Zombeaver Posted August 25, 2018 Author Share Posted August 25, 2018 Depends on the game. If it's DOS, I'm setting it up in DOSBox, if it's Amiga it's FS-UAE, if it's 3.1 I'm using DOSBox Daum with a 3.1 environment in it, if it's 95 I'm using PCem, if it's an older Windows (but post 16-bit Windows) game, I'll use either some sort of video wrapper like DDrawCompat or DgVoodoo 2 or some sort of patch to get it working, depending on what it needs. Once it's setup and working, I create artwork for it, then create an installer using either InstallForge or Inno Script Studio (InstallForge is what I use most, but Inno is sometimes necessary for more complex jobs - it's not nearly as user friendly though), write a review for the game, upload it to Archive, then add a page for it on my website. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klopjero Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 I like that It's neat.. and I'm glad I asked because I didn't know PCem. that might come in handy at work maybe... I need to virtualize old workplace applications for servicing trams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klopjero Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 eya, just completed Gunman chronicles, thanks for the package, it runs magnificently. I updated the GamesDB entry, assigning regions to the various boxes and adding a clear logo, 3d and 2d boxes for both the US and EU when they were missing. I thought I'd drop by and mention this and say thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klopjero Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 @Zombeaver a different question. arcade like gaming rigs sport some exotic hardware. Dolphin bar for instance. and some games act weird because some of these HIDs mess with the controlls. For instance, Bioshock Infinity and Rise of the Triad spin upwards. other games like prototype 2 don't start at all. Do you have a script that can disable some hardware before starting a game ?

Zombeaver Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 I don't know of one off-hand but somebody's probably come up with something for that. You might want to try asking on the AHK forums. If you come up with something, you could add it as an additional app to start "before main application" and another one to turn it off afterwards.

Zombeaver Posted October 24, 2018 Author Share Posted October 24, 2018 Last Half of Darkness: Original Trilogy has now been added to Zomb's Lair. As far as I can tell, there are no official covers for these games, so I just made the above one. I made separate ones for each part in the series so I'd have something to use in Launchbox for each of them as well: 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
