Does anyone remember The Settlers? That pixel that resembled a sword? The soldiers that take turns to swing their weapon's at each other and miss? The sound of pigs grunting in the slaughterhouse? What do you think of the squares of color that made up The Settlers II? I once completed 9 missions, and lost all of my saves :sad: How far did everyone else get?
a looong time ago at one point i couldn't get off it! ah i now temped to play it again haha
It is one of many older games I intend to install and try run successfully in this fresh install of Windows 7 (32-bit) that I have done today. I suspect it will run best in DosBOX or similar Dos emulator.
I've installed Win7 32-bit instead of 64-bit because there isn't a 64-bit version of Creative ALchemy to re-enable hardware accellerated audio on Audigy cards in games that use DirectSound3D.
I've loved playing the Settlers games so much that I own two copies of Settlers 3 so that I can legally play it multiplayer! :smile:

What Classic PC game do you miss?

I'm now looking at my copy of Homeworld: Cataclysm and Homeworld 2 and wondering if can get them to play OK in a fresh install of Windows 7 (32-bit).
Have you tried either in Win7?
