Love the idea of this project!

Would love to see these games supported:

Jurassic Park (Done) Skyroads (Done) Skyroads - Xmas Special (Done) Hocus Pocus (Done) Chex Quest (Done) Chex Quest 2 (Done) Blake Stone Alien Carnage (Done, Added) Mystic Towers Duke Nukem I + II (Done, Added) Commander Keen 6 (Done, Added) Keen Dreams The Simpsons (Done, Added) Tyrian (Done) One Must Fall 2097 Wacky Wheels Mega Man X NHL Hockey Jill of the Jungle

Edit: I started putting some of these together myself and submitting them. "Done" means I have it done or someone else did it, but it hasn't been added to 0MHz yet. "Done, Added" means it's been added to 0MHz!

Here are a few games I'd love to see supported:

Might and Magic 4+5 - World of Xeen (CD Version) Master of Magic Return to Zork Betrayal at Krondor Lands of Lore: The Throne of Chaos

This is a deep cut, so maybe if you're going for "games that are common" it's not high up the list, but if you want "games that are great, and not available on any other cores", I would say The Gene Machine.

Really great and underloved point and click adventure that's perfect for the platform since you could play it with just a controller and it's kinda unusual: Video

Is there anything we can do to help generate config files?

The Horde, Dungeon Keeper, GTA London

Alien Carnage wouldn't work properly for me but if you can provide it, working, we will put it in.

Alexroseajr commented 3 months ago

I have some more suggestions on top of Gene Machine after thinking about it. Dunno which of these work and which don't but I was trying to think of some classics. +1 for Dungeon Keeper btw

So, I apparently was able to get this game working decently well in the core before by using the following settings:

That said, it wasn't 100% perfect, but it was really playable that way.

Would love to see the original EGA/CGA versions of some Sierra games made available instead of just the VGA re-releases, like Space Quest 1 and Hero's Quest/Quest for Glory 1. For many folks these are preferable to the remakes for various reasons, myself included.

Hey that worked great. Many thanks. Alien Carnage is now added!

Excellent!!

Also, can you let me know how I can submit new VHDs/MGLs? I think I'll have a handful from my suggestions list working that I can submit soon if needed.

Alien Carnage wouldn't work properly for me but if you can provide it, working, we will put it in.

So, I apparently was able to get this game working decently well in the core before by using the following settings:

  • Activate "turbo" mode in the game itself
  • Change core CPU clock to 56MHz
  • Set L2 Cache to Off

That said, it wasn't 100% perfect, but it was really playable that way.

Can core settings (CPU clock, L2 Cache, etc) this be expressed in mgl files?

If I'm looking through the VHDs correctly, I believe that these settings can be set inside of the RUNGAME.BAT files that are launched when you start a game.

The game I would love to see the most is One Must Fall 2097. But I would also love to see Duke Nukem 1 and 2 (the original 2D versions).

Big Red Racing would be a fun one to add. 3D racing game for DOS that came out in 1995.

"Sleuth" is a childhood favorite that I'd love to see added! Simple and addictive Clue-like, text-based game.

Roller Coaster Tycoon

PS: I created a GitHub account to leave this as my first comment, the world deserves these games ;)

Carmageddon is a slide show unfortunately. System Shock works pretty smoothly. Theme Park seems to be perma-broken under ao486

jeffkrull commented 3 months ago

I made myself a VHD of One Must Fall 2097. I copied a VHD from another game, deleted all the game files, and installed the game from the version 2.1 CD image. It uses all default settings, and all I had to do after installing the game was delete DOS4GW.EXE from the game install directory, and replace it with a renamed DOS32A.EXE. Just in case this is useful to the maintainers.

Would reccomend updating Prince of Persia in the collection from the current v1.1 to v1.4 which has support for MT-32 as well as the final implemented bugfixes that were officially released. Press Ctrl-V during gameplay to find out which version you have.
