Dude, that's freakin awesome.

Thanks for the heads-up. I always hated how convoluted DOSBox is, I can use it.
It's just a pain in the ass. This though, looks badass. Guess I'll have to try it when it's launched.

An excellent MS-DOS emulator but the fork called Pure Unleashed is much more complete than the other forks of this DOSBox emulator and it also has Win95 and Win98 support but on an experimental basis for the time being.

You're welcome Captain. I too will try it myself when it comes out.

What's the difference between this, Staging, and X?

drag and looks like. less hassle with CD based stuff ect.

 

[secreto7]

Perhaps some day I'll try it to play some Psycho Pinball

This looks tailor made for the Steam Deck, ROG Ally etc. Could be really cool.

So would this actually play Windows 95 and Windows 98 games without setting up Windows 95 and Windows 98?

 

[Sfjeov]

I always like that you could drag and drop files, especially with multiple CD.

I use Staging for the great adaptive video filter. That said, overall usability isn't any better than the usual. I have my own little archaic system to get things to roll. I'm always up for trying different (hopefully better) iterations, though.

Yeah honestly, I don't fool with DOSBox period or haven't in ages.

I have an XP machine just for running DOS-based games I like, so swings and roundabouts I suppose. But I will try this with a Linux system I have, if it has a Linux installer I mean. If not, I'll try it on a Windows 10 machine I have just to see how simple and friendly it is.

Am curious after all

I used to dislike playing Doom via DosBox because of how it felt.

Finally we're seeing an user friendly UI for it and I'm rejoiced.

Honestly this looks so great. I'm just hoping it'll support actual physical CD-ROM and Floppy Drives.

 

[Badseed Badseed]

YES!!!! Bring back Windows 95. The best operating system ever!!!

 

[Ikagura Ikagura]

Does that mean that virtually every Winn9x games can be played windowed without tinkering?

 

[petran79]

for win95 3d games, 86box is the better choice, though it still has issues with Voodoo synchro on some games.
V6 is expected to be a big rewrite of code
