It may help to post the memsize given it is one of many unreported changes to the configuration file (OP).

Jmarsh is a primary source of information on emulation, particularly in the cpu portion of DOSBox. In my experience, win95 games have eventually shown the instabilities that he has documented or described, including in the sound emulation, but also in the fpu and paging systems. Potential problems …

It is not a likely cause, but I would verify the system time is reset on start, such as by a system restart. It is also worthwhile to test that it is assigned to a single cpu only. Another option is to test other wrappers for its graphics api.

Mame version 0.30 reportedly has support for a 320x200 video mode in some cases, although there may be some dependence on the host hardware configuration, and it is better optimized for 486 class machines than subsequent versions. There is also a use of sound samples in some cases that were later …

Is voxel support a possibility in the Tartar port? It seems to work on a related and early version of Eternity in DOS, but it requires a mid-level Pentium or better (tested with attached code that is unsupported/not finished). The FPS drops during gameplay. Thank you for making the Tartar port …
Console menu in batch file format
Posted on 2023-09-26, 20:48
Attached is an archive with a batch file for showing a console menu in DOSBox. This example menu can be further adapted for starting other games and specifying emulator options. It also has an example for running STRINGS.COM (DOS command line utility to ask for user input). This utility may be …

Attached is code to implement a gamma level modifier for cases where the input color depth is 8 bpp. It was only tested against 32-bit color output and in VGA, but may work in other cases. It is for testing only and based on the assumption that the modified red/green/blue values are 6-bit values, …

The atari 2600 emulator, stella, has an older version for DOS. It is v1.3 (st13.zip): https://github.com/stella-emu/stella/releases … tag/release-1.3 It has higher cpu requirements than the fastest emulators as listed in this thread.

It is not safe to use disk utilities (such as scandisk or defrag) on the image in DOSBox emulation: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?p=117084#p117084 I would delete the disk image copy which was modified by any disk utility. It is also a good practice to keep a backup copy of the Tower disk …

Thank you for the excellent recommendations. I think the nice advantage of FS4 and FS5 is that the propeller aircraft can be controlled with a keyboard. The jet aircraft in FS5 seem a bit more difficult to handle with the keyboard only. The use of flat textures also holds up better.

That is wonderful news! :) I am very glad that you have the sim working since it is one of a kind. I believe it also allows a connection to one fs5.1 client via the serial emulation, although it may not be an essential feature. I recall the sim has a readme about it and the use of share.exe to …

I would make a copy of the Tower disk image as a backup. Then I would use the copy and imgmount it like done previously, but this time allow access to the Windows directory for W31 where the sound works (DOSBox would start in a local directory, along with a subdirectory for Windows). It should be …

Glad to help. :) It is possible to transfer the files by OSFMount, given it is compatible with the host OS. I believe there is another software that has the transfer function, too. The other way is to start DOSBox by the mount command on a local directory with the sb2 files, along with mounting the …
