it's just made to look as if it is running on CGA. To pull that off would need to - cgamap, a 256-byte table with one of 16 colors to map to - a decent x86 ASM screen blitter algorithm to calculate which of these to choose in 640x200 CGA - a re-port of DOOM using Hexen sources as a DOS platform …

If you had the latest DOSBox, automatic maximum cycles and dynamic core would kick in when you run it, for maximum performance and all. could it be possible to of downloaded poor versions of these shooters? Yes. "Abandonware" is not supported. I use output=ddraw, try that. OS X don't have DirectX

make .bat files or .lnks with -conf blahgame.conf and at the end of each conf you want just do your usual mounts and runs. Since it's a USB stick you should use relative paths (i.e. ..\games\sexman\) and maybe use physfs read-only so you don't write to your stick (i.e. mount C ..\games\sexman.zip)
