Cool. Thanks!

Thank you for posting this Lou. :D

Shame they won't run in 64-bit systems

VERY NICE! :D

Awesome, thank you.

The official Hint Books are even included, very nice.

Sweet. Aw. Anyone know of a workaround?

Yeah, if you have a professional version of Windows 7 you can use the "XP Virtual Mode" thingy, run that, copy the installers over, install them in the XP system.

Then the shortcuts should appear in your start-menu under "Windows Virtual PC" and "Windows XP Mode Applications". If you run those specific shortcuts in Win 7 they run the programs within XP Mode while keeping Win7 running normally.

An annoying workaround I know. You can blame Microsoft for randomly dropping support for 16-bit applications.

Definitely warrants a look. Thanks for posting.

Interesting find, Lou.
Thanks for sharing this!

Thanks for the heads up; these'll go really well on my old 400 MHz Power Mac G4.

Blades of Exile's source code was released under GPLv2 some time ago, and I think some people actually compiled a more modernized version of it that'll run properly on Windows and OS X. I don't know if they're still working on it though.

Best workaround for me is an old XP Laptop - otherwise Crosmando's got it right. ;-)

YES! FINALLY, THEY'RE FREE!

Thank you +1

(and thank you to Licurg for poing the thread out to me)

That's awesome :D
