What's funny is Wine is more compatible.

Munt is a separate process from DOSBox so it will be faster on systems with at least two CPUs/cores.
Re: Set cycles to specific xt/at/386/486/586 speed.

The set5.diff is a patch that has to be applied to the source and then the source compiled for it to function. You lose the on the fly MHz adjusting, but you can make static setting batch files. Look at the xt/at/386/486/586 .bat files, and multiply cpucycles by dosboxcycles. @echo off set cpu=386 …

The following reads more caustic than intended but keeping things short. Type and range checking are very easy to do, DOSBox already does both when reading values from the conf file. There are INI parsers as well, INI being so simple, it's a not notable issue. Doesn't need something like XSLT to …

No, it's a fad, it's not the standard, when most things use horrible xml, then it could be tragically called the standard. It doesn't matter that mame did it.

Your perception doesn't match reality. No justification to move to ugly cluttered harder to read mess that is xml. Only if the objective were to flood the message board with newbs needing perpetual instruction to change anything.

As good as it gets for DOSBox: Set cycles to specific xt/at/386/486/586 speed.

"playback very unreliable" is too vague. "certain sound won't come out" sounds like emulation inaccuracy. Limited polyphony is an attribute of the sound blaster which DOSBox emulates. "rest or pauses" Change the cycles and cpu type. Read the documentation. DOSBox uses the host MIDI device for output …
Re: Windows on 1920x1080 120hz TV/monitor
Posted on 2009-04-13, 17:25
There aren't any real 120 Hz TVs. They're all marketing "120 Hz," which is what they're calling their gimmick of inserting a black frame between 60 Hz or interpolating, and "240 Hz" TVs are what they are calling interpolating three times between each real frame. There are real 120 Hz monitors though …

Not pointless, and the reason is the topic of this thread, "and such," like setting files.

Re: P55c at Overclocked to 300mhz?

Ugh. Newer cards offload Tnl from the CPU and anti-aliasing is a function of video card memory bandwidth, which newer cards also have more of, aka newer card > than 5500 on a ss7 system.
Re: P55c at Overclocked to 300mhz?
Posted on 2009-03-29, 22:00
Searches on ss7 chipsets and boards is telling me I'm mistaken on 4x agp on ss7. Though maxing out the video cards capability is desirable, the point being made is about minimizing cpu load. Though underutilized, a newer card will offload more. Between a v5500 and 9800, I'd be conflicted, whether to …
