Good but a bit of a missed opportunity and never had the following CSF 2 had.
|
|
Microsoft Flight Sim 98
|
|
Good solid flight sim. A bit dated by todays standards - but also does not require a very powerful PC.
|
|
Microsoft Flight Sim 2004
|
|
Okay - I’ve got this one and its pretty good - but where oh where are the guns?! No decent crashes or forced landings either :-(
|
|
Microsoft Space Simulator
|
|
Runs under XP with DOSBox 0.63 - slow screen updates.
|

|
|
Nations WWII Fighter Command
|
|
Good looking WWII combat flight sim from 1999. Runs under XP with Win95 compatibility mode. Use ‘j’ at start of each flight to enable joystick. Flight model a bit suspect
|
|
Overlord
|
|
Looks like the same game engine as Dawn Patrol but with WWII planes. Runs under XP with DOSBox 0.63. Need CVS build for SVGA graphics.
|

|
|
Secret Weapons Over Normandy
|
|
Also available on the PS2 and it shows. very much a game and not a sim. Not currently installed.
|
|
Ultra Fighters
|
|
Futuristic flying game modeled on WWII dogfighting. Under XP - throws errors on startup - but does work. WIN95 compatibilty option under XP seems to make game worse not better - so don’t enable.
|
|
US Navy Fighters
|
|
Runs under XP with standard DOSBox 0.63.
|
|
Wings of Glory
|
|
Good looking WWI game from 1994. I have been able to get this working under DOSBox 0.63 - though need:
core=full
ems=false
Non flying screens work well but very slow to enter mission (and not at all without the ems=false). Flying is slow and joystick difficult to calibrate. Easier to use Windows programable stick to map to game control keys.
