Re: 3 bugs in 0.72 on Mac OS X

Thanks for the patch, and apologies for going dark on you folks; had a bunch of stuff come up unexpectedly. As the pause thingie is only a minor nuisance, as I've previously noted, I think I'll wait until this patch makes its way into the product and there is a subsequent OS X build. Thanks again; …

Re: 3 bugs in 0.72 on Mac OS X

the last bug is the result of the same thing. dosbox thinking that it is unfocused and hence it is paused. the only way to fix that is to regain focus or press the X on the menubar. Can you compile dosbox yourself ? I have an idea what might go wrong. Obviously dosbox looses focus on macos x (on …

Re: 3 bugs in 0.72 on Mac OS X

I think, the F-Keys does only work in fullscreen mode (press Cmd/Alt-Enter to switch) and, on a PowerBook/MacBook, if you press the Fn key at the same time. I entered Fullscreen, hold Fn-Ctrl-F1 at the same time and got it: OK, now we have a new more serious bug. :wink: I had successfully used Alt- …

Re: 3 bugs in 0.72 on Mac OS X

Thanks for such a detailed bug report. Way too few people thake time to find out that much before reporting :) As for 3), did you check that other Ctrl-F? key combos work? IIRC, the mac keyboard on a macbook pro is a bit strange regarding F-keys. "dosbox -startmapper" might be a help to you as well …

3 bugs in 0.72 on Mac OS X

I hope this is the right place to report bugs; I searched and searched for a bug report form but couldn't find one. First of all, kudos for 0.72!! I am able to run my much-beloved and missed larn, and the CPU tuning and such are fantastic! Running Leopard (10.5.1) on a new Macbook Pro (Intel). …

Re: larn123 and possible nansi problems

The game is freeware. I'm attaching the zip file. What you want to mount is the Program subdirectory, but first you'll want to add write permissions to that directory; otherwise the game complains that it can't write the score file. If you just move (using standard rogue movement keys) between the …

Re: larn123 and possible nansi problems

Two more things: 1) When I try to do Command-Q to quit DOSBOX, DOSBOX just sends 'Q' to the DOS game (larn123, in this case) rather than quitting DOSBOX. Very minor problem. 2) Since I play larn123 at a very high difficulty level (7 or 8), I lose a lot of games quickly before I get traction. To …

larn123 and possible nansi problems

First of all, thank you for a great piece of software! I have been running larn123 on my Mac via Virtual PC and freedos, and not only does that mean I have to deal with That Redmond Company, it also ate my machine alive. Once I grokked the gestalt, I was able to get larn123 up and running …
