Descent 2 running .. erm.. too fast Oo

Post by Faithslayer »

Hey all,

I tried to play a bit of Descent 2 (Win95) yesterday and the game seemed to be running in turbo Oo is there any way that anyone knows of to slow it down?

Playing:
Descent 2 : Win 95 patch
On:
Win XP
P4 2.8Ghz
1Gb PC 2700
ATi Radeon 9700 Pro
Asus mobo (P4V800 i *think* (at work atm :) ))

Any ideas?

Thanks in Advance ^^

Faith.

You have two options:

1. Get a slower computer, as yours is blowing the lid off the 150fps bug. I reccomend something sub 233MHz running DOS 6.

2. See if somehow you can get that tired sack of week old haggis they call D2X running.
