Hi Josh,
All of the DOS games you described were developed by me and Carl when we
were known as Personal Computer Systems.
I don't mind you distributing the games as they never had registratio keys
to keep people from copying themn and giving them out to friends.
The instructions file did state that this copying would prevent us from
developing new games with no registration system.
However I amnot giving nay help in trying to get the games to work on
today's computers.
They were writen and designed specifilly for computers running Windows 98
with a hardware speech synthesizer such as DEC talk or Double Talk.
Several of the games used the PC speaker as a major part of the sound
creating part and would be difficult to play without that feature.
I think today's computers have done away with the PC speaker that was
supposed to just mak a beep when your computer was booting.
My plan was to convert some of thos games to Windows but the long Sarah game
development has delayed this.
My next Windows game will be a combination of Cops and Shoot.
I do not plan on doing a Windows version of Baseball or Football right now
as those games already have accessible windows versions from other
companies.

Subject: [Audyssey] old dos games here they are!
hi everyone!
I have them! I have fully registered copies of
any night football and its update
world series baseball and its update
fox-hunt
mobius mountain
monopoly for dos by pcs games
and more! download them at.
http://www.sendspace.com/file/frot4d
if anyone has shoot97 or cops for dos we don't have those on floppy disks.
my friend jason brought a bunch of floppy disks and games were on them.
now the question is, will these games work best in a windows xp virtual
machine? or will the dos games work best in a vinux virtual machine with
orca and dosemu or a vinux vm with speakup in a console? and does speakup
support laptop layout?
most of these games are text with no sound, if any sound it comes through
the pc speaker. like beeps and stuff.
thanks
Josh
