Just found out that the menu bar was actually part of the Daum fork, and not a separate patch: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=36659#p319806 So, is DOSBox-X actually based on Daum? Because it has that too ... Anyway, turning only this part into a patch probably won't be easy. But I think …

Okay, this is DOSBox r4007 with ne2000 patch. If you need it, just get the EmuCR build and copy it in that directory. It needs the libpng 1.2 dll, not 1.6, because that was the most recent precompiled library version for VS. But renaming the dll file should work too, just replace the 6 with a 2.

No, I don't think that's it. But it seems that option was already available in h-a-l-9000s mega build: http://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=24324&p=183863&hilit=vmemsize#p183863 According to the DOSBox SVN wiki page, it's called "SVGA enhacements", but I don't know yet if there's a separate …

Right now I'm still struggling with version incompatibilities (Visual Studio 15 vs. SDL1, I think I can't use SDL2?), not sure if I really want to recompile SDL1 in the new VS, so right now I'm trying to use the VS10 build engine in VS15, which hopefully works after installing VS15 over VS10 (pure …

Of course I can use the Daum source and the SVN build it's based on to do a diff, I thought about doing that too, but I don't know if I'd be able to apply that as a patch on the new Dosbox SVN source. Has anyone tried that before? Or knows if that would work or not? But I just remembered, there …

I don't recall, it was long ago, at the time I wish he would have kept the large list of patches separate, lots of patches of interest but only thing I saw on offer was one big merged patch. big blob patch isn't really useful to isolating problems, which is the reason why I never used daum, always …

I don't think any fork with a removed dynamic recompiler looks good. Didn't know about that. Well, I'll probably try to add some patches to the official SVN then, at least the menu and NE2000 patch, maybe some others too. Might take a while though. When I'm done, maybe I'll post the binary here if …

What can I replace it with? 0.74 is too old and lacks features only Daum has. DOSBox-X looks good to me. OpenGL seems to be broken in the latest official binary build (which is almost two years old), but they are still working on it. You can try to compile it yourself: https://github.com/ …

And getting back to the original question (although it's probably too late now), it's actually quite simple to switch the font size, so I made some tools for setting 8x8, 8x14 and 8x16. That's all the predefined fonts, but of course it's possible to make your own, maybe even with a height different …

I made a small change to the file and uploaded it again. Nothing major, but I did overwrite the bits 4-6 of the vertical retrace end register before. Now those bits are preserved. It seemingly didn't really make a difference in this case (the bits were zero before, and the byte I wrote also had …

I noticed the screen height value of mode 10Ah is still set to 688, which means it actually is possible to get 132x86 by programming the CRT controller. A bit more difficult than I thought, but it was still fun and also interesting. Here's the result, made with debugx in 132x86 text mode, and tested …

Update: Just tried Dosbox-X, same problem as in Daum. The bottom part with the message is missing. I attached a screenshot. Strange ... 43 rows is historically related to 350-line EGA displays. The normal 25-row textmode used the 14-line font: 25*14=350, and loading the 8-line font: 43*8=344. I see! …

Now while this might seem like a logical thing to do at first, it does cause a problem. As an example, the program VACSID (which is something like Cubic Player, but for SID files) has a 132x43 mode (it doesn't support 132x50 or 132x60) which doesn't work properly because of this (it computes the …

I believe mode 54h (132x43) was changed to the 8-line font because that's accurate to real S3 video cards, but mode 55h (132x25) still has the 16-line font. As a result the 132x86 text with mode 54h and loading the 8-line font is no longer possible, but you can still get 132x50 with mode 55h. The …
