DOS Games Discussion

Hello

I'm looking for a point and click adventure game similar to that of Snatcher that was on the Sega CD?

I am looking for one that is based in the future and the player is a detective or similar that has to solve puzzles and look for clues and stuff

I don't know if this is the correct place to post this or not but here goes I run a games site on the Internet for my Retroplay project thats a self contained USB gaming system based off of FreeDOS and I have downloads for shareware versions of Dosgames on there and soon I want to e-mail companys an...

Retroplay 1.0 is now released and is available for download off of the Retroplay website this is the release version and will be the only version if/ever there is ever a 2.0 www.retroplay.cjb.net All issues from the release candidate have been fixed including the issue some people had booting Retrop...

I don't think posting this reply counts as bumping ... No problemo. BTW: A serial or a PS/2 mouse(USB mice don't work unless legacy mouse is set in your BIOS or on an adapter) Damn, not many still have a a non-USB mouse ......I would even say more: on most newer mobos you can't connect a PS/2 mouse...

Ok status update and preview of what will be the 1.0 version of Retroplay I don't think posting this reply counts as bumping as this project is still very active infact almost complete too(Took longer than I had anticipated but its pretty much done just need to get feedback and finish setting up the...

Status update:I am almost completely done creating Retroplay now I am just doing some testing and I am expecting a release sometime in March. Retroplay is a portable gaming system on a USB drive for playing all kinds of classic retro games such as Duke Nukem,Doom, Jill Of The Jungle and many more ga...

...... seems you try to reinvent what's already exist, the123zach: http://geekdos.weebly.com/ And the stuff runs pretty good I must say. Not that I would run it on a modern PC, but if you have an older PC or laptop laying around gathering dust it's a good applic to blow new life in it. thats nothin...

dosbox? Complex? It's about as easy to use as a toaster. I can't really think of too many ways to make it *more* N00b friendly. Maybe for someone who knows what they are doing, great. But for those that dont know anything when it comes to Dos and old computers than they will have a hard time with D...

Sure Dosbox is cool but since its an emulator and not the real thing it doesn't have 100% compatibility and it is anything but n00b friendly. So Retroplay will be a great alternative to DosBox and will even be able to be used by people who get scared off by Dosbox's complexity and even by people who...

Actually all iv been using my USB boot disk on is latest hardware that trailer their was shot using latest dual core 2.7ghz amd with 2gb of ram. I don't know where you get this idea about it not running on the latest systems and have you ever heard of the boot menu press esc or something select the ...

You have some valid points but overall I wouldn't call Dosbox n00b friendly especially when it comes to people who have never even used Dos before.

well anyways I have made a trailer and put it up on Youtube

It goes one better. It's used inside of the box, hence the name. :) What does Retroplay do that DOSBox doesn't, and how would it be beneficial? Well for starters its portable so it can be used on a usb stick and used from computer to computer and it can play games that dosbox cant like games that r...

one advantage is that most people don't have floppy drives now a days. another advantage is that you can start playing a game on one computer and then take it to another computer and continue playing where you left off. It can be easily used by people who don't even know what Dos is since it has a m...

I am currently looking for Beta testers to test beta versions of Retroplay if interested in testing post in this topic with the following info How much Ram do you have? What is your favorite dos game? MSN/E-Mail/other that i can contact you besides this forum: How much experience do you have being a...

Quick question, how do you plan on slowing certain games down? I don't all the games i plan on releasing as game disks dont need to be slowed down and if your talking about the Runtime error 200 error on some games i have found a workaround by patching the exe files using a program i found off the ...

Hey I am creating this bootable usb boot disk for playing DOS games that is a public disk i am making called Retroplay and I thought i'd share it with Dosgames.com forums. This is based off DOS 7.10 for playing old DOS games. This isnt any old boot usb stick though its a whole new os like experience...
