Hey there!

MK2 seems a bit slower than usual ? I really have that feeling, that this game is running a bit choppy. Is this because its the DOS version?

MK 3 slows everytime down, when i hit an opponent through the top (subway level for example).
It´s pretty annoying to be honest.

Is there any solution to this ?

Did some of you DOSBOX experts found like a "optimal" setting ?
Let me know :)
Cheers!


EDIT:
I changed the output to OpenGL and it works pretty much better actually!

MK2 is the weakest port of the 3. No CD music, missing sprites, smaller sprites and most importantly - the framerate is limited to something around 25 - 30. MK1 floppy version had the same problem but it was patched. MK2 had no such luck.

As for MK3 - you have to experiment because there are no universal settings that work for everyone. However setting cycles to fixed may help. Personally I use Direct3D output, dynamic core and fixed cycles. I'm still experimenting with the value.

thanks for the MK2 info. i hope someone will fix this soon ...

cycles wouldnt make sense, because the game works actually good ... except for some drops. will try something with the output :)

No one will ever fix this. This is just the game works and that wasn't patched back in the day and won't be patched now either. The only solution would be providing a different version like the one from Midway Arcade Treasures.
