trying to understand what needs to get done with this is making my head hurt.
i think i might just not bother. i dont have a clue where to start

Up - couldn't anyone figure it out :( ? I'd love to be able to play those fantastic games on my Pi :(

Unfortunately, based on my research, eRampage never got developed past the early "proof of concept" stage. eDuke32 supports Duke Nukem 3D, its addons, NAM, some World War II game I've never seen and that's it. No Shadow Warrior, no Redneck Rampage, no Blood. Sorry, guys. Apparently, supporting these games requires quite a bit of reverse engineering since they never went open source. It's a miracle we've seen people do that kind of work on a few games like Strife and miracles aren't guaranteed with every game.

Oh, ok, that's so sad :'( ... I played the hell out of RR back when I was a kid and it would have been awesome to relive that on the Pi.

once the pi gets more powerful it can be played in dosbox, but right now. it dont run worth s$!t.

so sadly we will have to wait

[Rulwok]

I know, I've tried it on Dosbox and it runs terrible ...

Yes but from what I've heard, the Pi 4 is not coming any time soon, is it?

[ExarKunIv]

@Rulwok

yea its going to be a bit for the pi4

[BenMcLean]

I seem to recall it running terrible on most DOS machines back in the day anyhow. People running it OK back then were almost certainly using Windows 98 machines. You might look into adjusting the DOSBOX settings.

resolution-wise, you mean? I've tried lowering it to the minimum in the game's options, but it did no good, just a slight improvement in frame rate, but not by much
