why you play on dosbox a windows game?

[samortails]

@DBV30 it's a dos game. Are you thinking of another game that looks similar?

[DBV30]

@samortails i have the original version of that game and it's fully for windows executable.

[samortails]

@DBV30 It did run in Windows 9x's DOS mode (the one running inside Windows, without having to quit out of the os), desktop icon and all, but it's a DOS game for sure, unless there's another version of the game I don't know about. There were a few games at that time that had both a Windows and DOS version, such as the Need for Speed, and IndyCar Racing 2... But the version of Screamer I have is certainly DOS only... the same goes for both sequels (Screamer 2 and Screamer Rally)

Oh my god! Someone PLEASE port this baby to the Dreamcast asap!

Many older 3d PC games work on DC with proper porting, so its possible!

[samortails]

that would be great, let's hope developer MileStone (aka Grafity) releases the sourcecode some day...

Now this has what newer games are missing. STYLE. Cars that pop up on two wheels just cornering, a relaxed style of music, colorful scenery. Sure CoD 4 is fun and GT5 but they dont have the style that made these games timeless (and this is comming from a 14 year old).

OMG this game was mint back in the day I loved it, spent hours playing!

hi did you do anything special when installing the game on dosbox? because the game refuses to run on 0.74...

first I copied the setup files from the cd on my harddrive, launched setup.exe with dosbox and it installed. then it told me how to launch the game after that it seemed like he wanted to load a "first run" setup but I just get a black screen.

[databasecenter]

can anybody get a torrent or location from where i can download this game?

[HerecomestheCalavera]

I never seen this back in the day. Looks awesome though I'll have to give it a try.
