funny enough, they're a bad idea for Win9x too because even when you get a 'classic text mode' through full screen dos prompt or the Blue Screen of Death(tm), you'll get a black screen computer hang. This had only really started happening in their drivers since somewhere around late 2001.

If that were true then why is Blood everywhere, even on the Gli2DOS site when it could be purchased from an online store? They aren't doing their job at "respecting the developers" enough. Abandonware sites are a JOKE and rarely have rarities 🙄

Well, nothing special in my config except all the sound device rates are up to 44100, ram is 32mb and gus is disabled. Everything else is pretty much default.

Rules are rules. Abandonware sites are all darkish gray areas mostly because they just put stuff up what they believe is 'abandoned' rahter than officially complying with the developer, publisher, etc. Not only do they suck for that, but for tampering the archives too with their own save games, …

I'm afraid to report that the horrible proprietary s3 3d apis are not emulated yet, probably because of two factors: - way too few games utilized virge API - s3 makes horrible 3d cards anyway

Are you sure your sound settings are correct? Epic Pinball and Silverball run fine here with 0.70 without a problem with video and sound.

You don't need a game specific guide for this. I could probably code a php web site that has a "guide to playing blah on dosbox" by using simple word replacing.

jfSW has fatal crashes in areas (especially mirrors) and has broken multiplayer though. For stability I still recommend DOSBox with SW.

Future Shock uses a resolution of 320x200, always. It's no game specific bug. The SkyNET bug could be related to a bad rip, because it's flawless when you install from CD (HMMM)

1.3D was the initial retail release. No, it doesn't support 3d accelleration. Yes, there's ports, and this one is the most well known one http://jonof.edgenetwork.org The most advanced one is eduke32 of course http://www.eduke32.com Both ports use Ken's POLYMOST and render the game in OpenGL ( …

I doubt a DN3D 3dfx patch ever existed. For that there's ports (but it's not the funny glitchy 1.3d version though but beats no acceleration at all)
