Well I found the culprit it was all because of an external program I was using. Its called XOutput and it converts dinput, keyboard and mouse to xinput. See I had this controller that has two modes dinput and xinput. But for whatever reason the xinput mode broke and only the dinput mode was …

if it was doing that it would happen on other software too but it only happens on dosbox.

So I’m having this problem with dosbox, after a few minutes of gameplay randomly the mouse will just cut out and not work. Pressing CTRL-F10 does nothing. The only way to get it back is to either alt tap and alt tab back in or exit and reenter fullscreen. This not an issue with a certain game as it …

Been messing with doom in dosbox and noticed that there is no key to go to the next or previous gun. Even chocolate lets you cycle weapons and that is suppose to be hardcore accurate.

"an angry bee" hhmmm ya i guess you could describe what I'm hearing as a buzzing sound so it is the game, main sometimes its hard to tell whats the game and whats the emulator. take super mario land it occasionally shows some glitched graphics on its hud at the top of the screen. must have spent …

so in Wolfenstein when you hit the wall or press it the sound is all garbled. Its not related to the number of cycles since I tried reducing the game to like 2 fps and still the sound was all messed up, just a lot slower. I tried i tried changing the sound blaster card, the block size and the …

thank you it worked is there a reason why the devs couldn't have just said that in the first place? Is it really that hard to type out "CTRL D", and what about the manuals paper and ink is cheap? Also whats up with the ^ symbol, whats that suppose to mean? Ugh no wonder DOS games are so obscure its …

In the game Descent when you go to set your controls the game says press ^d to delete and ^r to reset. But I can't find any way to input this I even looked in the manual (1 & 2). If I press shift it just assigns it so there is now way for me to put ^ in in the first place I'm going crazy here?

well good news i got it to work here is my autohotkeys script in case it interests anyone. q::send {Ctrl Down}{left down} q UP::send {Ctrl up}{left up} ^a::send q e::send {Ctrl Down}{right down} e UP::send {Ctrl up}{right up} ^f::send e a::left d::right w::up s::down left::a right::d up::w down::s …

tried changing the output nothing

Dosbox seems to only partially recognize Autohotskeys. I can send a signal key but not two at the same time. So making q=ctrl or making q=left works. But making q=ctrl+left will not work. This works just fine in other programs, games, and emulators so it seems to be something on Dosbox’s end any …

Ah good that clears things up. I first noticed this when looking at screen shots online and saw that their aspect ratio was different from mine. It’s probably because everybody uploads screenshots from dosbox rather than get it from real hardware. My guess is dosbox’s screenshot just captures the …

So DOSBOX can do one of two things aspect correction and no aspect correction. It would seem that aspect correction forces 4:3. And from what I can tell turning it off gives you the internal aspect ratio similar to what’s happening here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssluTgfkdlg (maybe). With …

Getting sound to work in Dosbox is difficult. This is because sometimes I can’t tell if there even is supposed to be music in a certain part of the game. There are few games I would like to ask about regarding the music Eye of the Beholder When I’m in the first Dungeon the sound effects work but …

I found out how get the sound up you set MPU-401 to none. I have no clue way this worked but it did. 😁

I am Trying to make star control 1 run on my computer using Dosbox ver .72. the game will run its just that there is absolutely no sound at all. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
