End of life for DOSBox ECE As you may have noticed, development of DOSBox got somewhat... slow in the recent past. And since DOSBox ECE is based on the SVN of the official DOSBox releases, of course there weren't (m)any new releases of that as well. I must admit, that I wasn't too sorry about the …

I believe there is an error with this code. I didn't realize until I was comparing r4479 to r4477. The code in that post is doing a direct comparison between two character arrays (const char*) using == . This is undefined behavior as it is really just comparing the value of two pointers and not the …

I'm not sure when it changed, but I noticed in upgrading from Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04 where they use v2.2.5 of libfluidsynth in the repository. ECE still uses Fluidsynth 1.16, because the patch I use doesn't work with never versions, so it might as well be that the current options are still correct …

Hey, not sure whats wrong, General Midi output in games like Duke3D and Doom doesn't seem to work in r4477, works fine in r4475. After reintegrating the patch with the two Glide wrappers I forgot to update the patch for the MT32 support, which resulted in the MT32 emu becoming the default MIDI …

Alright, with r4477 I (hopefully) re-added the external Glide wrapper, please give it a try.

Thanks for pointing out those issues, it seems those were introduced when I switched back from using the patch embedding the external Glide wrapper support. The patch only adding the internal wrapper is older and still had those two issues. Sorry about that! I fixed them just now so the source …

I'm stuck with DOSBoxECE r4288, the last one working fine with any joystick including my Hori Fighting Stick Mini: the problem is probably the same those few games have: latest builds of DOSBox ECE work only with gamepads having X/Y-axis etc, not with DPAD directions. I just gave it a try using my …

Thanks to your installer, I spent yesterdays evening playing Motorhead again. :D I don't know when was the last time I had to put a disk in the drive, but thank god I still have one and it was totally worth it. Though the game still has some problems with W10, but it's very well playable at least. …

I'm currently compiling r4470 because the diff for the NukedOPL patch didn't apply correctly after the changes introduced in r4468 and I had to update my patch first. Download the new source in a few minutes and try again, please! UPDATE: All versions of r4470 are online!
