cyclone3d, I wasn't aware of a place called Value Village in Huntsville, is it worth checking out? Been to a bunch of flea markets in NE Bama and have yet to find any bounty. Goodwill's about the same unless you're in need of keyboards and the like.

Re: ZDoom LE (Legacy Edition)

Zdoom LE works great on my P3 system. Tried to add Brutal Doom V20 LE edition but I must be doing something wrong using the ZDL interface because the game slows to a crawl. Am I supposed to load both *.pk3 files? It ran fine just dragging one of them and dropping it on top of the zdoom.exe file …

That's what was thinking too, it doesn't have to be complicated just functional. Here's something regarding a HTPC that may warrant a look: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?I … N82E16883152372

Setting up an HTPC is a very subjective and personal experience. You'll want to choose hardware components that will interface well with your TV, receiver, speakers, etc. For example, I have an old 5.1 receiver that doesn't have any VGA, DVI, or HDMI connections. For video, I run DVI-out on my HTPC …

There's a patch for Voodoo 2 cards. Did you install that? Otherwise, the modern patch will help, too. Have not seen that one yet, just the Voodoo 3 variation. Looked at the V2 patch but it's for the Fast Voodoo drivers, I'm running latest ref. drivers so that's no go. Tried modern patch and so far …

I guess from the responses that it's common to pick hardware w/o gaming in mind? I was thinking about building something in a shuttle case with the latest I7 CPU and a 1070Ti GPU for an "all in one" solution. Also thinking of building a "lap table" for kb and mouse for some FPS sessions on the …

You're welcome! Sure, ZDoom LE should run fine there. You'll probably be able even to play with the GL renderer. I'd rather install to an empty folder and copy your iwads there. I recommend ZDL 3.1a (ZDoom Launcher). Thanks dondiego! So I guess ZDoom runs independently & doesn't need to be in …

NFS 3 Hot Pursuit post race freeze

Posted on 2018-04-13, 15:40

Game ran fine up until after a race when it went back to the options screen it froze - music playing in a loop, no keyboard or mouse, had to do a hard boot. Using a V2 sli with latest ref. drivers & DX7. Tried switching over to my GF3 and it ran no problem but it didn't look as good. Should I try …

Doom 2 what mods?

Posted on 2018-04-12, 14:46

Believe it or not just tried this game for the first time on my Win98SE rig and was wondering, are there any mods out there someone can recommend for adjusting the "eye candy" beyond 640 x 480 resolution. All I've found thus far is for modern systems -win10 and etc.

Need a new work PC for CAD so does anyone know which PC vendor that won't put all that "bloatware" crap on it? I could build one from scratch but don't have the time right now.

Been playing around with this idea for quite some time, as looking for a superior alternative to the Xbox1 X. Has anyone gone down this road using latest hardware? Like to see your comments about the experience and trials! Some thoughts to consider: Cooling issues? What OS is best? Does Win10 lend …
