Hi. I have not passed through here a time ago and I came with an idea. I was playing the classic 3D Pinball Space Cadet and wanted to see if possible a TAS of this game. The version I downloaded is for Win 7 and the same as shown in the image below. But I had a problem. I download the emulator Hourglass, because it is a PC game, but does not open the game. I don't know. Someone who could see if what I propose is relevant or possible to do. Personally, I like this game.

There is an XP version, too. Maybe that one would work?

Exotic platforms TASer of 2014 NES TAS of 2013
I think it's the same game in every Windows version it was included in (all of the NT operating systems), so 2000, XP, Vista, and 7. I would like to see a TAS of this too. I played it a lot years ago on my Windows 2000 computer.

I think the reason why hourglass won't work on it is because it has native OS GUI elements (drop down menus etc) that it doesn't support yet. Maybe try rerecording a dos pinball game?

But I have not seen a new release of hourglass. They have developed a new version?
