Hello,
I've just installed the X-Wing 1994 CD version, which took 2 tries and more than 1 hour (for the successful installation alone, that is). I had to abort the first try, because the installer had some problem with renaming some files.
However the actual problem I encountered is that the program is extremely slow - to the point of crashing.
Just after creating my pilot file, I clicked on the merits part, and opening the extra box took very long. I then entered the docks (or whatever, from which you access the missions). Again I had to wait several seconds; and I mean something like 20 to 30, and I consider this way too long for such a good old game, even when taking dosbox into account.
Then I wanted to check the tour of duties: I waited for a few minutes and then decided to close the program using the Windows task manager (which reported the game was not responding).
Has anyone experienced this kind of problem and found a solution?
