>is it actual hardware?
Yes, an Xplore iX104C4 Tablet PC. I don't use it as a daily driver obviously but it's fun to play around with it occasionally and see what it can do with modern internet.

The browser I'm running in pic related is Serpent, a fork of Basilisk which itself is a fork of Firefox. It's the only XP-compatible browser that can load 4chan's captcha. I haven't tried the other browsers or other pre-XP OSs with Wapchan's captcha, but I do kind of want to try my virtualization of Windows 98 to see if it allows me to post.

>I do kind of want to try my virtualization of Windows 98 to see if it allows me to post
Looks like it works! I can see the captcha.
I'm running Windows 98 virtualized in Dosbox-X.

>>346
It didn't post the /bmp file I tried to attach though. Still, impressive that I was able to post on Wapchan on Windows 98!

>>346
Is Dosbox-X working well for Windows 9x these days? Last I tried it it seemed a bit unstable still but that was a few years ago now.

I've always wanted a hilariously overpowered XP machine so a Titan X Maxwell for the GPU, but I can't justify wasting several hundred on something like that.

I knew making this thread was a mistake

I did some crackmes many years ago and they are very labour intensive, I can only imagine how much effort needs to go into reverse engineering a whole game!

>>384
What do you mean by "Modernist portshit = Not" exactly?

This thread is fine. Don't let that get to you.

Heh, looks like this (admittedly laconic) post touched a nerve or two.

To put it in long form:

I'm all for reverse engineering that respects vintage games as vintage. Reconstructing source code (that can be recompiled to the original machine), ROM hacks, format specs, trainers/cheats, bugfixes, general advancement of knowledge on how it was optimized for a certain machine, all that good stuff.

What I'm NOT for (the "modernist portshit") is when it's a case of one of those morons who's always clamoring to game companies that "game X 'needs' an HD remake" decides to do it themself. Pushing bloated system requirements, pushing "upgrades" to CancerOS 10, shoehorning engines that were never meant for GL rendering into GL (or Vulkan or whatever the fuck it is these days), shoehorning everything into Unity (bet we'll see less of that one coming, at least), breaking compatibility with old files, making "fixes" that are actually just "the dev arbitrarily thought this should be changed and made the default if there even is a toggle for it", not releasing file specs they discover, and just generally raping over the game while acting like God's gift for "modernizing" it.

Obviously there's shades between the endpoints, and sometimes there're projects that are sorta good and sorta bad on this scale (i.e. if a project that's otherwise bad at least results in a release of detailed file specs that's a leg up for someone to do something better with them.)

Example of how this sort of shit does real damage for the people who want to dismiss as a pointless rave: I saw an LP of Dark Forces once (this was years before the official re-release, so unrelated to that) where the guy was using some shitty GL port because it "looked fantastic"; all good for the first few missions until he gets to places where some of the later weapons should be and it turns out that whatever moron made the port halfassed it and didn't bother to implement those properly. Nimrod playing the game just blithely assumes that the game was always broken like that, without ever seeming to stop to think that maybe his "looks fantastic" GL crap was to blame, or that maybe tPost too long.

I actually agree with you overall. I think remakes should generally keep the same look and feel as the originals or at least have the option to keep them similar. OpenRA is a project I've followed for a long time, but there have been deviations from the original games I really don't like (and there have been a lot of complaints about its balance being screwed up and the overall attitudes of the developers). Conversely, Wargus, the Stratagus Engine remake of WarCraft II seems to be trying to maintain the overall feeling of the original game and allows the player to toggle certain graphical deviations of the original on and off. You can even switch between new and old units stats. It's a small project that hasn't developed the following that OpenRA has had, but I think it finally might be starting to come along. Recently someone even started the Stargus project back up again, which aimed to give a similar treatment to StarCraft but had been abandoned for years. It's still in the pre-alpha phase though. I like the prospect of being able to play games like these on modern hardware or deal with companies like Blizzard and with the addition of added features people have come to expect nowadays. I dislike remakes that are focused on providing "better" graphics or forcing big changes on the player to "improve" the gameplay instead of ones that aim for authenticity while still extending the options available to the player.

Speaking of remakes, I might as well post this Doom image I found a long time ago. I've always found it interesting, although I don't know how well Doom would actually translate to 3D even if it actually looked that nice.

this has nothing to do with wapchan.

There's nothing wrong with this post, it's just a desktop thread.

laptop for comfy internet browsing!

Source of the image? I'm interested.
Since I don't want to be just a leech and ask without contributing, here's my current desktop.

The original source is privated, so the best I can give you is the mirror where I got it from in the first place: https://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=436583

>Mew is under the truck at M.S. Anne bro
Fuck you Kevin

Anyways, years later they actually found a bug to catch a legit Mew in first gen games.

https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Mew_glitch

I'm wondering if there is a way to get a legit Celebi in gen 2 though.

Googled it, there is and it sucks to actually execute.

>>31
I guess I never did it right then
Way back when this all happened my family didn't have a computer so looking up exactly how to do it was a mystery since I only had other kids word of mouth to go on
No Gameboys at school

I have two pokemon legends:
I)In pokemon platinum, if you dig enough under the earth you will be able to find and capture a red Arceus
II)In pokemon platinum, if you go to the hanuted house and manage to reunite the ghosts of the grandfather and the granddaughter you will receive a "prize" in return.
Useless to say that i have tried to do both pf these things countless times but never managed to get anything because it was all a legend but game wikis didn't exist back then. I post this ancient legend so that it may be remembered for the centuries to come.

wtf are you smoking? Wikis existed back in 2009 and were at the tail end of their golden age before troons showed up around 2016.

Okay but I'm not donating..
