I try to download or make myself all my favourite apps and games portable. Aga then it makes my life more easier.

Well almost all source ports and emulators and open source stuf is or can be made portable.

But i have managed to make many games portable.

Few of them:

CC Tiberian Dawn full and demo. And i have managed to make them use the same resources.
CC Red Alert
CC Tiberian Sun
CC Red Alert 2
CC Renegade
Return to Castle Wolfenstein
Half-Life (Source)
Half-Life 2
Quake 2
Wolfenstein 2004
and many more....

I am aroused about any X86 motherboard that has full functional ISA slot. I think i have problem. Not really into that original (Turbo) XT,286,386 and CGA/EGA stuff. So just a DOS nut.
PS. If I upload RAR, it is a 16-bit DOS RAR Version 2.50.

I don't really get what this post is really about. Games have always been portable from the first time I put a 3.5" floppy disk in my pocket...

There's a glitch in the matrix.

Apparently 32-bit is dead and nobody likes P4s.
Of course, as always, I'm open to correction...😉

Windows version or game version?

One game i have not got to make portable is Warcraft 2 BNE, it needs some registry entries. Maybe one day i will make a REG file and make it also portable.
