        @d12a13 said in Dosbox and machine=vesa_oldvbe no effect:

        #machine=svga_s3
        machine=vesa_oldvbe

        I'm not sure that the config file allows for settings being commented out. Have you tried to launch the game without that line?

          @d12a13 i have all the different s3 drivers installed on my “c:” drive that i use in dosbox. Wouldnt hurt to try to install the actual drivers.
