Re: [Audyssey] football and baseball
Hi Josh, Yes, and my Windows games that started out as dos games still have most of the code from the dos versions. That is why they are similar. But I can do much more with sounds in VB6 and DirectX than I could with a third party wave file player program in dos. As I said a couple of days ago, my Life game has line numbers from back when I wrote it in GWBasic. Or maybe it was even BasicA on an IBM PC Jr. BFN Jim Toto, I don't think we're in DOS anymore... j...@kitchensinc.net http://www.kitchensinc.net (440) 286-6920 Chardon Ohio USA --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

[Audyssey] football and baseball
hi jim, I see your point here in not changeing your games too much. Me and my friends grew up with them back in the early 90s through the 2000s and now into the 2000 teen years. If the games are changed and stuff then they won't be the games me, jason and dennis grew up with. in fact once jason brings his disks with the old dos games on them, then we could play those in a windows xp virtual machine or a vinux4 vm with dosemu. even your dos games are similar to the windows ones. in fact I would say especially football baseball golf and some others like the casino are collectors or classics now. and I am so glad I got them working in windows7. I guess when I get a windows8 machine i'll be installing swamp running the .bat file to register dll files and stuff putting all your games into my documents to make sure they work and should be able to play them far into the future.
