Setting the timed option to false fixes the problem. Thanks!
Re: Terminal Velocity Does not Read 360 Controller Properly

I tried the game with an Xbox 360 controller and a Logitech RumblePad 2, and I got that calibration issue with both controllers. It appears to be related to the game's joystick support, since I can use them in other games (in DOSBox) without problems, and the issue doesn't occur when the game is not …
Re: Kyrandia 1 and Mixed MIDI
Posted on 2009-06-20, 21:26
According to MobyGames, Kyrandia needs a Roland MT-32 (or compatible) for its MIDI soundtrack. Most PCs today have General MIDI, which isn't compatible with MT-32 MIDI. You'll have to either use one of the Sound Blaster options, get a real MT-32 (or CM-32L/CM-64), or use Munt. The MT-32 allowed …

ISO images don't contain CD audio. You would need to make a BIN/CUE image. Are you able to play other CD games properly? Perhaps the game accesses the CD drive in ways that aren't properly supported in DOSBox.

Please update to DOSBox 0.73. DOSBox 0.72 is old now.
Re: Aspect ratio in fullscreen (widescreen)

As for the scaling issue, I've found that DOSBox doesn't do hardware scaling on high-color images unless output=ddraw is used. This includes emulated high-color video modes, and all output with the machine=vgaonly setting. Correct, Tsyu. That can't be his problem though, since he started with a …

Re: CGA graphics
Posted on 2009-06-07, 20:15
The -c tag is for the CGA composite mode, which was meant to be used with a TV set. The -r tag uses the CGA RGB mode. In DOSBox, the -c tag requires the cga machine to display properly. Playing King's Quest with the cga machine, without any tags, uses the composite mode. Also, I'm pretty sure that …
Re: How do I run Descent II on Win XP with DosBox?

Use this command (with the slash after CD): CD\GAMES\DESCENT2 After that, type D2 to play the game, or SETUP to enter the configuration utility.
Re: Wizardry VII: Anyway to fix the sound?
Posted on 2009-06-04, 06:38
My previous post only refers to the very first sound in the game. After playing through some more, I have encountered the same issue that you're having. The clicking sounds appear to be caused by the way DOSBox emulates the PC speaker, and not from speaker deactivation. It seems weird that a game …

Within DOSBox, reinstall Descent II to the default directory (C:\GAMES\DESCENT2 on the mounted drive), then try the commands in the above post.
Re: usnf dosbox ?s

Type dir /w in the game directory (within DOSBox). Do you see usnf.exe? If you do, what is the exact error you get when you try to run the game?
Re: Soccer Kid CDRom > problem with music Tracks
Posted on 2009-05-31, 07:27
Both D-Fend and DOSBox 0.70 are old. Use DOSBox 0.73 instead. Also, are you able to play the music in Windows Media Player (or another audio player)?
Re: Wizardry VII: Anyway to fix the sound?
Posted on 2009-05-29, 03:30
Just tried it myself, and it seemed fine. Can you post an output sample (from 0.73)?
Re: Ultima Series for DOSBox

I think it's a better idea to allow the user to toggle between RGB and composite with a key combination, if that's possible.
Re: Emulate PC Speaker with Soundcard
Posted on 2009-05-12, 21:12
If you mute the FM channel in the DOSBox mixer, do you get sound in Wizardry 7 when the Sound Blaster option is enabled? I think the game may be using a trick to play sound effects on the OPL2 chip. I have another game that can do this, and the result is similar.

Open the keymapper, remove the bindings for the shift keys, then try to reassign them (to your shift keys).

Are you using the 2006 collection? If so, you'll have to install in Windows since it doesn't have a DOS installer.

How are you mounting your drives? In which directory is your game located?
