Re: Considering some new games but I have concerns

in Milliways
heh. There's a patch to remove the NOCD and authentication for BioShock. You don't even have to contact the internet. I wouldn't have bought it if I wasn't certain that there would be a patch to do so. In fact Bioshock is what caused me to change my stance on not buying products that require …

Re: Considering some new games but I have concerns

Well as far as STEAM is concerned there are STEAM emulators which will allow you to play and install the games without having to worry about going online. I've always heard about them but have never bothered trying them out. Thinking about picking up the Orange Box today and trying them. If I the …

Re: Error 129?

We can not suggest Abandonware games in here because we do not support Abandonware. You can download plenty of shareware and freeware games from the 3DRealms site that run fine in DosBox.

Re: harddisc images under dosbox do NOT work!

I'm locking this thread. These are the official DosBox forums where we only offer support for official DosBox. We do not support the PSP. We do not really offer support for running Windows in DosBox. Go bother the person who ported DosBox to the PSP to implement some hacked together solution to …

Re: Got Dungeon Keeper 2 working in Vista 64bit today!

This site mentions the same issue: http://www.vistagamedoctor.com/Game.aspx?GameId=112 They don't specify wether they are using XDDM or WDDM drivers so they are likely using WDDM drivers. Looking more and more like a WDDM issue. Confirms my stance on maintaining 2 lists for XDDM/WDDM for Vista on my …

I don't believe DK2 supports Glide but I could be wrong. In the documentation there is mention of software mode and that's what your doing when you turn off hardware acceleration. This was tested on a Intel 945gm graphics chipset on a Dell D520 laptop with WDDM video drivers. Haven't tried it with …

Oh yeah! 1. Install v1.70 update. 2. Run the game in XP compatibility mode. 3. Turn off hardware acceleration in the in-game menu. 4. Bump the res to 1024x768 in the in-game menu. 5. Play the game! If you don't turn off hardware acceleration then you may experience graphics corruption in the game. ( …

Re: Share your 3D accelerator nostalgia here

in Milliways
Never did think that much of the early 3D cards. I had a 486 DX4/100 up until 1998 with a Cirrus Logic video card with 2mb VRAM and it played everything I wanted to play. I think I remember downloading a beta or demo copy of Half-Life and being unable to play it which is when I really knew that I …
