DSx86 v0.05 released

[nl255]

Oh, and before anyone asks neither DesqView or Windows 2.0 will work. Windows 2.0 wants to use 640x200 even in MCGA mode and DesqView uses lots of dirty tricks to enable preemptive multitasking on the 8086. Also note that not even Dosbox can run Windows 1.x so don't bother with that either.

Things that don't seem to work:

Prince of Persia 4d
Sim City 2000
Monster Bash 1
Doom
Hocus Pocus
Wolfenstine 3D
WordHunt
StoryMOM
MegaMan x
Lemmings War
Hugo's House of Horrors
JetPack

Anything that won't work on an 8086 (including protected mode stuff) won't work. That means no DOS4GW or CWSDPMI. Anything that relies on a 640x??? graphics mode (including Windows 2.0) also won't work. Oh, and Ultima 1-5 don't currently work even though they are 8086 compatible but should be fixed in the next version.

Most of the games I tried to use were games I used to play in dos,

Bio Menace loads but then comes up with an opcode error

the oldest game I could find [Roomz] didn't work either

Keen4 works quite well though and Duke Nukem does too

I really thought that I would never see DOS on the DS, So I'm already content.

We know have functional DOS and Linux on DS. Awesome.

So, anyone tested Stronghold Crusader with this? (or already knows it won't work?)

0.06 is out now and both keen 4 and 5 works

zzt still doesn't work

Great emulator already. With mouse support and a higher resolution mode it would bring so many cool programs to the DS.
