Forget that 'might', as soon you enter the pentium hardware Corncob3D goes berserk. If I remember swell it even went bersek on a 486 DX4 ..... just to say. And slowdowners won't help there, as it needs full CPU capacity for the enemies AI and enemies actions, use slowdowners and your gaming experience goes completely down the drain.

BTW: the ideal dosgame machine almost exist: dosbox.
As simple as that.
You can run the oldest and latest dosgames on it.
Don't forget what some devs do in the CVS versions with dosbox......

It's extremely rare I fire up my P1 for dosgames, it's almost only in use as ftp server lately...... says enough.

[Edit]
Damnit, I really had sworn not to enter such topics anymore.
Djees man, I hate you all.
:mad:
