Hi.

I'm a new user, but i've been using dosbox for ages now. So, first of all, a big thank you and congratulations to all of those behind the development of such great software.

Now, about the subject of this topic. There are a few games that i've played inside dosbox and that i've just realized they are not listed on your supported games page.

I've played quite a bit to them and have encountered no issues so far, so please feel free to add them if you see fit. I am using dosbox 0.65 on both windows and linux. I'm sorry, but i can't tell you if the games were supported already in older versions of dosbox.

So, the games are:

Microsoft Decathlon
PC-Man
Space Strike
Starcross

All of them were released in 1982.

I will add more games to the list above soon, as i'm sure you're missing quite a few more. I just want to make sure they are indeed playable before reporting them here.

Oh, one more thing. I've compiled dosbox's sources on a x86_64 linux distro (ubuntu edgy eft, to be more precise) and everything runs beautifully. Perhaps you can add in your page that the linux sources work on both 32 and 64 bit machines.

Cheers and thanks again for this little miracle of modern science!

Ah, great. That's much easier indeed. 😀
I thought only the crew could do that.

Thanks.
