Now do Myth:TFL please! (And Soulblighter) These are painful to even barely get working on modern machines.

Honestly, just use full virtualization.

Modern hardware is fast enough that anything that's too old to run directly is (usually) also no so demanding as to be a problem under full virtualization.

Yeah, I guess I'll end up doing that. I managed to get some other old games going under various versions of Proton or vanilla Wine but Myth seems really finicky. WinXP VM it is, I guess!
