Hah hah, finally my team and i have almost finished our emulator for Warcraft I & II, which is 100% legal.
We have incorporated much source code from dosbox, and compiled so so much of our own.
We will be releasing it soon after our Beta testers have had theor final say.
The emulator will un on almost any PPC, though the faster the PPC, the better the emulation.
Warcraft II requires a VGA Pocket PC or third party software (which DOES cause glitches! )
We are very happy with our efforts but still busy at work on finaising webspace, and rolling out bugs (DiE!)
Anyway, this software will be released as freeware, with paypal donations WELCOME .
Wel thats all for now, when we get a chance some Screenies will be released!
But until then just wait patiently people, we have much work to do and we may not always reply straiht away to your queries.

You'd better work on QEMU port. Its emulation speed is 3-4 times faster than DosBox. Source code and test binaries can be downloaded from my page (http://mamaich.kasone.com). Most of work is already done by me. Only keyboard/mouse/stability fixes and screen scaling is needed.

It's very nice that you're doing something like such an emulator.
But I have a question:
Would it be a big problem for you to compile this emulator for StarCraft, too???
Thx

Starcraft is a Windows program. You'd add dozens of layers of complexity, and would never run at a decent speed.

Wow people actually are waiting for me to show up?
Well it is actually expected for me to show up here indeed, since I was the first to introduce Mamaich's Bochs emulator here, trying to get Warcraft to work .
