Check the changelog and you'll see updates. http://source.dosbox.com/dosboxsvn.txt Also the next release of DOSBox is being worked on and will be released....eventually. There is also work being done for 9x …

I'm fine with it as long as it brings the simplicity of modern consoles to PC as an OPTION and not something forced upon us. As we all know options mean more money required for development and testing when it's far simpler to not offer a option and force one method. This can be seen by operating …

I personally would never by such a system. I have my 24inch monitor and my comfy computer chair so I don't see a couch and a tv as increasing my enjoyment to play games. I also convert all my steam games to offline copies every time I purchase one and I don't see a steam box making that easier. But …

Re: shadows of the empire & x-wing alliance?

X-Wing Alliance is most likely a video driver/hardware issue since D3D worked on 7 64bit with a XPS M1330 back when I tested the demo in 2010. Intel driver: 15.12.75.4.64.1930 Nvidia driver: 8.17.11.9581 Most likely the game was using the Intel chipset. It also worked back in 2008: Tested 2-16-2008 …

Cleaned up and organized the inside of my desktop case, upgraded hard drives and video card and upgraded to 8.1. Only thing left to do is redo my laptop and I'll …

Bought the Geforce 780 after Nvidia discounted it when the 290 was released. I've been playing Shadow Warrior (2013) with it and full details at 1920x1200 with no issues and didn't even hear the video card over the ambient noise. Finished Shadow Warrior today and hopefully I can finish Minverva's …

Re: Will there ever be a practical WindowsBox program?

Well Windows 3.x is freely available to all on the internets. It's just not legal. I remember back in the day there were demos of MS software that used a stripped down copy of Windows 3.x to just execute the software. It may be possible to get away with that but I'm not sure. The Win9x setup uses …
