Oh joy, I'm sure this sounds as stupid as my last "win95 emu"
suggestion :) but what about giving allegro DirectX support? All I
mean, is that, if the user has a DirectX driver that works with his or
her hardware setup, let Allegro take advantage of it. This way games
made with Allegro support DirectX, too. All that would really need to
be supported (at least at the start) would be 3D, sound and whatever
plain old beautiful 2D is called. No idea how the design of the two
(Allegro / DirectX) compares, but maybe someone more knowledgable has
a better idea if this is plausable...?
