Compiled: May 24, 2024


XTulator is an x86 PC emulator that is designed to run software that was written for Intel processors up to the 80186. It's able to run MS-DOS, FreeDOS, Windows 3.0, and many games of the era. It supports graphics up to the EGA/VGA standard, and emulates the Sound Blaster 2.0 as well as Adlib/OPL2 (using Nuked OPL). It also emulates peripherals like the standard Microsoft-compatible serial mouse and a serial modem, which can simulate phone line connections via TCP. An NE2000 Ethernet adapter is also emulated using pcap.

It's very much a work in progress. There are still some bugs and it's not as accurate as something like 86Box, however it's capable of running a lot of software correctly in the current state. This includes many classic DOS games! It also can run Windows 3.0 correctly.

Usage:

Run the following command to see all available command line options:

XTulator.exe -h



If you'd just like to quick start it using the provided sample hard disk image, run this command:
