Hi there !
Since this is Good old Games forum, I figured it would be the best place to ask. I tried to google the problem, without result, so...
Does anyone know how to run Destruction Derby 2 for windows 95 on windows 7 64 ?
I know there is a dos version, but I only own windows 95 version, and the graphics are better so... I'm open to suggestions.

And here is two questions for our GoG team friends : do you know who owns the rights for this game now ? Cause Psynosis went out of business a long time ago, if I remember correctly. Any chance to see the windows 95 version on GoG someday ? :D

Can't you run it virtually with virtual PC and Windows 98 ?

I would also like to see Destruction Derby 1 and Destruction Derby 2 to be released on gog. Both were available on MS-DOS and should run via DOSBOX.

I think Psygnosis (remnants) became part of Sony? So no, I am not seeing their games appear here any time soon, at least if the rights to it are indeed nowadays owned by Sony.
Did it have specific 3d FX 'GLiDE' support? If so try nGLIDE - its been working wondered for me getting things to run lately...

And yeah, Sony have the rights and probably see every second you spend gaming on your PC a potential second you've spent not gaming on a PS4 so...

Unlike MS who have to at least APPEAR like they support windows as a gaming platform as they made it as well as they're shiny new console and all

edit - HOWEVER it seems like FlatOut 2 or, hopefully the Xbox 360 era HD version FlatOut: Ultimate Carnage is coming to GOG on Thursday - I HIGHLY recommend it to fans of Destruction Derby - you will love it, I guarantee!

ALSO many of the same people made a 3rd one but because it was for someone else they had to change the name - that one was Demolition Racer

Says Published by Inforgrames there - wonder what happened to it? I don't think it when to Tommo...
