I have never heard of this project and it might suck up a lot of my time. How does this differ from making a virtual machine from old versions of Windows?
I believe I first played RollerCoaster Tycoon on Windows 98. I also got SimCity 2000 from GoG but it’s the DOS version and I feel like the Windows version looked better.
For things that actually used the 3D card, I used to enjoy Midtown Madness 2, Motocross Madness, and Need for Speed III, but that all might’ve been in my Windows 2000 days.
I believe the difference is that it actually emulates the hardware instead of just making the stuff you have look and act like it is compatible, but I’m far from an expert.
I really enjoyed Midtown Madness 1 when it came out, if 2 doesn’t work I think 1 would. Thanks for the rec!

That out of bounds effect on Motocross Madness makes me smile even today

I only had the demo of it and I just kept going up the hill and building up as much speed as possible, only to then let myself go OOB - for hours and hours.
Ah… Lovely memories of a brainless kid just messing around with his computer…
