DOS Games Discussion

No idea, but they're probably all demos... possibly came with a soundcard, since it's Creative... and I don't think they ever made videocards. lol. Not sure what it would come from, though... something that was sold in 1994 around 1994, I'd assume, though. hahaha No, all of them are the full games....

Explain.

I cant find anything on this, but mabey you guys can:



I have no information on it, and I want to know where it came from. I also want to know if it had the manuals.

The rumors are true: id Software titles are coming to Steam. According to a press release from Valve, starting today you will be able to download titles from the Quake, Doom, HeXen, Woflenstein and (huzzah!) Commander Keen series. More than 20 titles will be available; additionally, many of the fra...

Ok, so a while I got WC and I love it. One of the best games ever made, though I'm not done with it yet. Anyways, so every time I go to the menu, it says "Play The Secret Missions" even though the only info I can find (Which is here) says there is no Secret Missions in it. But then again, ...

I was looking through my floppy disk archive today just to see what I have, and we have a floppy image labeled "Linux Anti-Virus software". I wonder if it ever got a chance to work....

Havent played very many of them, but I loved and still do love SimCity classic. Even though I mainly played it on OS7.5.3 when we had our old LC II out, the copy we had was on CD and came with the 3.1 and DOS version. But if I had to choose a different one, Lemmings or Wing Commander would be it.

No. DOSBox emulates DOS, which is very hard to work with since you need to do everything for it.

Ok, yesterday my brother and me were backing up remaining floppy disk with a nifty little Linux program my brother made. It makes images of floppies and put them on a usb flash drive. We were able to successfully (at least with out any disk read errors) back up the MS-DOS 5.0 installer, the Windows ...

Ok, there's a text file on what version everything is, another text file which is copyright crap, something called "COPYRIT.SCR" which I'm guessing is more copyright crap, the CDGAMES.exe, and a CDGAMES.PAC which when I open it in Notepad it list every file on the CD. The thing that sucks ...

Ok, a week ago I bought this and it came yesterday. I tried to .bat a program "ORIGIN" which redirected me to a .exe called "CDGAMES" (normally I wouldnt bring this up, but Ultima 6 and WC have their own installers so I'm now really sure what it is). Everything was pretty hunky d...

Actually I arrived only 5 minutes before the store opened. I was 22 out of 24 people able to get one.

I gots mine on launch day. Here's mine:

7608 5459 8698 7979

I'll ad yours as soon as I can! (my bro sleeps on the couch in the living room. That's where my Wii is)

Ok, a while ago my family made images of all the floppies we had so we could through them away (400 take up a lot of room). I noticed a game called "Indianapolis 500-The Simulation", but didnt think it was anything special. Then today I ran across it on Mobygames and it's got some good rev...

Ok, I'm on fist mission with a rapier and I keep dying. My fighter is too slow and I can never keep up with the enemy. I try shooting long distance, but I always shoot too far ahead or the enemy changes course and the shots just go right by them. Please help me, I cant get past this mission and it's...

I knew of somekind of a fansite with some more tricks, patches and stuff, must look for it ..... I'll be back. (Don't hold your breath). *Edit Found it, lots to read, so you will be happy. For starters: http://www.wcnews.com/techsupport.shtml Some more stuffies and patches: http://www.wcnews.com/fi...

I don't need to pirate that one, I own it! :P Although, the guy I bought it from gave me a story like "It fell off a truck, dude!" but who gives a damn? :rolleyes: My brother and my dad met someone like that on the light rail when we were at San Diego California on vacation. From what I h...

This. Plus I only live 70 miles away from that guy, so I can get like 5th class mail and get it in a week.

Hey, I gots my eyes on something you could never get by pirating. So you can go jump off a bridge when you see it.

Ok, I figured out how to calibrate the Joystick (it was buried in the tutorial section of the manual as a note), but every time I get to a place with enemies DOS Box crashes. I tried the same mission with mouse and it was fine. Any guesses?
