TheJetfighter 1 Posted May 3, 2023 Hello everyone! Thanks for let me join the page. This is my first post in the forum and I hope I can get some light in this issue. I've been a fan of the Jetfighter saga since the nineties and so far I've been able to play all the games of the saga on modern PCs except Jetfighter IV: Fortress America. I have tried different VMs (VM Ware, VirtualBox) with different windows versions (98, XP, 7, Vista) and different JFIV releases. On some cases I could run the game to the point to actually get into flying. The problem is that it get extremely slow with a flickering image. Has someone been able to successfully run JFIV on a modern set up? If so, what would be the process? Thanks in advance for the comments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+DoctorQuest 125 Posted May 3, 2023 Interesting project. I don't remember the preferred graphics driver for this? D3D? Glide? You may need to google around for a graphics wrapper depending on what graphics settings can be selected. For games like this I have a multiboot rig so I can run Win XP and Win 7 native rather than under a VM. Not sure if you have that option. Sorry I can't be more help at the moment.

According to the game's box, it requires Direct X compatible 3D accelerator. For other games I use nGlade as the wrapper. I haven't tried the game on a native windows (95, 98, XP) boot. What software do you use for multiboot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+DoctorQuest 125 Posted May 4, 2023 No special software just Windows Boot Manager. Here is an article that can get you started. https://www.techadvisor.com/article/728246/how-to-dual-boot-windows.html There are plenty more examples out there in internet land.
