I've noticed that some early AGS games (like the old RON titles), which use the SETUP.bat instead of the usual winsetup.exe file run very slowly on my PC (all the animations and music "stutter"). Is there anything I could do about it?
If they use SETUP.BAT these games are possibly using the DOS engine, which recent Window$ O/S may not be that good in running.
You may try to run them with the Window$ engine (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/kbview.php?id=5) (preferably of a version as close as the original DOS one, if it exists, or try to run it with a newer version of the Window$ engine, but that does not guarantee that the game will 100% work). Alternatively, you may try to run them with DosBox (http://www.dosbox.com/).
The DOSBox replies:
"This is the Windows 95 version of the AGS interpreter. An MS DOS version is available on the website: http://adventuregamestudio.co.uk"
Got VirtualBox? Got an old copy of 95 or 98 lying about somewhere? You could try using a VM to see if that helps.
Thanks, I've already solved the problem ;D
