Re: Worst DOS video card?

in DOS
Just like you said, they were very slow cards. Every budget PC had those cards, at least here in Greece.

Re: Bought these games today

in Milliways
Oh man, I felt so happy for you in that unboxing vid. Great stuff and this box brings back a lot of memories. You just made me feel quite nostalgic my man. :blush: I can also see that you're a Symphony of the Night fan, which is one of my favorite games of all time. I'll watch some of your videos …

Re: AWEstruck...

Damn. These are fantastic. So, does the game upload a SoundFont on the card or is this the 1MB ROM doing some kind of voodoo trickery? I always thought System Shock sounded amazing on the AWE, its purely electronic sound seemed to fit right in. Good examples of this is the Intro (on the floppy …

Re: Tyrian: Roland SC55 vs Yamaha MU80

in Milliways
Damn, these got me pumped up. I will now have to listen to some more Doom music. Thanks Keropi 😀 Personally, I can't notice any differences between this and the MU-50. If anyone has recordings of it and is willing to share, I'd love to be proven wrong, I haven't listened to it for sometime now.

Re: Tyrian: Roland SC55 vs Yamaha MU80

By the way, Tyrian on a original AWE32 sounds really dumb. So, objectively, Tyrian's wavetable-based MIDI playback is optimized for the EMU8000 chipset. Can you elaborate on what "sounds really dumb" means, or why the "original AWE32" is specifically mentioned? I have a few recordings available in …

Re: Ever get the feeling you missed the boat?

Mau1wurf teaching seems to suit you just fine. Are you teaching to children or students? I'm 20 and also studying Computer Science, which unfortunately isn't all that great. Computers are something you have to study out of curiosity and interest.

Re: Boxed Items

Here are most of my boxed games, I've had some rather exciting new additions since these photos were taken but whatever: http://s9.postimg.org/mpyx1k5xn/1008281_10201421300399064_1560346422_o.jpg http://s9.postimg.org/51769xu6j/1014949_10201421300839075_2072868633_o.jpg http://s9.postimg.org/ …

Re: How many (external) sound modules are enough?

in Milliways
I can see why emulation and playing on modern systems is a turn-off for a lot of people here. Over the last couple of years, I have been using my old PCs less and less. There are some games and things that you just cannot play on a modern system, so that's why I always keep a balanced system for …

Re: Show us your inner child

in Milliways
I seriously need to take a look at the family albums. I'm sure I have a couple of good ones :blush: Edit: Yeah, unfortunately I didn't have anything totally noteworthy. I only have my older brother playing Mortal Kombat 3 on our Pentium 133 and the two of us totally concentrated on playing X-Com …

Re: How many (external) sound modules are enough?

in Milliways
I only use my SC-7 with DOSBox on my primary PC. BASSMIDI has also been a blessing and MUNT has done some insane progress in the last few years, so much so that I don't need an MT-32 or CM-32. My retro PC has a DB60XG, so that's also covered.
