95 and NT4 support? #5

Open vogonsorg opened 1 year ago

I noticed that Delphidoom v2.0.7.735 runs on Windows 98 and ME through testing today but not 95. Would there be any interesting in making 95 compatible? If so I can provide more detailed error messages. It does look like the GL ver works in NT4 but not the directdraw version.

The officially supporting platforms are Windows XP and higher. This is due to multithreading manipulation and in particulary the usage of InterlockedIncrement and InterlockedDecrement. Running in lower OS versions is not supported or may not work as intented. Also DelphiDoom needs at least DirectX 7 to be installed.

Okay thanks. This can be closed. I'll look into it. DelphiDoom also works great on 2000 BTW. Thanks for your work on this port!
