Video Description:
How to run MegaRace on your Newer Computer, featuring DOSBox emulation and tips on how to emulate "MegaRace"! If you don't how to run DOSBox at all, then check this video out!
Check out DOSBox at:
http://dosbox.sourceforge.net
To download the MegaRace Emulator Patch:

The text is the video goes as follows:
Hello, fellow MegaRace fans! MegaRace is one of many videogames made for DOS. Unfortunately for us, DOS is almost obsolete! But, thanks to emulation, we can "emulate" almost any DOS program, including "MegaRace"! This is DOSBox: one the best emulators for DOS! It works just like a DOS command line prompt and almost perfectly emulates "MegaRace"! But, before we can emulate MegaRace, we need three things:
1. DOSBox. You can download it for free at:
http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/
2. MegaRace CD-ROM. You can buy one of these on eBay
3. MegaRace Emulator Patch. You can download off my MegaRace fansite.
http://www.freewebs.com/raceprg/megarace_emulator_patch.zip
Once you have all of these, you'll be ready to emulate "MegaRace"! Okay, let's get started! First, "unzip" the contents of the "megarace_emulator_patch.zip" file. The contents in the zip file are basically the file that contain the saved data for MegaRace's high scores, etc. After that, go to C:\ and create a new folder called, "MEGARACE". Then, take the contents from the zip file and place them INSIDE the "MEGARACE" folder.

Ahh, yes, the old CD I got when I was, like, 5...or even 6. Really good on a Pentium 3, stock. It was about the coolest game at the time, because it was shooting and racing AT THE SAME TIME! Really good video, but I don't wanna wreck the game by installing a patch...

I can't get good graphic on dosbox - I remember it was guite nice on my old P133, but on dosbox it's so pixelised. Anyone knows how to fix it??? PLEASE!

that's because ... ( 6 months ago by SynaMax)

that's because DOSBox enlarges the screen to twice the size by default. To make the game less pixelized, go find your Dosbox.conf file in your DOSBox directory and open it. Find the part of the file where it says, "scaler = normal2x" and replace normal2x with 2xsai. That should fix it.
