Do a web search for one of two programs: VDMS sound or DOSBOX. The former provides sound emulation for DOS while the latter produces a virtual DOS Shell that...
I made a post once before on how DL increases the difficulty of combat based on the sum of all your character skills - a project I tested with a character...
... Yay! I do, too. It's not something I see posted here often, but I like to have a party of generalists. I do wait until each person has skill >90 on a...
