Command Prompt I tired using it to run Blood. No Dice. Compatibilty Mode on XP seems to work the best for most of the stuff I try to run.

timrpgland That's what I'm saying. I don't think they are giving it away anymore. They did for a while but then they removed it from being abandonware. A few sites still have it though but Beth isn't giving it away.

But they are giving it away for free, so it doesn't matter.

Driscoll Commander Keen: Goodbye Galaxy! runs like a dream on it, as does all versions of DooM and Duke Nukem (though I haven't tried DN 3D on it yet).

Xenogil Awesome. I'm gonna try it out and see if Loadstar will run on it.

timrpgland you can find it but it actually isn't abandonware anymore.

Supafly345 You can get it at the morrowind site somewhere.

adept_ninja where did you get daggerfall i could never find it
Aug 11th, 2005 03:12 PM
timrpgland what else did you try?
Aug 11th, 2005 12:47 PM
Supafly345 Daggerfall is the only thing I could ever play on it.
Aug 11th, 2005 11:11 AM
timrpgland I've been mainly using it for Daggerfall lately and set the clock speed to 13 or so and it runs very well. Anything more advanced than Daggerfall, I can see it having a problem with.

AChimp For true old-school action, get your hands on a 486.

Helm Dr.Boogie, try an earlier version than 0.63. I get clipping problems on all games with it, yet everything runs like a charm with 0.60. Also setting the CPU core as dynamic might help and upping the cycles to something like 10000

James That happens with more than a few games.

It's been a long time since I even touched DOSBox, but I think it has something to do with adjusting the framerate that makes it run smoother.

It should be in the readme that comes with the emulator.

Dr. Boogie Bah. I tried using it to play Terminal Velocity, but it ran too slowly, and when I tried turning the speed up, that just made matters worse. Same goes for Syndicate.

Dosbox

I've been using Dosbox to play all my old games and abandonware titles.

It's a awesome dos emulator for newer machines. For those that aren't in the loop here it is http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/news.php?show_news=1

You can adjust the speed and everything, it's a great little program.
