hehe. Well totally depends on the game you want to run.

some games can be run on full framerate.

OK for example Doom2. I have PIII800 and it runs unplayable. Wich cpu i need to run ... i will have P4 3.06 ghz is it adequate ?

probably.

Why run Doom2 under dosbox anyway? It runs 100% under any OS with the sourceports (legacy, jdoom, boom etc).

Yes, but not under WinXP. 🙁

Have a look at Vavoom or Prboom (please use Google to find out the exact url) ;these should work under XP ....

OK thx a lot !! And doom 1 ? 😀)))

It should also run under prboom/vavoom , note that also the 'heretic' wad files work with vavoom,

The idea is that this is a PC/DOS emulator and therefore any program written for DOS will eventually work in it, regardless of whether or not there is a source port. Yeesh. 😒

Doomsday is also another great one. Runs Doom,Doom2, Heretic and Hexen in super fancy graphics. Runs under any OS to my knowledge.

Thank you. It works perfectly !! Now i can play doom with cross and with mouse 😀)

Doom Legacy works fine under XP as well.

I`d recommend download the Doom64 TC that only works in Doomsday on a side note, if you`d like to see Doom looking even fancier than it already does under Jdoom. Best TC I`ve played in months.

Running DOOM under DOSBox with 12500 cycles (about the highest I can go without sound cracking up) on my P4 3 GHz its like playing it on a 486 33 MHz, ie about 20 fps.

and what about viewing demos (game recordings) with the original doom ?

predator: use prboom - compatibility with original .exe demos is very high, virtually all will play.
