I’m trying to get an old Windows game running for a friend.
It seems to be a 16bit macromedia app and I kind of got it running in a Win 98 VM using Virtualbox. DOSBox seems to get confused by it being a Windows app.
Thing is, the friend is very much not good with tech and I want to set everything up for him to “just work”. Installing VBox might be a bit too much.
Apparently, you can install Windows inside DOSBox, but is that really stable and usable for layman? Are there any other approaches?
Gog.com is always worth a look. I found a functional copy of Sid Meiers Alpha Centauri there.
Gog is well indexed by Google. If it’s on Gog, a simple web search would have listed that result. “I barely managed to find it at all” means that it was more work than just googling it and clicking on the Gog result.
