Re: Pentium MMX emulation patch

Posted on 2020-06-26, 11:02

I think that's a bit of a mess at the moment. When X86_DYNFPU_DH_ENABLED is defined and the dyn_x86 core is active, it saves/restores the x87 state when it enters/exits the dynamic code (to the dyn_dh_fpu struct) but never actually copies everything back to the global FPU_rec struct. So TL;DR: you …

I am trying to save/restore host mmx regs <-> dosbox fpu regs, in order to be able to switch between recompiler and interpreter and comment out opcodes from the recompiler, until eventually I get the wrong instruction. Any hint on how to perform this in the recompiler?

I was looking for an efficient way to implement mmx instruction set to the dynamic recompiler when I found that someone made this addition to my patch https://github.com/joncampbell123/dosbox-x/pull/290/files seems quite fast, unfortunately it does not seem to work correctly in all cases (i.e. …

This is a recent DOSBox-X commit but I think it should be easily adaptable to SVN and other forks. I just updated the patch in the first …

Also noted is that the way it's integrated technically allows MMX instructions in 386, 486, and Pentium CPU types even if CPUID doesn't report MMX extensions, which I consider a bug. I just added bit 23 to EDX. Is there something else? I haven't looked much into this. Another one I noticed is that …

Pentium MMX emulation patch

Posted on 2020-06-23, 16:00

Hi everyone, I fixed an old patch I have made years ago. It adds Pentium MMX emulation to Dosbox. The instructions are for the interpreter; the recompiler can use it too, but it has to fall back to the interpreter core. It finally allows to run games which strictly require this instruction set, like …

Hi everyone, I found some time to set up again my compiler environment. This is an updated patch against current svn. - fixes minor compiling issues - fixes a major video memory leak in Quake2 and Descent2 Quake2 uses sort of dynamic textures for realtime lighting, changing existing textures thus …

You'd need to reverse engineer the Warp Engine for G200; Matrox never publically released documentation. From what I got from driver sources and from this specification , it looks like there are few fixed pipelines for basic rasterizers: For optimum performance, more then one pipe is provided to …

I agree with getting accurate emulation with cards like the 3dfx, which featured 16-bit color renderer and dithering. D3D cards from the G200 era onwards, on the other hand, featured 32bit color renderers not much different from what you will get by just forwarding triangle calls to an opengl …

Yep. I actually thought that if I ever worked on it, it would not provide a software rasterizer at all. But, for me, it was just to get a better directx support than voodoo, not for emulating the g200 accurately. I can understand it's not the scope of this project.

Hi, I gave a look at this after quite some time, and I must say it's coming together very nicely. Rock stable, lot of hardware is emulated, user friendly interface.. I got few questions, but I couldn't register on the official forums. I can't find a regularly updated repository; it's not maintained …

VIDEO - 3dfx voodoo emulation (SDL1)

Hi all! I'd like to share with you all the latest 3dfx patch with opengl accelerated rendering. No one worked on it in years, but still, it works quite nice, even if it's not bug-free. The following options will be available into your config file: [pci] # voodoo: Enable VOODOO support. # Possible …
