Play your favourite DOS Games
for those of you who were around for the DOS era.
Found a cool emulator called dosbox http://www.dosbox.com/ then download roms from http://www.doperoms.com I installed dosbox into c:\dosbox also created a games dir inside dosbox. when downloaded each rom and extracted into the games dir, all I did was launch dosbox and did a few lines (game i used to play on the pc) Quote:

Ummm what year is this? Queue the Back to the Future pics.
Just in case I'm caught in a time warp I'll impart this knowledge too, in case I'm whisked away by the aliens soon: - You can put CDs in a DVD drive. It will even read them. - There is a pulse/tone switch on many phones which lets you dial out if you're out in BFE without DTMF support - Many apps have support for .gifs still - If your car's A/C takes R12 you're not quite SOL - There is this thing called a parallel port which is a good place to hook up a printer If you need the horse results for the future, can't help you there. My nemory isn't _quite_ that good. Someone set us up the bomb! |

Wow...surprised you didn't know about DosBox fris. I've been playing old games with it for like 5+ years and it's the bomb. Good games w/ it are One Must Fall, Master of Orion, Alley Cat (for REAL old school), Knights of Xentar (fun hentai RPG), Hexen, Epic Pinball...there's a bunch.

DOSBox has been around for ages.

Very good times, those. And I still get a bit spooked when someone starts flailing around with a chain. |
