That sounds like a compiler problem. I haven't tried building PCem for Linux but what if you built it with -O2 instead of -O3? Or with Clang instead of GCC? Good idea! With -O2 the crash happened immediately after clicking the "Load" button to start the OS. -O1 seems to be working, no crash. My GCC …

BTW, the crash seems to happen only with the release build so a quick fix is to compile the debug build: ./configure --enable-debug

FYI, DOSBox ECE is available from AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dosbox-ece/ There were some annoyances in installing the package: - The package version is old (r4465 vs 4470) - The source download link is wrong (partially because of the old version but looks like the URL doesn't work even …

The most difficult Pacman clone I've played: https://youtu.be/e2m0SUQZJ4s It's a "prank/joke" game. I think you're not even supposed to beat the 1st level. And I'm sure there are a lot of games with a similar idea.

System Shock 's interface was poorly-thought-out, unplayable garbage False, incorrect, not true, that's just your opinion. The control scheme System Shock uses is very similar to many RPGs of the time. There's even a fan made mod for mouselook if you absolutely need it. ...nowadays, we say System …

The glide2x.ovl that comes with ECE should work fine with nGlide. What I meant is that you need a glide2x.ovl that came with a real 3Dfx card drivers for the [pci] glide emulation option.

Which version of the game? There are at least 3 different glide patches: Alternative Carmageddon 3dfx patch I've been using VOODO2C.EXE with DOSBox + nGlide before without any problems. It works with the [pci] option as well (as long as you have the correct glide2x.ovl file).

Why do you want to use the DOSBox keymapper when the game's own setup program (setup.exe) has options to configure the controls? Or is the GOG version missing the setup.exe?
