OpenTTD new version :) At the moment we can play with 0.7.4 only but at least will be something to compare wit native build.

They have a lot of platforms on the list

You've tried with qemu already or are suggesting it?

Just to show the graphical responsiveness, here is sol.exe running:

Wow, this is definitively impressive, maybe that some old windows games will be playable at decent speed with OC.

Shouldn't need OC for many basic old games

Love the work being done here. Would be grateful for a full howto. Would be happy to write one up if you would be willing to walk me through a basic install. I realize you have limited cycles left so let me know if there is some other way I can help. Have used WINE quite extensively on other linux builds.

Yes but for more advanced games like Starcraft or Age of Empires, does they will be playable at decent speed ?

Do you think it will possible to use dropbox for linux with qemu ?

How old are they? How fast a cpu do they need? Do they need 3D?

This technique emulates a 250MB ram pentium I @ 90-133MHz with no 3d accel and compatibility comparible with wine. I've not tested audio at all and I've hit at least one issue with the screen size on a solitaire clone.

Notepad and solitaire are very usable/fast. I've yet to find a download for something more adventurous.

I'll do a howto soon, although the details are in the two threads I've been updating.
