The Voodoo2 option fixes the blocky blood displayed by buggy Voodoo 2 display drivers, according to the manual. The game always uses Direct3D 6.

The problem exists since day 1 on this game. I've played it on various hardware (Voodoo 3, GeForce 4, ...) and Windows versions (Windows 98SE, XP, Vista, Seven, Windows 10), I *always* had to play in 640x480.

Hello, Thanks a lot for BoxedWine, it's an incredibly interesting approach to make old games work again ! :D Fascinating, really. I had tried to run Wine directly inside WSL 1/2 but performance was horrible of course. I see 3D games on the project's page, I'm very curious about their performance …

We're quite lucky that it's English that is the modern lingua franca. It's rather simple as far as languages go (its slightly tricky phonetics notwithstanding). If it was a language with non-rudimentary conjugation, declension etc., our life would be much more difficult. The truth is that English …

Boats and ships are humanized too. And some other stuff, I guess. Noun genders don't exist, unless they do. English has no rules. Pah !

I have no nostalgia for the Atari ST. It was always an inferior platform with terrible sound, with mediocre games and mediocre ports of Amiga games.

DoTT is much better. MM is way too hard. But I still Maniac Mansion Deluxe is the only good way to play MM.

I need to get Windows ME on a machine of mine, but I don't have any that is both a) compatible b) not-compatible with Real Mode DOS games with sound I don't know why, but WinME attracts me.

I believe that the "proper era" playing device for Doom is keyboard only. Although I've played many FPS with keyboard+mouse, I feel like cheating when doing so in Doom. Also, I believe that being proud of playing FPS with a gamepad is like being proud of driving a scooter. https://www.youtube.com/ …

DOSBox gave us DOS without endless suffering from "not enough conventionnal memory" errors. For that alone, it's a godsend.

Hello UCyborg :) Sorry, I did not see your post in time. I made it work with _inmm.dll instead. That's what I use nowadays. Maintaining my own fork didn't make much sense when _inmm just works everytime. Even if it requires more setup. Do you prefer Ogg-Winmm instead ? If you insist, I'll look into …

There's BoxedWine or QEMU, too. I'd try the first one, first.
