This is only a Demo Run of Sim Copter. A full game play video will be coming next year (2019).

This game was really hard to get running. I had to do a lot of research and experimenting just to get it to work. However it was worth it cause I finally found the right combination to get it working properly.

Sim Copter is a game from the mid 90's and was made for older computers. So what I did was get a virtual machine of Windows Xp and install game on there. I also made a iso cd as well since the game requires the disc for some reason even if the files are installed. However now we get to the interesting part. The game was running high CPU levels in the background and would crash randomly. So to fix this problem I had to install a program called CPU Killer on the virtual machine. That fixed the problem but how did I record it? Well I can tell you it wasn't on the virtual machine. It was on my main computer and I used the X-split screen recorder to film the game play. If I would ran this game (which I did in the past) on the main computer it would of not worked so well. This is because CPU Killer would of slowed everything down and I mean everything. So if you are going to record this game I recommend using a virtual machine of windows xp and use your main computer to record it.
