No problem 😀 Even in mouselooking source ports like Zdoom I still play it with only the arrow keys 🤣

Yeah, mislabeling with GPL illegally is much akin to hexediting copyrighted games to say PUBLIC DOMAIN in the 80's so it's warez that's spread from no guilt and a lack of awareness, unfortunately getting it more mass-distributed lumped in with genuine public domain/GPL software. The only DOS 7.1 I …
Re: What is the main use of old, virtual Windows systems?

I also use virtual machines for running certain DOS compilers where DOSBox can't really support due to the LFN requirement.

Battlespire's music is CD audio. Mount your CD-ROM drive with the CD in it for it to work.

Have you crosschecked with other emulators like PCem?

Also the only Quake that runs "way too fast" are the original DOS builds.

There's also added/changed sound effects, and the Xwing Collector's CD has different FM timbres.

VirtualPC 2007? For me, VirtualBox wouldn't even be a thought for any Win9X OS. Also what games would these be?

Doom had default , . for dedicated strafe keys yes. Much easier to play Doom that way.

edit id1/autoexec.cfg , add +mlook , done, no sourceport needed. generally players don't use strafe modifiers, that's a Wolf3D holdover. Dedicated strafe Left/Right keys FTW

the Q3 PS2 port is full detail and 60fps, also supports widescreen so :) Even the KYRO II has shortcomings that wouldn't make much difference to the Dreamcast. and I do remember a very character driven marketing blitz for DC around launch. PS2/PS3 on the other hand was too dadaist for that, but …

Thanks 😀 I always hated managing .theme files just for transporting simple color schemes. Windows 7 made this worse.

Aren't the QuestStudios music just converted captures made for use on midi modules?

If the slow UT and Q3A ports on the Dreamcast are any indication... 😀

The Dreamcast/Naomi/etc systems owe a lot of performance to the crazy SH-4 assembly though. PowerVR CLX2 itself is quite weak IMO. A 3dfx Dreamcast would've just been as awesome, or maybe more capable since it's not held back by tile refresh techniques, could've had a longer life that way since …

Win8 introduced a lot of regressions that hamper playability though, it's beyond just the 'emperor's new clothes' and has little about 'wow you guys should die for not accepting change'. Like for example, Gamemaker games crashing if they play more than 4 samples at once. The games themselves that …

I love C 😀 could care less about C++ though new 'easy high-level' languages like Java, Ruby, Python, .net C# etc. i'm not too thrilled about. The overhead is nasty DISCLAIMER: Former BASIC 'programmer' *cough*was one of those kids that retyped numbered lines from 'make games!!!' books*cough*
Re: Voodoo graphics cards, what's so special?

That's more of a preview. Rage128 had a 1999 launch and should be competent enough to run GLQuake at a very smooth framerate. It's one of the cards I test OA on and I get 40-70fps at most areas and that's a much higher poly and very asset inefficient game. And yes, 3dfx's rise is something that …
