Hello, I installed OS/2 on the Pentium 2 build, but it seems that only few DOS games are working properly, most of them are crashing with a DosRaiseException error, of which I can't find any info online.
Now, for those who know OS/2, executables come with a lot of properties that I can change in order to make them run DOS differently, but I can't find anything online on which settings I should alter for Duke Nukem 2, Shadow Warrior, Bio Menace and a lot other games, to not make them crash anymore!
Ironically, Windows 3.11 games seem to be working just fine, I even got full 256 colors support and sound working, it's only DOS games that are giving me so many tribulations...
I just noticed that for some reason, DOS games' setups aren't saving the changes I make on them, but when I inspect the folders, they're not read only 🤔
I'm a super noob at OS/2, but I like it and wanted to try it
