Playing for the first time does it matter where I go first?

    IIRC, change the combat mode in options.

    As for the interface, stop running it in fullscreen mode (I presume that's the shortcut you're using). Arcanum shipped with two shortcuts, use the other one. 'Fullscreen mode' just changes the interface.

    Pressing space on your keyboard should allow you to switch between real time and turn based combat at will. And during combat, naturally.

    The only option I have is full screen. the exe is arcanum fullscreen..

    I know I can switch combat ingame but it always is on real time.

    You can switch to full permenant turn based in the options, as I said (or atleast I think you can).

    As for the .exe file (presume you mean shortcut), right click on it and select properties. Where it says target, remove everything after arcanum.exe that begins with a dash (-) except no3d and doublebuffer, if they're there. I think the specific tag you're looking for is -fullscreen, but I can't quite remember to be honest.
