You know the story about the the error message edited to say "Thank you for playing Wing Commander"? That doesn't actually happen in any version of the game. (www.wcnews.com)

I'm like 98% sure this happened with MOO2. I have it as a core memory of playing that game and was really disappointed that the newer bundled dosbox version doesn't do that. I have the disk from back in the day still now all I need is a windows 95/98, anyone able to point me to a resource to virtual install them on Windows 10 and I'll see what I can find out

There is virtual box, install shouldn't be too different from any other os

Are the disks optical or floppy?
