Re: scratchy sound in Crusader No Remorse

Without a recording of what you're hearing I can't be 100% sure, but I think it always was a little hissy. This will be even more noticeable if you've heard the music played through a modern player that interpolates the output. That being said, if it's any more than a little hissiness, there might …
Re: Resident Evil 3 question

Yeah, it's pretty annoying, and AFAIK the Sourcenext version is exactly the same. It annoys me so much that I have trouble playing through much of the PC version. In the PS1 version it was at least somewhat masked by the very low resolution. It's weird that they fixed this for RE 1 and 2, yet 3 got …

If you want to use it, use it. It's up to you really. I think the main issue is that you're not going to get much support if you run into trouble with it. It's essentially a collection of different patches (some of which, like the DOSBox-X additions, are very out of date) possibly modified and …

Re: Hardware T&L with DX7 on Windows 10 ?

I assume it is emulated in a way, but emulated through drivers and shader hardware. I doubt there would be much point in keeping fixed function DX7 style T&L units around in modern hardware if their functionality can be simulated with shader units. That being said, I have no concrete info to back …

Re: dgVoodoo 2 for DirectX 11

Just a couple of comments about Resident Evil 2 (the older port). I have the UK version so can't directly use your fixed executables, but I compared the US 1.4 exe to your patch to figure out what needed changing in the UK executable. This works, the game starts with dgVoodoo (it doesn't work …
Re: MSYS2 built 32-bit Windows build crashes on exit if screenshot support is enabled....
Posted on 2018-10-22, 16:36
Okay, I see what's going on now, though not why: If the exe is compiled with libGCC statically linked, it seems that libPNG must be statically linked too. The problem goes away when libGCC is dynamically linked. AFAIK this doesn't happen with builds made with my old MinGW environment,
Re: MSYS2 built 32-bit Windows build crashes on exit if screenshot support is enabled....
Posted on 2018-10-22, 16:12
I did a clean install of MSYS2 and the MinGW toolchain once the problem happened on my existing install. As for different switches, I was using "./configure --enable-core-inline LDFLAGS="-static-libgcc -static-libstdc++ -s" LIBS="-lvorbisfile -lvorbis -logg"", which works fine as long as libPNG is …

What should be happening and what I'm experiencing are two different things. No errors are thrown during configuration or compilation, and the builds produced are fully functional. The only problem I'm experiencing is the silent crash when closing the Window, rather than typing "exit", if libPNG is …

Seem to have it working now. Cleaned out all traces of libpng, downloaded the source of the latest version rather than installing with Pacman, configured that with the --disable-shared flag as instructed in the MinGW guide, rebuilt Dosbox, and it works fine now. Funny thing is that I could have …
Re: MSYS2 built 32-bit Windows build crashes on exit if screenshot support is enabled....

Thanks for the advice. Yeah, it's built with mingw-w64-i686. FWIW, it crashes silently and was only really noticeable through event viewer and the slight pause before the Window closed. 64-bit builds don't have this issue, but aren't really usable for my purposes with the dynarec core being broken …
MSYS2 built 32-bit Windows build crashes on exit if screenshot support is enabled....
Posted on 2018-10-19, 14:42
This is a bit strange. I decided to unify my build environment by building with MSYS2, which I use for other things, rather than the older MinGW environment. I've ran into a problem however: the executable that's produced works just fine, including screenshots and video capture, until I close Dosbox …

Sorry for the slow reply. If you're not running Nvidia hardware, I don't know how to do this but I assume the AMD or Intel control panels can do similar things. If you're not running Windows, I really don't know how to do this. In order to set the refresh rate, I create a custom resolution with that …

Re: Mortal Kombat Trilogy hints and observations

My advice would be to use dgVoodoo 2 for the Windows version. The game should then run at 320x240 and is scaled up, filtering the image. That only works in fullscreen mode though.
