts all over the almighty google, and by trying and failing and trying again. If my files dont work, search for yourself ;)OK, if you can't get the game to run smoothly, you could try this: Run the game with these DOSBOX settings: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4091016/arena.confStart the game with this batch file: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4091016/arena.bat Copy both files to your DOSBOX folder. You gotta edit the batch file and enter your Arena installation path. After starting the batch file, type "arena" to start the game. If the music doesnt run smoothly, try to decrease or increase CPU cycles. My standard value is 24000 cycles, and my game plays the music just fine with these settings. After a while the game starts to run very slow and laggy, especially in boss & quest dungeons like Fang Lair or Labyrinthian.In this case just press ESC and reduce detail to a minimum. . Then the game and the music run smoothly, I didnt notice big differences to the maximum detail setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teotzlcoatl Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 Thanks for adding the Arena info. Yes Battlespire is online, I'll play with you if you can't find anybody else... it's the only online multiple player TES game. Daggerfall is better than Arena, you'll love it. I dare say Daggerfall may be better than Morrowind... and I think Morrowind is the greatest game created in human history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
