When I was a kid, i was pretty good at DOS. I even resisted switching to win 95, but when 98 came out i finally gave in. But not using dos for so long, i forgot a lot about how to use it. This was a fun little refresher :)

@ToyKeeper Ай бұрын

Win95 was a great way to get more than one DOS at a time, with a hotkey to switch between them. Unfortunately, it was also a great way to get a badly corrupted hard drive. That still stings 28 years later. But on the bright side, it motivated me to completely abandon proprietary software and switch to Linux.

Many thanks for sharing your work, highly appreciated. I was in college when dos was high on the market (I would say 1990 to 1994) after Atari, Amiga and before win31 so I missed few jewels but it's time to re-discover in good condition with your help. Greetings from France.

@ToyKeeper Ай бұрын

DOS was great fun. Basically a completely open system where programs had direct hardware access and could do absolutely anything. I really enjoyed learning how to push it to its limits... starting with "*0xA0000 = 1;" to put a pixel into the VGA framebuffer, and working up from there. I loved getting all the latest demoscene releases, reverse-engineering them, and writing my own versions... often integrating the effects into my paint program. Like that Mars demo you showed, for example... I had a feature where you could walk around on the picture you painted, in height-mapped 3D. It's too bad I lost almost all my source code. All I have left now is a .exe release of the last version I built in Turbo C, before I started a 32-bit rewrite in djgpp.

DOSBox is also natively available for Linux, so you don't need to run it through WINE to use it. I was actually running DOSBox in Linux before I knew of a Windows version. That was a long time ago now. I think that I first ran the Windows version in Windows 2000, but after Windows XP had come out. Regardless, if you are not experienced with Linux, you may find it easier just to use the Windows version through WINE, but if you want to run it natively in Linux, you can.

@TechDweeb Ай бұрын

For sure. I was just showing that so people know they can use this build without having to set it up themselves. Definitely running it natively is preferred 👍

The games run directly from zipfile, key mapping I left it default because with some of my favorites that aren't running as ports, runs pretty much out of the box for games like Dangerous Dave and even Jetpack runs perfectly (but for Jetpack, from the game menu I use L3 to bring the on screen keyboad to pres S and after that everything is perfect), dosbox on ArkOS also does save states. :D
