okay hello I'm Martin it will bedifferent living in Ecuador I run thosetwo world website and in were a what Iwanted to do is try to build an artalways way to gaming machine and trysome retro gaming and see what and tellus about the experience and what ismissing where is working and go and justhave some fun playing with it first Iwant to dedicate this presentation todaily research that that's a whale ifyou want to go a is the one that what isthe one that we do - all its collectionand we have it right hereyesterday what we were opening the boxwe really knew that this place thiscollection made me along a lot for Davidand he had put a lot of love in carry onhis to action and cover right here sothis is this is - David I could workwith David and like for more the pastyearDavid play was when our project ofscanning boys - magazines I was helpinghim and well like it was like I wasfound that nearby on the last twoweeks and then I found out he is notonly passed away and well click out hehad helped a lot it was to communityit had scan a lot of magazines a lot ofdocumentation is available on theinternet Thanksgivingokay let's goso what's the the objectives of this ofthis experiment the technique was to tryour toys see how good or bad it is as aretro gaming operating system try somegames on it also try to document some ofthe tools that are required if you'regoing to use it as a gaming machine alsolist the good and the bad stuff what isworking fine words not working yet andalso having some fun playing games andspending your time on it okay firstfirst I needed to create my gamingsystem my gaming computer so I chose acomputer that I found on the office thatwas a slingback l 4:20 and it has like 4GBS of gigabytes of RAM one terabytehard diskI'm installed on it arc OS 503 okimportant things are that the i/o deviceis working sometimes well there aremachines are not compatible with me youknowthis one works this is thethe device is an intercooler poem thisis how pci-x Excel recognized the deviceand that is the harbor ID and Union wasworking with it provides some and stablesong so it was good enough then they'dbe for the video used panorama driver hehad an Intel HD graphics and it alsoworked decent enough for what you gavemeok so after a while I got my system setup it works in good Wi-Fi it's notworking ok but but I don't need wifeethicist this is there are not not notmuch of well there are Network phasesretro games but it was not the goal totry but Ethernet is workingthen importantly the cables working fineokay so I as an extra tool that Irequire besides some libraries I use Isaw access which is a tool so you canmount ISO files they see the wrongimages so since they are on the interneta lot of ISO images you can download youcan try it's also good to do not listtoo so you can monkey that's the driveand the games and make the game thinkit's a silly one first I'm going tostart with the native gaming nativegaming will be like the games there arecompile to run on us to become stationalright OS okay so for that kind ofgames you need like libraries as the oldlibraries which is a graphics librarywhich many of the open source games useto work then there are the some otherlibraries also graphic library togetherthe GI libraries a few games required isnot very critical and then for alsoother open source games you need somesome other library like UT DCC onlyokay so you you go just to okay you goto work p.m. John and you just installedthe pack of libraries I have some issueswith the SDL libraries there are onthere are monte at loves RPM so why youstill the latest version on hubs installthose as the old libraries and I ignorethe one of p.m. this is like they needto be updated and and see what andorganize something else lives the SDLlibrary okay so what I did first I startthis project that is called wine hugepile of markings or poem need to call itsome work somehow so I try toconsolidate all all the native games injust one file one point four gigabytefile and I just organize all the opensource share work and pre word gamesthat are available for us to and Iuploaded into the intern archive that Idon't needhello a lot of files there doesn't careabout space and I just consolidate allgames organizing you know I don't knowif you can see it I have like this ishow the huge ship files look when youunzip it you have the alphabetic foldersfrom A to C number a to C and you haveyou have each folder for a folder foreach PI for each game so I try toorganize them not all games run and somegames are what I'm going to play laterbut I try to put all the games possiblethere there are like okay a lot of gamesand well you can also download it justone gigabyte so you can see it try itand try the games and then 80 games thatwe all know okay our board games thereare some gameswe can try it or how was the experiencewell the native gaming experience is thesame as the original always to or ourCowboys there is there is a few thingsmissing berries it's not critical itmaintains the original experience boystooof course I have no USB joystick supportthere is no available is USB joystickit's USB choice take a special USB classjust like just hid distempers enteredhuman interface to us hidyes standard in most colossal SUV topthe driver we need to like the libraryand the game using the library right sowe're got to be wrapped some game portlibrary to map out the function yeahthis joystick a special device or is itJustin there was another warp stalk mmto the camera brutal was somebody wasworking on the USB joystick support andtheir laptop was stolen that had thecodeokay so well there is no USB joysticksupport there is joystick support wherethey all adjusted to part with the gamealreadymaybe us that maybe the only issues withthe negative spaceother issues are remembering how tosupport is required uni out has to workand the other issue that fun is MIDIsupport there are some games that havesome main support for the background itwas a MIDI file the background and allthe songsand immediate support is not availableit may work with like humidity and someother media tools you can run MIDI filesyou can hear MIDI files but if you don'thave an integrating to MMOs - it is notthe application will not run it or thegame will not run it because the gamewill try to run me through MMOs - okso even there is an application abode Idiscussed out there on the forum how tomake the meeting to work on a menos -but the software was too old and it wasnot working and some kind of bridge hadto be made between mmo's to onecommunity to make it work so that's alsoa limitation but there are not a lot ofgames that use maybe make beats so it'snot it's not likeand some other issues that some gamesdepend on it snappedsome of the open source games that wereported depend on snap and since I'musing panorama there are not running Iwill have to switch to the other driverbut it would be great if some a fewgames can be recompiled so they can notmagic so you snapped technology andafter the USB port okay next the OSgaming so we have like two ways to go totry you the OS games the first one isgoing through thethe main people standard way of thebuilding of the OS sessions that alwaysto provide so to be honest from back inthe days whenfrom what I remember when I was youngerhe is a lot of it is a lot of easier nowto run games on our ho s than on theoriginal laws to work because our Co isincluded the contact be contacted thatmake it really easy to have like apre-configured the OS session back onthe work days work on a 4.0 if you haveto tweak every do especially to run on aspecific game there was the helperapplication to say oh you're going torun mortal kombat you have to do allthis stuff you're going to run do youhave to do all the stuff so now it'svery very standard and I try some gameslike Mortal Kombat do one too and someother do get directly and they run veryvery easilythey run onto the screen okay there area lot of the POS games I loveis so having chance to test it all butfor what it is it will find it wellif he was playable was on experiencealso I'm going to explain the problemson the next slide but also you can getmore information or you can downloadmore deal with games from the InternetArchive on that addressed internet typetries to preserve every videoscheme that was available and you candownload it you can even play it on thebrowser battle oh not very good on fivefoot across okay the next slide I wantto talk about some of the setup somemachines in so much things there aresome problem it is playing the OSsessions it's worth to try thisdishearten always touch it may work itmay not workyeah yeah it's good to give it a try andsee what happensso let's get that in mind there is alsoan art and web page with some knownissues about the other session which isalso good to read about ok and we havethe other alternative oh sorry I thinkthere's one slightly thingwell to talk aboutbut some of the issues on date like thebirth of the OS any is that there is nosound yeah just let me check you thislight either this is high it was everymember making thisokay no he's coming up right after itthe other way to run the others games iswith the OS box we have a version of theOS box and it's working songs also worksbecause he used the SDL library toconnect to the song driver see and itworks on window and and full screen modeokay so there's this is a different wayto long the OS box and it's working it'svery stable- and you can play games here what ismissing of now in general about the OSgaming the native or the the beer 12v OSit has some issue with I so we don'thave song support there is this drivercalled D Tiago there is that is like theright of it that allows to give the OSsessions of you support to young so yesthere are things in there are things onthe OS that provides some every butthere is no like a song blaster emulatoronus so right now the games are just meetso for so as a retro machine for the OSthis is a mouse hub there is missingright now but you can use the oil spotsand okay and some other games cannot runin the boot of the OS window it mode butyou can also if you really moved whenyou play a game to one in a full screenif it's a very interesting game the OSgames you want anyway you can go yogidiffered from the OS mode running toscream or you can use the OS box okay sohow do is maybe like the biggest issuethe always from gaming which it songswhich which DT area songs promisinglet's hold it cannibal and I also wentto deaths on Windows 3.1 game 16-bitwindows sixteen windows gamesso what person games like sky jump Idon't know if you can see it was therethat's called a theory but thought thatwas called ski free sorry I thought thatwas called ski free maybe it's called adifferent name in another country couldbe that's gonna make me look at a voicehe was called some different differentcountries inspire to start a quick and Ialso see on Windowsit works fine worked without anyproblems on the beautiful to therecessions and there are souls and moregames but yeah sound works also with egout here it works I think because Idon't I don't really know the detailsbut it works like different from the dois be or station in life it's like itgives yeah yeah it gives it's a driverfor Windows 3.1 so it's always yeah itworks it is not that you required someclassroom arrangement here it's like inthe OS like every game talks directly tothis son blaster and and Windows is justa driver that you give me so it worksfine and you can experience the windowspeople won games its ownthere are some more dirt requirements oryour DTI area probably no PTA wouldwrite of how well it's required thatthat's the driver that gives you someand windows sessions and and of courseFord et al do you have to do songs weknow as session tweaking which is veryimportant to read the readme filesbecause if you just tell the driver andRonnie it will not work you need totweak the session now the properties ofthe voice so it's important to reallyyeah because it took me some time untilsay okay let's read the readme file okayso don't forget about that then thereare some other games on Windows thatrequire some extra things I have someissues with QuickTime 2.1 22 very goodbig time but there are games thatrequire that that libraries to runthere is also video for windows 1.1 IIand sometimes that there are some gamesthat require me get my earbudsthey're not very common but sometimesyou require that things whatever you saynow we move on to the next levels Iwanted to try Windows in 32 beats gameswith OD I'm saying right holding curtainokay so it's so to try this what I didis just all open libraries on themachine and depending on luck see howsome games react to try to run it okayand the issue here is that games need tobe tested individually you need to grabone game and see if you can block or notand see how it works and this is an areawhere I require more help to check moregames there are a lot of games ofWindows to beat and to be honest issomething that not not all operatingsystem offers Windows today64 bits do not run games it'srelax support for TVs and Linux with thewine project and run the game is betterbut it's something that is not verycommon usually this kind of anymore theyrunning on virtual machines okaythis very requires more testing some ofthe issues many games would not run andsome other games will partially worksbut may looks prints or may not havesome for example I try this is yourecognize this placeit looks very yellow and it's in City3000 yeah it runs it is playable Iremember it has some song you can putthings but sometimes the menu didn'tdisplay right and you've got a loop tobe like remembering where the icon wasand it looks very strange but it waspillow pillow sing CD mm this is hugeway where you require more more time tocheck more games to try to save somebodyof the older windows library you cancopy there and see if it worksit depends much on luck and yourshe doesn't importance is also importantto try to document everything you aredoing everything every library isworking on the residents are not workingwell the person argument can we have funwith games merit oh yesthey spend a lot of time playing butwell they're so so that we need to dosome working some work to test the gamesto see if it works to tweak it so yes Idid have fun trying some gamesno no additional date or I tried to talka lot of games I don't know if there areany questionsthe D key audio yes but I think this isbeen aroundyeah detail of your work from there fromwhat I remember it was that's when Ifirst heard about a to accommodationremember being that early it could bebut I don't know how is not up the rightI don't know if you want to saysomething peacefully about I'm just adriverokay so DT DT a digital transfer agentand it's now was written by John Gao whowas one of the growing net labs guys andI guess John started it back in the 90swell actually the started happenswritten by IBM that was uneven GAO camealong had some insights as to where IBMwas going wrong and took it from thereimproved on what they had but he didn'tlike it so he then proceeded to reallyreally write the whole thing from gramsand it has the potential for beingreallyat handlesif you have some other sort of media orwhatever you could handle it bad and soon but I guess he lost interest orwhatever but the result that is itsversion we never quite finishedI have seven copies so that none of themcompile so now we have it to a pointwhere it compiles it works we can do astupid little test program that dalishgonna make sound in in dosti well that'sbecause it's talking directly to DVD asopposed to every game is expecting totalk to you some sound last of it andthat is our big problem in Windows 3.1he sort of cobbled something together inthis last version that took like partsof the IBM stock and parts of the zoneand so that part works but what we'relooking for is somebody who's capableMastergood luck I only heard him you knowwe've heard I've heard that does thathis video - it's it's essentially aclient so you can have any clientwritten to talk to the DT audio serverwhich then has the information off tothe ultimate sound driver which isgenerally really hard for us but theidea is that it should be able to talkto anyso we have the windows the windows parkfor dogs moving south vocal soundblaster driver avatarbut the poor compactable don't readthose people in weather that's thanks torich because he really took the code wegot the code in Spanish Bravo rough likeJohn's own admission was rather roughfrom what could pull together and thebinary that we had to match the sourcesthat we had it was like half buildablealmost so you have rich did quite a bitgetting it to the point where is downthe other the other trick with it iswith the Installer but you mentionedthat you can't just unzip it and runI've got to modify the the win 3-1 setupand all that needs to go into theInstaller find they put it together sothat an end user can just install thepackagebut just install a warp in and have ithave it work so we've got to modify theconfiguration files[Music]it won't work because that will load andworking and to the load in educating thewhole package and check it out of themFacebook gamesspend some time[Music]my breath and let it come walk with mewhich is great and then
