but look,to make windows versions of these games it will take monts, and it's really simple, make a file explaining the steps that the user have to do to be able to run the games,and explain that since it was a collection of old games, you aren't going to give support / answer to questions related to the games, and that if it doesn't works, to the user simple don't play it. and still, if you are going to make windows versions of these games it will take more time from you, that's even worse bekause you will do something again that's already finished. a lot of peoples want these games, they sayd here, on the klango forums, even created a petition.
-----Mensagem original----- De: "Phil Vlasak" <[email protected]> Para: "Gamers Discussion list" <[email protected]> Data: Domingo, 2 de Agosto de 2009 18:28 Assunto: Re: [Audyssey] dos games again Hi Josh, I know there are a few people who can still play the old PCS DOS games but giving all my DOS games away for free would not be a good business move as I plan to make windows versions of many of them. Also despite putting a notice that I would not support them, I am sure to get hundreds of messages complaining that the games don't work on their computers. If another game developer is willing to collaborate and help me produce windows versions of my old games I would welcome any contact. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Josh" <[email protected]> To: "gamers list" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, August 02, 2009 5:03 PM Subject: [Audyssey] dos games again > hello, > the following is a klango forum post about classic dos games. also if > anyone knows if any night football for dos works in windows I'd like to > have the full copy of that game, along with full copy of world series > baseball for dos. > > And now, for even "more" good news!
