I am using Dogbox to play it, but my game stays very slow, at like 15 fps..how can i make it run so smooth like this?

i configured cpu clycles value to be 18000, but still slow...

any help will be appreciated!

Thanks! ;)

@veilsidebr

There was a fixed FPS in this game, which you can set by the game settings. I think 15fps was default...

Haha...

The intro music sounds fantastically like 'The Chain' on the Beeb!

[i386dx]

Hehe, yes indeed.

That's cool, I didn't knew that...

[DEHUMANIZER95]

I wish Crammond will make GP5!

Oh and wonderful Game!!

Crammond hatte damals kein Geld für die Rechte der Fahrer- und Teamnamen. So wurden "Sanches, Becker, Davies und Co." zu echten Helden.

------

Crammond couldn't buy the rights for really team and driver-names for 91' Seasion - so Names like "Sanches, Becker, Davies und Co." became heroes...

Really nice game, i played it as a child for so long.. .and when GP2/3 came up... we were experienced so far...

Get a Nintendo DS, buy a "Supercard DSTwo", download the DOS-Emulator "DS2x86" and then you can play this great game on your Nintendo DS in almost the same performance as shown in this video.

Thank you, Geoff Crammond, for creating the best F1-series in videogame-history

and

thank you, Patrick Aalto, for creating such a brillant DOS-Emulator for the Nintendo DS.

And he's still working on this emulator, so the performance will get better and better.

Just a dream to have this game in your pocket

i have played it on Amiga and a 386, 486 and pentium 60 cpu pc ! great moments !

This brings a nostalgia rush to me. I remember doing 360km/h on Monza main straight because there was opponent on pit road and the game glitched & thought i was dragging behind him. I also remember the security/copy/whatever check that you had to write a word from a specified page and row from game's manual. Of course i had copied game without manuals, and i only remembered word "table" from page 181 that worked. Sometimes i had to start the game like 50 times before page 181 check came up.

quick question: how to you accelerate cause im pushing A and it just wont go

[Trondyard]

This great classic can be played on a Nintendo DS by using a "SuperCard DSTWO" with the Dos-Emulator "DS2x86" (by Patrick Aalto) and the game.

It's not as smooth as in this video, but it's running with 20 fps, which is enough to have a lot of fun with this great game wherever you are.

[EmphaticItalic]

Haha Carlos Sanchez, I get it!

OMG I remember playing this game for hours. I would play a whole season with all free sessions, qualifying sessions and full 2 hours race every time. I played 2 times a week. I was so concentrated. Really submerged in the virtual world.

Then came GP2, which was astonishing, but I couldn'f find the time again to play full seasons like in f1gp. Good old days. that was world of warcraft for me.
