Gogmix for pandora games :)

I've played and tested Rise of the triad and Jagged Alliance 2


There's also links to the appropriate engine/port downloads for each game. If any of the engines don't work, let me know so I remove them from the gogmix.

You don't need to rename all the files to lowercase in JA2. I didn't. That must be from an older beta version.


Don't forget to add id's stuff!

^I don't think id is on gog.


I think Heroes of Might and Magic II works under fheroes2, but I cannot independently verify.


Edit: Also, this.

You sure about Baldur's Gate 2? I've read on these forums that it runs slower than Christmas day. Wouldn't want anyone to waste their money.

Christmas usually goes quickly for me, so this wouldn't put me off.

Baldur's Gate 1 has been running nicely in gemRB, maybe add that?

 

[Blue Protoman]

Heroes of Might and Magic 2?

 

[Gerix]

^Yeah. There was talk about porting over a HoMM3 engine, but I haven't heard how successful that was. Still, 2 was good. Not as good as 3, but it's ok as long as you go forward and not backward from 1-3. Four is pretty different from three, and I imagine five followed what four started, so I think you can go backwards from those.

How come id's stuff isn't on GOG? That's like half the Pandora's data files library.

It is a bit weird, id still sell doom2 on their own site here for $20!

Id games are also available on steam, even with lower prices, especially when bought in bundles. The only requirement is a PC with windows for download.

 

[Blue Protoman]

You'd think that it would cost more on Steam.
