Windows 7 IPX workaround?
I play a very large collection of older games such as DooM, Tyrian, Screamer, Descent and dungeon keeper.

Is there any way I would be able to get the IPX protocol ( or some workaround ) for windows 7 that lets me play these LAN with friends?

Small update : I found this : http://www.solemnwarning.net/ipxwrapper/

I don't know if it will work but it looks promising. Will update if it works.

It seems to have worked thus far.

I've also found out that DOSBOX also has its own IPX wrapper too for any games on that.

Overall I think the problem seems solved.
