So I got DosBox to work with Monkey Island, but I do not know how to save. Can anyone tell me how to save with Dosbox??? Thanks a bunch! While I don't remember how exactly to save a SCUMM game (I don't play SCUMM game too much, and the last time I played one was somewhere around 1998), there's …

2D games are mostly composed of 2D images. You can't show these at higher resolution unless you'd resample them. Exactly what I mean. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but after seeing the screenshots, it seems to me that ninjaplease's "higher resolution modding" doesn't resample the game screen --it's …

I'm in the process of modifying Pacific General for this very purpose. How did you do that, exactly? It seems you modified the game codes instead of tinkering with DirectX, am I correct? Also, in 3D games, increasing the resolution means scaling up (smoothing up) the resolution, while what you did …

Not any time soon, if ever. (Not made of money). It's nice to have the option tho. I'm just thinking: do you plan to the system exclusively for Vista, or do you plan a Vista/XP dual boot? By the way, how compatible GeForce 8800 series with older games like WarCraft III or Quake III engine? Do you …

Is there such thing as a Raedon Patch???? There's no Voodoo patch (IIRC Hyperblade already supports the original Voodoo …

Options -t (type) specifies the type of the mount. Supported types are dir (default), floppy and cdrom. -label (drivelabel) sets the label of the drive. This is needed on some systems if the CD label isn't read correctly. It may be useful when a program can't find its CD-ROM. -aspi forces to use …

Wait: I have an application that runs in DOSBox on a Mac (OS 10.3.9). and: I used mount e /volumes/TestCD -t cdrom -ioctl to mount the CD Rom. So, you're running DOSBox on a Mac, yet you're using ioctl switch. Frankly, I've never ran DOSBox on Mac before, but isn't ioctl for Win2K/XP only ? How …

As long as the new game is not 3D (which is getting rarer and rarer nowadays), I haven't experienced any difficulties running on old system (RAM size aside). Heroes IV of Might and Magic is an example --it runs quite comfortably on my Duron 500 MHz system.

X-Com Apocalypse is a Win9x game, and as far as I know, there's no Win9x emulator on WinXP. I'm sorry KAN - but I think there was only some kind of installation routine for X-COM APOCA under Win95, so you could install and also (in a dos-box) play the game under win95, but the game itself is a DOS- …
