The trick is that Unreal has (besides Glide and Direct3D) very optimized software renderer WITHOUT hardware acceleration. (well, maybe only some bliting from RAM into VideoRAM)
I was asking about the possibility of Unreal in DOS because it reports only one missing import and statement "ShellExecuteW" sounds like something not difficult to implement it.
