There's a port of Debian to the Wii, don't remember the name, but it should be easy to find. It's nothing special really beyond the fact that the drivers in Linux and X.Org were ported to the Wii's hardware, you can install any Debian/powerpc package 😀

What is your cycles settings? What hardware and operating system do you have? Wolf3D is a light game by today's standards, even on emulators; it plays full speed with DOSBox on the Wii (729MHz single-core PowerPC) at 3000 cycles (default cycles).

A bit of generalization there; there is also a 16-bit protected mode introduced with the 80286, I believe Wolfenstein 3-D is one game that uses it.

The one wd linked to is obviously a compilation of two games, it says nothing at all about the release date of Dark Seed II. That would be like using the Interplay 10th Year compilation to claim that Wasteland was (originally) released in 1993.

According to MobyGames, it was released in 1995 and has both DOS and Windows 3.1 versions.

Obviously it requires Microsoft Windows. If it's a Windows 3.1 game, and you have a copy of Windows 3.1, you can see this guide for help, or try to run it on your normal version of Windows (the NTs, including 2000, XP, Vista (64-bit version have no support at all), have limited support for such …

Most DOS games from the 1990s were in 32-bit protected mode, and few games from the late 1980s as well (though 286s were still very common, so developers tended to keep it safe with 16-bit programs). DOSBox emulates the 80486 because there are many games that use the features of that processor 😀

doom2.exe -file redemp~1.wad Considering that it has a filename that's not conforming to 8.3, it's most likely not intended for vanilla Doom. Check the text file to see if it requires a sorce port (such as PrBoom, Eternity, ZDoom, Doomsday, or various others)

He mounted the CD (rather an image of it, but a game shouldn't know the difference), as the screenshots show.

It shouldn't be different than any other game or application.

What are you trying to do exactly?

ooh, how did I miss that? I'm sorry, that works fine, I just missed it somehow. Thanks 😀

There's a few games whose mouse sensitivity just doesn't go up high enough for me... sometimes, modifying the configuration file to set a value higher than what the game setup menu allows works, but not always. I'm interested if there's any sort of DOSBox setting (didn't see any in the rc file or …

I believe you need to edit "~/Library/Preferences/DOSBox Preferences" on Mac OS X, although I'm not sure of that name since I don't use OS X myself. the [autoexec] section is usually at the bottom of the file.

With most install programs I've seen, you can copy all the contents of the disks into a single directory and it'll work from there. (BTW, about your query about working floppy drives vs. illegal activities: Most of my games are on CD-ROM, and none of the floppy ones even have multiple disks 😉)
