There is one more thing I'd like to ask on the forums. What is the best way to run SH2 & DC?

I run them on Win7, but unfortunately Erich Topp videos won't play in SH2 as well as Ship Interiors in DC. Looks like a QuickTime problem, but all the videos and interiors work well outside the games. Game intros play as intended, though. I tried the same in Win10 and there were no problems at all, but I don't own this OS. Another option I tried is Wine under macOS where everything works absolutely good, except the shaded surfaces which are completely black. Looks like a sort of a lighting problem.

I consider setting up WinME or Win98 in DOSBox-X and try to install SH2 and DC there. Obviously, it is not an easy task.

If anyone knows any other easier ways of getting a better experience with the simulators I'll be glad to read it.
