Hey retro Elite folks!
I'm getting towards the the tail stages of my playthrough of FE2 on my stream (twitch.tv/drewwagar) and am looking to getting FFE up and running next. I'm trying to run it from the original binaries as provided by eliteclub.co.uk back in the day.
So far...

I'm getting towards the the tail stages of my playthrough of FE2 on my stream (twitch.tv/drewwagar) and am looking to getting FFE up and running next. I'm trying to run it from the original binaries as provided by eliteclub.co.uk back in the day.
So far...
- Downloaded FFE and unzipped. Eventually figured out slightly odd path config and game runs - WORKING
- Used setup programme to apply settings for audio and midi - WORKING
- Found an ISO with the CD version and extracted the videos... put into a DATA directory in the game folder. They work when double clicked in explorer, but the game doesn't see them - NOT WORKING
- Control method. I've been flying FE2 on keyboard. This seems to work on FFE most of the time, though occasionally the game seems to pick up some spurious control input from somewhere (ship spins around for no obvious reason) - PARTIALLY WORKING
- Frame rate. Even with dosbox boosted to a crazy 60k cycles, framerate is poor. Anything I can do to optimise? - PARTIALLY WORKING
