A bit of Retro feeling for the weekend 😁

A little gameplay video of Wing Commander showing you what this game sounded like with a Roland MT-32 midi module.

Although I have vintage hardware that can run this game, recording the in-game footage is much easier through DOSBox. DOSBox passes the midi messages through a USB to midi adapter into the MT-32. Unlike DOSBox Adlib and Sound Blaster Emulation, in this case a real MT-32 is playing the music and sound, preserving the authenticity.

Amigaz this should be quite familiar right? 😜

Nice! pure porn!

But you're cheating by using a "simulator" instead of the real thing 😎

Yup it's a compromise...

Though I believe the better video quality and much easier editing (Audio and video is in sync without any cut and pasting) is worth it.

Thanks! More to come for sure. But I don't want to do them all in one hit. One at a time. Plenty of time and I don't want to rush it 😀
