I had some trouble getting it to work manually.<br /><br />I haven´t played Dungeon Master 1 so I don´t know if DM2 is easier but, it is not difficult and the game is quite short. I had greater problems with Crystal Dragon. That said, DM2 offers - at least for me - just the kind of challenge that won´t stop you or bore you. I did however have problems with the machine thing but it´s more a nuisance than anything else. I recommend trying it out.<br /><br />Right now, Skyrim is taking all the little time I can afford....Saintushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14470241513709473747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3986955720568668168.post-35239628578899404252011-11-23T09:09:28.662+01:002011-11-23T09:09:28.662+01:00I haven't read your entries about DM 2 to avoi...I haven't read your entries about DM 2 to avoid spoilers, but I've read that it requires more horsepower than most other games to run properly with DOSBox. Have you tried increasing the CPU cycles, either from the config files or pressing Ctrl-F12 from within the game?<br /><br />I've been playing Chaos Strikes Back recently, and it was almost as fun as the first time. <br />It doesn't require that much time to play if you are already familiar with Dungeon Master (I estimate I spent one third of the time on completing CSB, than I did on a game like Ultima V), but it requires patience, attention to details and meticilous mapping more than anything else.<br /><br />I've reas that DM 2 is easier than DM 1. Is that you experience as well?PetrusOctavianusnoreply@blogger.com
