Re: DOSBox ECE (for Windows & Linux)

Hi. I like the idea of a "pixel perfect" DOSBox build but when I select that option in DOSBox ECE there are small black bars at the top and bottom of my 43" 1920X1080 display. I don't mind the letterboxing on the sides but prefer not to lose any of that nice 1080p screen real estate if I can help …

Re: DOSBox ECE (for Windows & Linux)

The problem is that nothing in Dosbox is multithreaded (except for mt32/fluidsynth if compiled to do so), and the 3D software emulator can not take advantage of multithreaded rendering. If you want higher frame rate, use one of the hardware accelerated options. Now in THEORY yes, the software …

Re: DOSBox ECE (for Windows & Linux)

What is the expected performance of software 3DFX emulation in DOSBox ECE (latest release r4294)? I only ask as I'm seeing *really* choppy performance in Carmaggedon and Elder Scrolls: Redguard. However, despite the choppy performance, dosbox.exe never maxes out a single thread (25%) on my 4 core i5 …

Re: DOSBox ECE (for Windows & Linux)

A bit off topic, but I am curious as to why are you using 3.11 to play BaK? It is a DOS game. The CD included a Windows installer, but the game is still a DOS game. I actually wasn't using Windows 3.11 to play BaK. I was using Windows 3.11 to play the audio CD tracks from BaK ;) just to verify that …

Re: DOSBox ECE (for Windows & Linux)

Thanks krcroft. Summed up much more eloquently and expertly than me. After reading through what you said and thinking about my previous experience when the first PCE CD rips of Castlevania: Rondo of Blood came out as bin/mp3, these were the exact same issues. It's something to do with the fact that …

Re: DOSBox ECE (for Windows & Linux)

I've narrowed this problem down to the patch ---> AUDIO Patch supporting FLAC, Opus, and MP3 audio tracks : https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=62203 Betrayal At Krondor will not play the CD Audio when the patch is in use. I'm thinking that this has to be something with the krondor.exe not …

Re: DOSBox ECE (for Windows & Linux)

Hori Fighting Stick Mini is natively compatibile with PS3/PS4/PC (seen as a custom XBox 360 controller). Correct me if I'm wrong but Sony DualShock3 is not supported by Windows at default and requires some hacks (you already use MotionInJoy for example). I'm not surprised Sony's has issues with …

Re: DOSBox ECE (for Windows & Linux)

See here if helps: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=70136 I looked at what you tried in that thread and it did not change anything for me. The DOSBox mapper itself (CTRL+F1) just doesn't pick up on the Y rotation axis of my gamepad. I can't map the axis to a button, hat, axis so I'm …

Re: DOSBox ECE (for Windows & Linux)

I searched Vogons and I saw this mentioned but I didn't see a solution. I'm currently using a Sony DualShock3 with MotionInJoy drivers with Better DS3 to manage it for my input in DOSBox ECE. It's worked great for most things, but it seems like DOSBox can't see all the axes and I was wondering if …

Re: DOSBox ECE (for Windows & Linux)

i've done it but it doesn't work, dosbox keeps creating a conf in appdata and doesn't use the one in the folder... This is what the DBGL ( http://members.quicknet.nl/blankendaalr/dbgl/ ) frontend passes as the comand line for launching a game for my setup: C:\Emulators\DBGL\DOSBox\DOSBox.exe -conf …

Re: DOSBox ECE (for Windows & Linux)

Which output are you using? openglpp I got it working in PCEm with less screen tearing than full screen DOSBox though (or much less noticeable to me at least), so I'll likely keep using that emulator for this specific game. On my AMD Radeon Fury X, I notice that forcing vsync within the DOSBox …

Re: DOSBOX ECE r4096 Windows 3.11 Boot Crash

Windows 3.11 works for me in current source. Only 0.74 and vanilla SVN builds of DOSBox are supported here. The maintainer of the ECE build also offers a build of vanilla SVN, and I suggest you use that to install and run Windows 3. FYI, r4096 was around the time that the ECE build added more video …

DOSBOX ECE r4096 Windows 3.11 Boot Crash

Ever since SVN entry r4096, my Windows 3.11 installation crashes at boot in DOSBox ECE. The changelog for r4096 states: 2018-05-03 16:08 ripsaw8080 * [r4096] src/dos/dos_files.cpp: Support rarely used FCB feature: open file with search mask. Fixes Buckaroo Banzai. I'm unsure why this change causes …
