Windows98 With 3D Hardware Acceleration On DOSBox-X Running 3DMark99, Hexen, Heretic, Doom
10#dosbox #Windows98 #3dgraphics
MS-DOS gaming and early 3D Windows9x gaming actually works quite well on DOSBox-X when using the Voodoo 3Dfx support it offers.
Installing Windows98SE was very easy. And the Windows98 environment provides a decent MS-DOS gaming environment with Solid SB16 (or GUS if you want) and it can even provide GM Roland sound in MS-DOS and DOS games like Hexen, Heretic, Doom. Of course OPL2/3 FM synth is also possible for the more generic audio experience most users had with DOS-Games.
