FS98 On 86Box (Direct3D)

With my previous hardware setup with the AMD FX-4300 Quad-Core running at 3.8GHz, at least with Windows 95 at least, the fastest emulated speeds that I could reach at full performance was with the Pentium 1 running at 90MHz. For Windows 95 and a lot of the games, this would be fast enough. However, later games just wouldn't work. FS98 was one of those games. Windows 98 in general would have also been painful to use on a (emulated) PC with a 90MHz Pentium 1. When that machine bit the dust in the summer, a new rig was built with a AMD Ryzen 5 5500 6-Core processor running at 4.2GHz. It was time to test 86Box again. Not surprisingly, it ran much faster. With most systems, I could hold full performance with a 200-233MHz Pentium. This is fast enough to run Windows 98 relatively well, as well as most Windows games released around 1997-1998. Thus, it was time to test out FS98. I'm a FS junkie, so it was only a matter of time before I got around to this game. We are no strangers to Microsoft Flight Simulator on this channel, looking at the previous versions of the game running on the IBM PC/XT and Tandy 1000 emulated in PCEM, the IBM PS/1 emulated in IBMulator, and FS4 for DOS running under OS/2 v2.0, and FS95 running on Win95. While FS98 supports software mode, it was the first version of FS that included support for 3D acceleration. I equipped it with the 3DFX Voodoo 3. However, being a Microsoft title, it's not going to make use of Glide for obvious reasons. FS98 would be the showcase for DirectX. After updating DirectX, which also supported the Voodoo 3, I was flying in no time. While the game is playable and the FPS was mostly stable, there were significant slowdown/stuttering when switching between different camera angles or when changing camera modes. Now, I have played this game on period hardware in the past, so this is actually not anything too out of the ordinary. Such, one would be tempted in saying that 86Box delivers on an authentic experience when playing more demanding games on lower end hardware, as how PC gamers would have felt back in the day when in such situations. I wouldn't know if this is a good or bad thing. But the FPS was solid enough, even as I flew past the sparely populated Dallas skyline. 86Box is emulating a multimedia PC with a Shuttle HOT-6557 Socket 7 (Daul Voltage) i430VX motherboard, an IDT WinChip2 Processor running at 233MHz, 64MB's of RAM, and a 3DFX Voodoo 3 1000 GPU with Windows running at the screen resolution of 800 by 600, 16-bit color depth. A Creative Labs SoundBlaster 16 is installed along with an AMD PCnet-Fast III NIC. The Dell OEM version of Windows 98 is installed.
