Without reading the whole thread I guess I can't play those MPEG games if my machine has no Realmagic but a Matrox-Mystique with rainbow runner MPEG module?

Unfortunately, you can’t. But “Silent Steel” should run on any MPEG card! And of course many of those games could be run in DOSBox on a modern PC.

Not only do I have it - I have 2 copies. One jewel case, and one sealed box that I paid way too much for. I will dump it for sure, but I am constantly dumping things and it takes me time to get these things done. I dumped Conspiracy MPEG and RTZ MPEG originally, but things take me time.

It would still be nice to dump it! At least to compare with the newly found beta-version. I take it, the sealed box is the actual retail release?

Indeed, that is a great find! And there is an interesting story behind it: the beta-version was found by Justin Escobedo in a thrift store in 2023. It made its way to The World of CD-i and then to Hidden Palace.

The truth is that it is a game for Windows 3.1, not DOS. So it won't work in DOSBox that does not support DMA yet.

I have recorded a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwaBuUzMdhE
I am bad at such QTE games though 😀 I could never finish "Escape from CyberCity" either. So it is just a "Tour" and a couple of attempts at the very beginning...
The list of RM games is updated as well!

its posible to share via pm ? thanks
