In dynamic mode, it crashes when going to 3D mode. The reason for this is the extender which causes a crash - by replacing the existing extender with DOS32A, it works fine. |

On my bottom of the line Dell PC the AD runs from the CD... menus are smooth but videos are very choppy and I'm yet to try the combat. Also I cant get the program to run from my hard disk, I have to use the CD version v1.115 (which lacks the 1.120 patch and the 3dfx patch). Any suggestions would be appreciated, I've already changed config to cycles=auto and memsize=256. |

I don't remember doing anything special. I applied the v1.120 patch so now to play I run AD2.exe, and I think all I did in the DOSBox config file was set the CPU cycles to automatic, but I'll double-check that when I get home from work tonight as I forget which games run well on automatic and which need specific settings.
I max out all of the visual/audio settings in AD and it runs very smoothly.
It does occur to me that AD might run smoothly for me only because my AMD FX-57 - running at stock speed - just has the brute force necessary to run the game smoothly. |

It runs smoothly (software mode), the sound works perfectly (except for a low scratching/rumble noise during and for a little while after joystick calibration), the joystick works and the mouse works. Finally, I get to play this game! |
