JGalaxy (2008-12-21)

WOW! This thing is just getting more and more awsome! Thanks a million brukerdose!
And thanks for putting my requests in there! Going to be a very jolly x-mas :D

Sylan_Turbo (2008-12-21)

Wow, another great torrent. Many thanks again.
Any chance of adding "X-Com Enemy Unknown" to the next volume (if you decide to produce one)?

Arc-Tig (2008-12-21)

Absolutely loving these torrents, Is there any chance you could make one with Syndicate Wars and Hi-Octane in it? (Both classic Bullfrog games)

NiffySuede (2008-12-21)

I love you!! :)

mtw (2008-12-21)

What version of Carmageddon is it?
I have Carmegaddon Max Pack (inkl. Splat Pack)
but is something like 800MB.
Maybe yours is the same with movies etc. ripped?

Ducksey (2008-12-21)

Thanks again

stevepeck (2008-12-21)

Do Brukerdose a favour...download, but seed.

Rameo (2008-12-21)

Another awesome collection, cheers! Please please please do Sim Tower next!

CodeNameBender (2008-12-21)

I've wrapped Windows 3.11 for OS X and upped it on Demonoid. Now I've got a HUGE update with much fixes for it (not released yet).
How can I post that torrent here?
Btw, Rameo, SimTower works with it :D

funky-eddie (2008-12-21)

Thanks so much mate. You are my hero :)

seuppnu (2008-12-21)

I can't get it working. I have an old Mac 10.4.11 (no intel). I have dosbox and the games provided. I type what I think is the right code. I enter the c-drive etc. I see my games in the game folder, but they are not exe-files but app-files. I can't open them through dosbox, somehow. What do I do wrong? The instruction on youtube is nice but not working for me. You guys are so happy with what you've got. Tell me the secret of the Holy Grail, anyone. Thanks

RetXen (2008-12-22)

Thanks again mate!
How about BATTLE CHESS 1 & 2 for the next volume?

lars4711 (2008-12-22)

Looks brilliant - just what I have wanted for years, but how do I get "the special version of Dosbox"?
Thanks so much - lars

askerz429 (2008-12-22)

Thank you very much. cheers!

brukerdose (2008-12-22)

To people having trouble running these games:
The app file is an executable containing both a version of Dosbox and a classic game. You start the app files by double-clicking them. It's that simple :)
Oh, and please seed for a while when you are done downloading. The ratio is poor at the moment and is only getting worse.

Gunhaver (2008-12-22)

Thank you for including Sim Ant love that game. I hope you do Sim Tower or YootTower next!

maskwa (2008-12-22)

Myst 1

nexia (2008-12-22)

any idea how to do the same with old OS9 games instead of PC games?!... i have a ton here which would be really appreciated by the community.
i seeded X3 but there is nobody on my side of things...

PointNClicker (2008-12-22)

I love these collections.
Just wanted to tell you that I'm ever so grateful before I start suggesting things. These are only suggestions from the top of my head.
Original X-COM
Jagged Alliance
Discworld
Arena & Daggerfall
Civilization 2: Test of Time
Thunderscape

captain.brutus (2008-12-23)

absolutely brilliant!
jagged alliance or elite would be great!

axe93 (2008-12-23)

age of empires?

ao5t (2008-12-23)

KINGS QUEST
DOOM
DOOM II

ao5t (2008-12-23)

ALSO JILL OF THE JUNGLE, TREASURE COVE, AND FUNNELS & BUCKETS

Shunnabunich (2008-12-23)

Awesome stuff you're doing, thanks! I would ask for Terminator: Future Shock, but I've already tried it under DOSBox and couldn't get my poor old PowerBook G4 to run it, so there's not much point doing it for my sake. Cheers!

fak-it (2008-12-23)

Great stuff, brukerdose! I never imagined that there are so many DOS game fans that are using Macs :) Keep it up!

siralot1 (2008-12-23)

Great volumes. *claps*
i have some suggestions if you wish to make a V4.
more X-com and Dungeon Keeper, i miss that one so much, i love it. thanks ;)

Tinalm (2008-12-24)

Hey, great torrent! I have downloaded the other two, and downloading this one now. I will seed as long as my mac will be alive.
Any chance you could upload one of the Ugh?
And, there is one game that I cant remember the name of but I seriously was in love with this game. You were this kid that went to school, and you had to go to classes and you had "missions" while at school. The kid that you are steering has a slingshot, which is his weapon. And you could hit everything, like teachers and other students. And if you shot at this huge fat guy, the whole screen would "rumble" when he fell. Awesome game. I remember the colour yellow aswell, maybe that was the front screen? Anyone who remembers this game?

lars4711 (2008-12-24)

Thanks brukerdose
I took some of the games to a friend who has an Intel Mac with 10.5.++ - and the games work perfectly.
But I only have PowerPC Macs, one G4 Powerbook and one G5 iMac both with 10.4.11 and I cant get the games to open on them.
Is it so that your integrated special version of Dosbox only works on Intel macs or is it the system version 10.4 that causes the problem?
Merry Christmas to you
and thanks - lars

lars4711 (2008-12-24)

Hi zinjanthropus
I to can run the games on my friends Intel Mac OS 10.5, but not my own PowerPC based mac OS 10.4
thanks - lars

lars4711 (2008-12-24)

Hi zinjanthropus
Sorry I did not understand when first read, english isnt my native language (danish) now I understand 10.4.11 is OK - thanks.

mtw (2008-12-24)

Hmm.. det er da rart. Dosbox og Dosbox_wrapper er universal binary. Både PowerPC og Intel.
Har kun Intel selv, så jeg kan ikke sjekke. Både de torrents jeg har lagt opp, og fak-it og brukerdose sin spill fungerer fint på min macbook.

PointNClicker (2008-12-25)

At Tinalm
I bet your thinking of School Daze.

broncefisk (2008-12-25)

amazing torrent! love it!
although, would be even better if you could get Heroes of Might and Magic.. been looking for a mac version for a very long time!

emilybean (2008-12-25)

Does anyone know where I can find Creatures? It was a mac game I had in the 90's and after they made Creatures 2 and 3 they rereleased they first two as Creatures: The Albian Years but I can only manage to find it for PC... :(

Tinalm (2008-12-26)

@ PointNClicker
YES! Thats the one Im looking for! I love you!
Now, brukerdose, can you by any chance formate that game for me? I will pay you! almost:P

Sylan_Turbo (2008-12-27)

for all those wanting UFO Enemy Unknown.... it can be found here......

Many thanks to Fak_it

Xa2TheV (2008-12-28)

Thanks for this nostalgia!
But there are two games that I would reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllly like to see in a next version: Dangerous Dave and Secret Agent. These two made my life soo much better when I was a kid. Thanks!

Massikka (2008-12-28)

Works great on unibody macbook (10.5.6)

Sniper2654 (2008-12-28)

If it is at all possible, I would LOVE to see Sim Golf in the next version.
Also, if you could do the original FallOut (the current OS X torrents for it don't work on newer systems.

egofantastic (2008-12-28)

These torrents are so sweet.
ideas for the next torrent:
syndicate/syndicate wars whould be nice, and doungen keeper 1 and 2 allso. maybe monkey island 3 if possible.

MacLover3D (2008-12-29)

I cannot thank you enough!!
I've spent sooooo much time using these programs now, thanks thanks thanks!!
You're doing a wonderful thing here... so happy to see these.

zeiht (2008-12-29)

hey, real great stuff, although the original music isnt on sim ant or city, maybe the mac version was , this kinda ruins it for me. anyway, i really want sim tower if you would be so kind..

blarblar (2008-12-29)

Thanks for the collection! I'm playing Carmageddon all over again. Lots of fun!
How about the original Gold Box D&D RPG's from SSI? I spent months playing those as a kid. They're still good today as far as turn-based RPG's go:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_box
Syndicate would be great, too.
Finally, all of the MechWarrior games are great. Mercenaries is probably the best:

PointNClicker (2008-12-29)

No problem Tinalm.
As for the Gold Box D&D RPG's, hell yeah!

Eokki (2008-12-29)

Heroes of might and magic would be great game :).

brohken (2008-12-30)

Thank you brukerdose. This form of packaging the DOS games is very convenient, as it makes for easy grouping in folders and better indexing by launcher apps like Butler and Quicksilver.
My only request would be for Thexder as an .app.
Adding the info to this page of comments:

flannerus (2008-12-31)

Thank you for reuniting me with Stunts, used to have a Packard Bell back in '94 with Stunts on floppies. Outstanding game, level editor whaaat? This works great, though I was unable to open any of the games on my iMac Power PC G5 with 10.4.11, just quit the moment they opened. Thanks a much!

zimmm (2008-12-31)

Thanks for a great set of games.
I have tried simply clicking on the app file in Finder. The Icon bounces twice in the Dock and then stops.
I have Dosbox but it needs an exe file.
I cannot find the correct modified version of Dosbox.
I have tried Boxer as a frontend for Dosbox.
Please help.
Thanks again.

killerzip (2009-01-02)

Thanks very much for the Quake expansion packs! Great torrent!

homegrown07 (2009-01-02)

Please seed, i'm at 90% and I'll seed like crazy when I'm done!
Thanks for a great torrent!

eglisa (2009-01-04)

dude thanx so much for these. these are the best game pack i have ever come a cross..
any chance you could put some detail on how you are making these files.
oh just read fak-it comment
never mind
thanx again

eglisa (2009-01-04)

how can i get to fak-it's profile?

kurisuteru (2009-01-04)

IMPORTANT DOSBOX NOTE:
If any of you are having problems with the game never starting, and DOSBox quitting after the shortcut explanations:
On my system this was because I already had DOSBox installed with a custom config in my user DOSBox config dir. This had a custom autoexec.bat with drive C, D and some others mounted.
This lead to an error: DOSBox was unable to mount C to the .app's /Resources/ directory since it was already mounted.
Two solutions:
1) Delete your DOSBox default / user config, or:
2) Edit the [autoexec] section of the supplied game dosbox.conf (found in the app contents /Resources/dosbox.conf) to mount and point to a drive that's not already in use (e.g. G:)
If you want more info, google how DOSBox and DOS batch files / autoexec.bat works -- I'm not going to explain that for you. Take this as an opportunity to learn oldschool DOS wankery :)

jayedwards1 (2009-01-06)

can anyone direct me to a quake torrent on its own for mac? there doesnt seem to be one on here!! thanks

flax0910 (2009-01-06)

Hi buddy. Loving the collection here, but do you happen to have Mr. Cat's Quest? That shit was awesome.

daveggg (2009-01-07)

THIS IS BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!

colsan44 (2009-01-08)

Great stuff would love snes Lion King...have unfinished business with it!! universal binaries rock!

sbfish (2009-01-12)

THANK YOU!! everything works great---any chance u could post Warcraft 2:Battlenet Edition? The map editor is sickk hah

giventofly77 (2009-01-29)

I'm running 10.4, and some games start in fullscreen automatically - like Duke Nukem 3D and Death Rally - but most are played in a small window. Is there any way to get these to run in full-screen? After all, that's how I played 'em back in the day... :)
Cheers for a great set of uploads btw !!

Brona (2009-02-08)

OMG!! Populous! Sweet!!
Again thank you so much!

Etropal (2009-02-27)

Is there any possible way to get Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri?
Thanks :)

StarMike (2009-04-16)

I'm stuck in redneck rampage. I can't pass the space ship intro. How do I pass it? I can't start the game. The menu just flicker for half a second.

Mattachoo (2009-04-28)

If anyone knows how these games were packaged to run as stand alone applications, can they please explain it somehow or let me know? I would love to be able to package my own games and upload them but I can't figure it out. If ANYONE has ANY information, that would be fantastic. Thanks again for the great share!!

mrmc1981 (2009-06-06)

Okay, I have a feeling I'll be made fun of for asking this question, but here goes anyway. I'm playing police quest (from 1987) and when I type in save it asks for the directory, no matter what I put in it won't save, can someone help?

sperkins921 (2009-10-07)

I found if I just leave the save directory as the forward slash (or is it back slash? it's this one ---> \) or whatever is already in the box, the game does save. To check it, just type restore at the prompt and it should ask for the same directory and then the name of your file. Saving definitely works though....

Eugenet42 (2009-11-07)

Thank you very much!
There was also a good aviasimulator by Microprose, Airduel or Dogfight. If possible, please include it in another issue.

ragir (2009-11-28)

none of these games open on my OS X 10.4.11. :-( Do I need to get DosBox to run them?

jajabinks90 (2011-05-23)

can put star wars racer episode I on your next list?

BusyP (2011-12-20)
