GP2 in DOSBox 0.70

Grand Prix 2, running in DOSBox version 0.70. The game's really playable in this emulator, and as you can see, it's possible to record movies :)
The movie itself is a bit boring, just a lap around Monza...

Is it possible to run GP2 on Windows Seven, using DosBox?

[samortails]

@emennocchi I haven't tried it yet but I expect it would work.

So will this work on windows xp? I've it runs through dos box but will still work on win xp? help..... I Love this game it's true classic.

[samortails]

@Dubpaul40 it will not run on XP without DOSBox. If you want to run without DOSBox you'll need Windows 95/98/ME

[samortails]

@Dubpaul40 oh wait... it seems it's also possible using XP's command line and a tool called VDMSound.... read the older comments, somebody posted about it.

@BigFigueiredo18

it's a custom car skin. You could modify a lot in the game with tools made by the game's community.

you don't need an emulator to run GP2 on Windows 98. I was used to paly it years ago on Win98 and it worked fine. Also 98 includes DOS.

Nice lap. Notice, by 1994, the 2nd Lesmo corner was still very fast (0:45), compared to nowadays version.

can a usb controller with joysticks work through DOSBOX? this game is great, but its useless if i have to use the keyboard.

[ZeroBullet86]

@emennocchi yes no problem at all. I have it running nicely on my Windows 7 laptop.

[emennocchi]

@samortails Yes, it does works! Although, I can't play in full screen... is that normal?
