When Im doing the setup for the game whats the best graphic mode to pick?

Under advanced settings whats the best scalling engine to use?

And, is there a way to change the key bindings so I can use aswd as well as asign other keys?

Thanks.

So what you're saying is that you not only couldn't be bothered to use the forum search feature, but that you didn't even so much as look at the other thread titles? Come on. The first rule of asking for help in a forum is that you at least make a basic effort to see whether people have already gone to the trouble of answering your questions.

Here are the threads that you want:

http://www.gog.com/en/forum/realms_of_the_haunting/patch_to_allow_changing_keybindings

Which approach you use is up to you.

Well, there is no need to be a condescending prick about things. Had you just talked to me like an adult instead of like you were talking down to a child I might have said "You know your right. It was late, I was tired and I should have looked more closely", but you didnt so you can suck it.

Besides, if you ever asked a question online then your just as guilty as me because every question you have has been answered somewhere online. So I guess you never asked a question anywhere, ever online have you? Because if you have then that makes you a hyocrite. So you read it right folks, no one should ever ask questions online.

Guess Im confused why I bother trying to ask other questions of human beings when I have google instead. So thanks for reminding me why I despise people on the internet. Ill consider this topic dead.
I'm sorry, but even if it's late and you're tired, when there's a thread about 3-4 lines from the top of the listing entitled "Patch to allow changing keybindings", it's just ludicrous to be posting a question asking if anyone knows how to do that. You'll get much better reactions from "people on the internet" if you make a bit of an effort yourself, and it was obvious that you didn't even try -- that's what irked me. If there was any possibility that you'd looked for the answer already, I wouldn't have responded in that fashion. Also, if I had really wanted to be a prick about it, I wouldn't have pointed you to the answers.
If there had been a dozen pages of threads - even a few, then fair enough. But all the answers were on the first page, in clearly named threads. I don't want to read multiple threads on the same subject, with the same answers.
Do you guys realize that none of those threads say anything about the graphics options?

You jumped all over the OP for asking some questions, and that one was completely legit.

Read this:

Basically use one of the accelerated modes (OpenGL or DirectX) as output, else your processor has to do the scaling as well as the emulation. There's not much else you can do. DOSBox is simply quite demanding on the processor and ROTH is a '95 game, so your netbook CPU may simply not be up to the task. :(
Thank you very much, that ended up working out quite nicely! Its not gonna run at 400 FPS, because as you pointed out the lil netbook is kind of a simple beast. Anyhow, its certainly playable - thank you!
