[Wizardry Gold] Text scrolls too fast

[Silpion]

Greetings!

I just got Wizardry Gold and after running around in circles for some time I encountered a problem:

Some text messages are just visible for an instant. Sometimes a whole dialogue scrolls up and I haven't found a way to make the lines last long enough to read them. This happens sometimes in combat and especially when NPCs tell me to remember something.
On other occasions like those messages you get when entering certain tiles, the text stayes fixed until I press a button.

I have already set text and combat delay settings to maximum but they don't seem to have any effect.

Does anyone know a way to slow down the text messages to a readable speed?

Nope. Most of the scrolled text is not that important but in a few cases it is. The Trang Queen gives some instructions required for a puzzle that fly by. I had to rely on walkthru cheats to solve some of these puzzles. The designers made a hodgepodge of text, no standard interface with a default "press key to continue", sorry.
