> Did a mouse scroll patch ever get made for X-COM UFO Defense or are there > later versions that do not have the scroll speed problem. The (much) later "Classic" windows versions were slightly rewritten so they didn't have that problem. But no, there wasn't a patch for the mouse scroll prob. Best thing you can do is use slowdown progs like moslo and DOSBOX, as the code just isn't used to the speeds of today's CPUs. Can anyone remember when a 486 was considered the latest high-tech? ;D -- Daniel Blakemore Mini Gallery #1 - http://www.voidgamers.com/channel/b.190.html?author_name=MYLORDKHORNE #2 - http://www.lordsofthebattlefield.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=147 ICQ:14459824 Yahoo/MSN IM: mylordkhorne
