On this computer, you should have no problem with speed. I suggest playing in "large screen" mode, with line skipping on.
Keep in mind that this is only a suggestion. You may play the game in whatever mode you find you like best.
On this computer, you will probably need a little extra speed. I suggest playing in "medium screen" mode, with line skipping on.
Keep in mind that this is only a suggestion. You may play the game in whatever mode you find you like best.
On this computer, you will probably need as much speed as possible. I suggest playing in "small screen" mode.
Keep in mind that this is only a suggestion. You may play the game in whatever mode you find you like best.

Click on R2-D2 to have a configuration suggested for your particular computer. This will be a “best guess” suggestion, based on your configuration.
This option will set the game screen to the small (320 pixels wide) magnification. This is by far the fastest.
This option will set the game screen to the medium (480 pixels wide) magnification.
This option will set the game screen to the large (640 pixels wide) magnification. This is the slowest, but the best looking of the sizes. This size may be too large for some monitors.
This option will give the game a "screen door" look, but it does improve speed on some computers when using the medium screen size. Use it only when you're trying to eek out every bit of extra performance.
This option will cause every other line on the display to be skipped. This greatly improves drawing speed, and is especially recommended if you have the "Large" size selected.
This option will stretch the game screen to fit more of your screen. This may slow down the game slightly. You may be able to get the same effect without performance loss by adjusting the vertical gain on your monitor.
The Direct Screen Blast option will greatly speed up gameplay, but it may not work with all Macintosh configurations. If this option causes problems with your computer, it will be set back automatically.
The Cancel button will close this window harmlessly, and forget you ever opened it.
The Okay button will activate the settings you have chosen, and close this window. The options will be saved automatically when you quit the game.
This is the Video Options screen. This screen will allow you to find the best video settings for your Macintosh.
