German Version (2017-03-09 20:23)

The German (1 CD) version is called "Blaster!" and works perfect with 0.74 as well.

Works With 0.74 (2017-03-09 20:21)

tooly111

Game works perfect with 0.74. Make sure to select SoundBlaster Pro in the setup as SB16 seems to cause glitches.
There is an English Shareware Version and 2 Full Versions, one German (1 CD) and one Polish (2 CD). I'm not sure what the difference is between them, possibly more cutscenes on the 2CD version??
If anybody knows of an English Full Version let us know!! but I don't think one was ever made.
These are some of the settings I used:
[sdl]
fullscreen=true
fulldouble=false
fullresolution=original
windowresolution=original
output=ddraw
autolock=true
sensitivity=100
waitonerror=true
usescancodes=true
priority=higher,normal
mapperfile=mapper-0.74.map

[dosbox]
machine=svga_s3
captures=Captures
memsize=64

[render]
frameskip=0
aspect=true
scaler=normal2x

[cpu]
core=auto
cputype=auto
cycles=auto
cycleup=10
cycledown=20

Not a black screen, it types after running main file: MSCDEX not installed (but it's installed).
