      I got Heroes 3 running with the addition of the -no3d parameter. Fairly stable it seems.

      WINEDEBUG=-all LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/retropie/supplementary/mesa/lib/" setarch linux32 -L /opt/retropie/ports/wine/bin/wine '/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/box86/box86data/Heroes/drive_c/GOG Games/Heroes of Might and Magic 3 Complete/Heroes3.exe' -no3d -doublebuffer

                  Every game responds differently. Sometimes you can play for hours, sometimes it crashes.

                    The Famous Five: Treasure Island, except the known intro video bug, works fine.

                              I never figured out how to get this going, but has anyone tested or willing to test the freeware version of Vanguard Princess?

                                Don't forget that Windows on Raspberry can run a great many games, but is a horror show to create a working image. It took me an entire weekend.

                                System Config: Retropie 4.4 with full desktop, RPi 3B, 256gb SD, 5v 2.1A 5,200 mAH USB battery. EasyMSX controller mounted with Pimoroni Hyperpixel 4 (non touch). Also running 4.6 on a 4gb Pi 4 serving as my primary desktop computer now.

                                  Ahoy .
                                  Mugen 1.0 and some mugen 1.1 run really good .
                                  Second picture is list of current mugens i have run good.
                                  Using 640x320 resolution, and fullscreen. Some run fine with higher res but most don't.

                                    @troopaking I've followed your tutorial verbatim and successfully installed Wine and Box86!

                                    However, I was unable to get Vanguard Princess to work. It loads to black and then returns to Emulationstation. EDIT: I've tested it on my PC, and it runs fine. Am I missing a step with the .conf file? I copied the code exactly as you wrote it, with the obvious exception of adding my folder name and file name. EDIT 2: .sh method didn't work either. I'm starting to think I'm just out of luck...

                                      @dodonpachi some games won't run . Test something easier first . Also please to go to linked forum to discuss.

                                        Balders Gate(only .sh), Unreal spooky castle and skifree run great .
                                        Aslo if anyone wants to map keyboard and mouse to joystick refer to discussion post . We have been working on it and are very successful. All my games played with a ps3 style controller .

                                          Half Lie 1 runs good except for first menu lol.

                                          Worms Forts Demo runs really good .

                                          GoldenAxe Myth runs good and is a cool indie freeware game .

                                          Wolfenstien Enemy Territory is another good indie game .

                                          Will attach pictures of all soon.

                                            @troopaking question
                                            is there any benefit to running the games through box86/wine instead of using the ports that are working good on the pi for half-life and Wolfenstien Enemy Territory.

                                            or are you just seeing what will work and what wont?
