I might have found yet another project I wanna work on.
IMHO it is doable and would involve porting a well known game to #MSDOS with #OpenGL #3dfx #Voodoo support.
I have no idea where I can find the time and energy to do it, but it just went on my list...

Magazine

The magazine dedicated to vintage/retro OSes! This is the ideal spot to get lost in nostalgia and discover the software that helped pave the path for modern computing, whether you're thinking back to the days of MS-DOS, Windows 3.1, Mac OS 9, or even earlier systems like Bell Labs UNIX or AmigaOS.

Join our community to explore emulation strategies, learn how to run classic operating systems on modern hardware, and share your own experiences with these platforms. Emulation is allowed.

Feel free to post screenshots, stories, and even ask for assistance with troubleshooting or finding rare software.

FYI: Although we are strictly retro OSes, Linux distros are allowed if they aren't the common ones.

This place is in no way affiliated with subreddits of the same purpose
