Regarding the locking up in the Dos box. Previous Rebel's locked up in the windows dos box for me also. I was expecting the odd lockup, or just an unexpected closing of the program under windows. This time around not one shutdown after over 100 hours of play (mostly auto testing in engine vs engine). I use win98se. Dos mode works with the limitation of 60 MB hash, even on a 128MB or more system. Don't know why this is though. The usual 3% speed up in dos is still there. Your suggestion long ago of disabling the joystick was usefull under windows mode. With joystick enabled it is about 5% faster under dos than the dos box. I exclusively played Rebel under Dos in the past, except just for light sessions. Now I just use the windows dos box.
