To those of you having problems with framerate:
INSIDE THE DOSBOX CONFIG FILE
Set the mem size to 32 and the cpu to dynamic, change the display method from surface to pretty much anything else if you have a video card released any time after 2004.
To those of you with bad sound: (like
Aquizzar)
USING THE SETUP COMMAND IN DOSBOX
Put the sound effects to Soudblaster and the MIDI effects to MPU-401.
Also, you might want to and the -noconsole switch to the Dosbox shortcut and turn on full-screen option in the config file.
Doing these things will let DOSbox auto adjust CPU cycles and prevent problems like pallet swapping (screwed up colors) and frequent stuttering.
Required Files: You're going to want the DFQFIX and PATCH213 files from
http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Daggerfall:Files . These will make the game more stable and fix the bugged quests where you lose rep or the Target fails to spawn.
For you dirty cheaters out there, add a cheatmode 1 line into the z.cfg file, then you can use [ and ] to teleport to various quest target spawn points in dungeons and alt-f4 to turn on invincibility. You can also use alt-f1 to put all locations onto your travel map. Including the witch covens, which are exellent for summoning deadra regardless of the date.
As for Daggerfall vs Morrowind arguments, Daggerfall is the last great commercially developed rougelike, expect all the frustrations, limitations, and general fucking weirdness of the genre.
Oblivion vs Morrowind, think making money vs making a game you love.
