<t>I actually gave this game a whirl a couple years ago using wine. About the same time, a team over at scummVM started building a plugin to run bladerunner. The graphics aren't really that bad if you're into adventure games, and using filtered upscaling would probably be enough.[url]https://wiki ...

<r>Well, it's been a long, slow crawl to this point from my last rig, but here it goes... CPU: i7-2600 -- quad 3.4ghz (lovingly donated from a scrapped workstation, works perfectly fine in this mobo, reguardless of what dell has to say about it)Motherboard: 0GDG8Y -- inspiron 620s (donated via ...

<t>it feels pretty good, but i have yet to try this an anything besides descent3looking forward to veterans free week on vendetta online, thoughthe upwards motion tends to be more of a pinch between the ball and base... attaching them solidly would certainly change this dynamic since they dont weigh ...

<t>@tsmspacethe spherical rubberized orb can be manipulated in full 6dofi am simply ignoring undesired or inadvertent input from half of the axis (rx,ry,rz on one, x,y,z on the other)they are functional as a full 6dof controllers individually, but they are very sensitive and crosschannel input will ...

<t>Those are called "reverse buckets" for the record. Must not have gotten that pushback they wanted...one would be well advised to familiarize one's self with the current mapping of said reverse buckets before attempting to land a learjet in juneau (terrestrial flight simulation, in my case ...

<t>Well I saw no mention of this old gem around here so I thought I would bring it up, and give it away! Well... not me, but the ever-awesome ARCHIVE.ORG will, of course.<br/>

Big thanks to The Internet Archive / wayback ...

<t>Just FYI, the patch won't work with "NoCD" executables (so they say)<br/>

And I don't think Pirate's Moon is patchable either, but I have yet to try manually patching the pm exe (or playing Pirate's Moon AT ALL for that matter)<br/>

But 1080p runs flawlessly... unless you want to ...

<t>Dxx-rebirth is *basically* the original. Seems every effort has been made to keep the original "feel" while still taking (some) advantage of newer hardware.<br/>

If you REALLY want the old 640x480 or even 320x240 without the colored lighting effects, multisampling, anti-aliasing and ...

<t>Looks like mw3 is old enough to vote now (even though it is a felon) and it seems there's some other die-hards still out there.<br/>

<t>EDIT:<br/>
<br/>
Turns out I may have jumped the gun on this... seems like it's just an 8 player addition to Robo-Anarchy, not real Co-Op. My apologies.<br/>
<br/>
Slit screen DOES work, btw. I've tested 5player, and my "cadets" and I have played most of the game through in 3player split-screen a ...

<t>Redistribution *shouldn't* be a problem, since it appears CHIP is re-re-redistributing them.<br/>
the "megapack" is "mirrored" on archive.org and the article links to this abandonware site on the right side of the page.<br/>

<t>Wow, looks awesome...<br/>

The interface style is superb, very shuttle like.<br/>

I messed with orbiter back around 2002-2004? but abandoned windows all together right around that same time frame, but I have spent some hours in the shuttle cockpit with flightgear since giving up on ...

The videos of the progress you've made on this is amazing... the gas giants are insanely impressive.
Incredibly inspiring, I love it!

holy crap that was a pain! wordpress just shaking it's ugly head back and forth, forcing me to do arithmatic... and questioning my spelling of arithmatic...i did eventually get to a point where it would just shake it's head at me and NOT give me an error message...hope that's all over now

<t>Unfortunately I have been out of comms range for quite a while, literally off the grid building semi-remote here in Alaska. Enough excuses. It may take an hour to read through and adjust dosbox-XX.conf , but aside from too much upscaling eyecandy (probably not a problem for most computer owners ...

crazy! i was up all night typing up thoughts about an idea i suddenly had for a game with a similar basic concept (so it seems from the vid)how weird!
