anyone manages to get the cd version of return to zork properly? earlier versions of dosbox made it possible to install, but then the beginning was so slow that you couldnt even do anything. this new dosbox versions does not even run the install program, but if i install some other way the slowdowns …

Just wanted to report some issues with these games. 2400 A.D. seems to hang as soon as you press space bar to begin the game. Silicon Dreams (from level 9) hangs as soon as you pick the colour mode. This with latest dosbox. And I've tried changing machine settings. Sel.

just reminding of one problem that never seemed to get an answer. ultima 2 and 3 vga updates don't work in dosbox, as previous graphics remains behind all the time, so for instance "Invalid Move!" stays behind when one walks north, resulting in Northnd Move!

At least now i know about the machine variable. Although some games stil give me trouble. The updates for ultima 3 and 2 that update graphics to 16 colours give an odd error. When directions etc are written out as the char walks around or performs actions, they arent written on more than one line, …

just another comment about the newest dosbox. in thh game black cauldron by sierra, all sprites move in very weird ways and multiply across the screen in 0.61, whereas the game works fine in 0.60. not sure if it's a setting problem but i tried the same conf with both.

it does work in 0.60 so i thought maybe it was some bug that developers would be interested in. this just applies to ultima 4 with the 256 graphics upgrade and the midi addon.

Hi, for some reason ultima 4 with upgraded graphics doesn't work properly in the new version of dosbox. the intro screen looks garbled and the actual game graphics do not use the patch update for some reason but the normal ones. for some reason ultima 5 (with upgraded music) does work in this …

Hi, in dosbox 061, it seems impossible to start with fullscreen enabled: fullscreen=true fulldouble=false fullfixed=true fullwidth=640 fullheight=480 output=opengl hwscale=1.00 autolock=true sensitivity=100 waitonerror=true it just changes resolutions into a black screen and then exits. however, if …

well in ultima underworld 1 for instance, using adlib the voices are far higher than the midi music. changing the wav volume in windows makes the midi music lower as well, and the midi slider has no effect at all on either sound or music. and i'd use mt-32 but the results are of course very bad …

this same thing happens to me except in my case the character keeps walking forward constantly. no commands will work, except the mouse when you select difficulty of the game.

hi, do any of you know how to set the relative volume of wav and midi? some games have far too high wav and too low midi. however, no programs like sbset and sbmixer seem to work through autoexec.bat. the windows volume control doesnt work since it seems that all sound (in the real operative system) …

well..maybe midpak requires windows somehow? not sure if it works in pure dos, since these updates were created after windows 98 was introduced. though everything about it and the setup program looks like dos.

well regarding what midpak is i'm not quite sure, apparently some way of implementing midi in games that do not previous have music. the message says error loading midpak midi driver. the ultima upgrades i refer to are at http://exodus.voyd.net/ and are patches for using midi music in ultima 5 and …

hi, since the dos emulation in xp seems rather flawed, lately i've started running basically all dos games through dosbox. however, some games that have been updated with midi support or a similar feature (such as ultima 3 and ultima 5) do not work, as the program claims it cannot load midpak. …

this problem is annoying and i'd also appreciate any assistance. and by the way why is there no vga patch for ultima 5? it seems odd it hasnt received as much as attention as ultima 4 as i always thought it superior. regards Sel.

hi, since i'm trying to use dosbox with gamebase i was wondering if there is any way to get the emulator to run from a configuration file or something similar, preloading defaults that are suitable for a specific game. gamebase lets you pick the emulator to use and the file to load into the emulator …

hi, as i use a card mainly for music (terratec dmx fire), there is no wavetable support on it. to get midi sounds it seems a software synth has to be used such as sound canvas (roland). does this mean that no dos game will have wavetable sound? or can dos games run with softsynths. also i wonder if …
