Command Aces of the Deep Graphics

klatall · 08-12-14, 12:40 AM

Tried to search for my answer. Is there a way to use quotes to find only "Aces of the Deep" posts?

Anyway, I'm running it on XP using compatibility: Windows 95, 256 colors and 640 x 480 (or whatever it is). The graphics are extremely grainy. Also, another compatibility question. Do you need to use it for the setup.exe when installing the game? I didn't do that. I only used compatibility on the shortcut after installation.

Thanks and have a great day!

I run Aces on XP using DosBox, with no compatibility modes, and it looks just...well, about as good as Aces can ever look. But it plays well, and I still do play it.

klatall!

After a silent run of nearly 5 years! I still play Aces of the Deep, SHII, Destroyer Command and few others on my Win 98 computer and save the Win8 for SHV and SHIV.

I'm probably one of the few around here who haven't played it but I did see it running when at Neals house.
