The easiest way to slow down old games is to hit the Turbo button on your computer, if it has one. Of course, not all computers have Turbo buttons, and not all will slow down all games the way you'd like. So, check out the MoSlo utility (it can be downloaded from the Essential Utilities page), one of many that allow you to slow down a DOS program. It works quite well for most games. Unzip the program to the same directory as the game you want to run slower. See similar questions...

Since there is no frame-skip or auto frame-skip in UltraHLE, the only way to speed up or slow down emulation is to change the resolution which you are running the game at, or disable the sound. Choose a high resolution to slow the emulation down, or a low resolution to speed it up. Disabling the sound also gives a speed boost. Also make sure that you have the most current drivers for your video and sound card, and that you aren't running any programs in the background while using UltraHLE. See similar questions...

It seems the game has become extremely slow to load again, recently. It's gotten to the point where I can visit several other websites every time I click on "attack". Anyone else experiencing this? --LouisB3 19:48, 4 Dec 2005 (GMT) I have noticed the game is extremely slow in the evening for the past 2 days, but seems to pick up and be very fast after 09:00 GMT, of course I am usually too sleepy to play by then.

You could be suffering from internet lag which is often caused by a poor connection between your ISP and our server. This is something beyond our control, but your own connection is often improved upon if you close out other bandwidth-consuming applications such as internet browsers, file sharing programs, chat programs, etc. See similar questions...

Although the program is capable of 20 channels, some computers will run best with 10 or less.. To reduce the number of channels and free up some systems resources change the number of max channels in the config table and restart the program. This program has been tested with 10 channels on a P90 and 32 meg of RAM with no problems. See similar questions...

Yes. Two things. One, Verizon didn't do a good job with the processor. They don't have the speed stepping working correctly, and since this is the case, SuperDave made a utility to help with it. It's found here: Speed Stepping Utility. You can load it and adjust the processor speed. this will help greatly. Two, install my CAB file. In the WM5 setup guide you can find the MRailing Phone Tools.CAB file. This contains many fixes and files for the i730 and WM5. See similar questions...

Close all other applications that are running, including instant messaging clients, email, browsers, etc. The game is able to utilize 3-D hardware acceleration, where available, to speed up game play. Click on the Options button and see if you can select 3-D hardware acceleration. If you cannot, you may want to try switching your screen resolution to 800 by 600 pixels with 16 bit color. You can then try selecting 3-D hardware acceleration again. See similar questions...

Chromium absolutely requires hardware acceleration - it will not run at acceptable speeds with software OpenGL. If the OpenGL 'Vendor' string printed out during start-up is 'Brian Paul', you're definitely running in software. See question 7. By default, SDL wants a GLX enabled X server. Chromium runs fine with the XFree4/DRI Voodoo drivers, but the old fullscreen Glide/Mesa hack for the XFree3.3.x is not recognized as valid. See similar questions...

For example, when you click the Bet button during a game, the ComePlay program on your computer immediately sends that message to the main server, which in turn sends it to all players in your hand. Only AFTER the message has been sent does your program start playing the animations to remove the button, make your bet move, slide the chips, play any audio, re-arrange the chips by your side, and so on.

Quit and restart, halding the space bar down while launching the game. This loads a stripped down version of the graphics, which picks things up. Run the file "Exile III Docs/Order Form." In the back is a mini-hint book for the first two chapters. This should answer most of your questions. See similar questions...
