Winevdm supports 3 hypervisors, HAXM (for Intel CPUs), GVM (for AMD CPUs) and Hyper-V (both CPUs but you want to have Win10+). It's without a hypervisor, so the videos are going to be slow. You can run the game just by executing start.bat. Certainly better than another zmachine intepreter. Would definitely benefit from a ScummVM treatment. There were some graphical glitches, but then I tried the game in a Win95 emulator and there were also graphical glitches. IEUnharden - without it, the game freezes whenever an explorer.exe window is called (like during saving/loading)įorceDXSetupSuccess - without it audio doesn't play after a load.Īll of that put together it ran OKayish I thought. Just for the sake of reproducibility, the shims I used were:ĭisableFilterKeys+DisableThemes - to get the basic Win95 window themeĮmulateCDFS - there are some graphical/audio problems without it And then, the game is filled with Win95 behavior, you have to use Microsoft's Application compatibility toolkit to get that on a modern OS. Sound was grainy, indirectsound fixes that.

Manually copy riana.exe from the CD to the install dir. exe, but XP and newer OS care and they complain.

Win95 doesn't care about that and just runs with the damaged. A win32 game, but the installer damages the executable during the installation. Riana Rouge - This one had more problems to say the least. Also just to be sure, have some directshow codecs installed like LAVfilters, so that videos are playing. That said, music is played only in the main menu? Not ingame. I suppose back in the day with only one physical drive and no virtual drive, this was not noticeable.

You can change drive letters in Windows drive management. So there's no music! To have music, the image has to be mounted alphabetically as the first CDdrive of all CDdrives. Most likely it's going be to your physical CDdrive, which presuming you got the game from pirate bay is empty. But the audio track is played from the first CDdrive in your system, even if that CDdrive is not the ShadowCompany CD. The game looks for the CDdrive that has the CD from which the videos are played afterwards (logical). The logic behind it is a bit dumbfounding though. The CD is a mixed mode data+audio, I had it mounted with wincdemu which does not do mixed mode, after mounting it with imgdrive music worked.

Install the game, patch to 1.31, extract dgvoodoo2 to make it run and. Copy files from the CD on HDD and replace setup.exe with the installshield launcher ( ). After applying the 640x480 and WinXPSP2 compatibility flags on the exe, the game ran perfectly fine on Win10. Overwrite the original executable with that. Other than that, there were no problems with the game, it ran 100% on Win10.īlue Heat - Win16 installer, game is both Win16 and Win32. For the resolution, you can change your desktop resolution manually, to get it fullscreen, or play it at a higher res and have it in a 800圆00 box. For the 16bit colors just enable them in the compatibility tab. Also it uses quicktime 2.1.2, but it already comes with it on CD3, you can just install it (with administrator privileges). Still, they'd need to be tested, maybe there are some problems down the road? I only played them a bit.ĭays of Oblivion - This is a Win32 game, but it has a 16 bit installer. I had to enable a hypervisor in winevdm to get smooth videos though. It ran fine on my DOSbox.ĭaedalus Encounter DVD - Win32 game, a pain in the butt to get it running, fortunately there's the CD versionĭaedalus CD & Johnny Mnemonic - Win16 games, I tried them in winevdm and they ran very nicely. Unless there's some bad interplay with DOSbox, I don't see the need for Win95. VoyeurII - This is a DOS game, it even has a DOS installer (install.bat).

With that said I was playing with winevdm lately so I wanted to look at Johnny Mnemonic and the rest.Ī lot of them have Win16 installers, use winevdm to install them.

All unhappy gamers are unhappy in their own unique ways and all happy gamers are happy in exactly the same way - in that they play Win95 games without emulating Win95. There are plenty of ways of emulating Win95, but they're all last desperate hail mary attempts at running the game.
