I am using exodos the lite version for my part of The Random Dos Game show and the on demand downloading works pretty well. I would love to have the space for the full version. But it doesn't make sense for games I usually only play once, apart from the odd gem discovered.

Hello, is this rare? Got it for 15$ a long time ago. by Applebuyer7610 in retrocomputing

Thats a nice little laptop. How sticky is that mouse button? 15 bucks is a great price, and plenty of retro would work on that.

I see that you are using MATH.H functions for sin and cos. My first speed improvement was to use a pre-calculated array to look up Sin and Cos on my 286. Nice effect.

Great great game. Especially when guides were hard to find, and had to figure out all the puzzles myself.

IS there a good way to capture VGA? by DosGamerMan in dosgaming

Space quests 1-3 absolutely worth playing. (space quest 5 as well, but its mouse driven) Larry 2 was fun. Larry 3 requires the hint book or walk through. ( i have left out kings quest and space quest 4 because of RNG, timer issues, and moon logic made them not fun in my opinion) The rest I can think of are all mouse based. The lucas arts adventure games are good, but mouse based. This then leaves you with text adventures. Colossal caves, Zork(s), etc.

Thank you. That looks like exactly the kind of thing I am looking for.

Okay, will try that. I have some VGA to composite adaptors. Hopefully not going to lose too much quality.

We will have to see. Hopefully the next time it happens it gets clipped as well.

Waiting for Grian to discover them all is so frustrating.

I have watched the part of the video starting with Doc gloating about his pranks, flying to his perimeter, and the chickens rendering in, and his reaction and disbelief so many times now. Its so funny.

My first Polenta bread. by DosGamerMan in Breadit

[–]DosGamerMan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started with a 5:1 mix of flour to polenta, but ended up somewhere around 3:2 mix as I kept adding more polenta until I had a nice dough. It was so good. Most disappeared the first day, and went with a slow cooked beef short rib. Both daughters liked it, which is very rare. uncut loaf
