@Guest above: You are quite misleading. I never said/thought about wanting any advantage over newbies or bashed newbies. I think that this forum enables to find posts of one user, so you can check mine and then talk ... What I meant was this: I do not think this important. I just do not like some …
Re: A glide wrapper for DOS programs
Posted on 2004-04-24, 09:00
Just one question: why is not there yet a speciall forum here on VOGONs for Dege's Glide wrapper? Is it because of not wanting to compete with GliDOS? Or why else? This thread is getting a bit too long ... Mirek

>"Load error: no DPMI - Get csdpmi*b.zip" (I've done that, > it changed nothing). ??? CWSDPMI works with DOSBOX. And certainly you should not get this message when you have DPMI installed (even if it would not work). Did you start it? Or just downloaded file and let it lie around?!? Mirek

My personal reason for Windows is that I would like to be able to run in DOSBOX Wizardry Gold (in VERY DISTANT future - it is Windows 3.1, 256 colors, using Win32s extension - …

In the next version there will be: Windows 3.0 real & standard mode Windows 3.1 standard mode But do not expect 100% functionality (e.g. MS Office applications do not work). Mirek

The DOSBOX 0.61 was released on "Tuesday, February 3rd, 2004" (according to DOSBOX page). The repair was at some time around "2004-3-07" (I guess according to the messages above, I did not check CVS). In other words - it logically cannot be in 0.61. Wait for 0.62 or use the CVS build (if you read …

U8shapes.flx has 15,374,616 bytes. I think that the directory does not matter. I have it in C:\U8, but I think I used it before in different directory as well. The directory is only important for the installer (when I configured sound I had to configure destination directory to correct c:\u8 as well …

Re: Ultima 8 problem/question

Yes, I run it using DOSBOX (CVS from 12.April) under Windows XP SP 1, using Sound Blaster Pro and General MIDI MPU-401 (actually when MPU-401 is available in games it is quicker then Soundblaster - it is not emulated, just forwarded to Windows - so I prefer it). It seems ok to me. I did not have any …

1. I did not have any problems with Ultima 8, I will check it at home... 2. CWSDPMI will be useless for Ultima 8 (it supports only 32 bit DPMI, not 16 bit DPMI which Ultima 8 uses - but the game should run fine without any DPMI). 3. CON is DOS console (keyboard/display), installer probably tries to …
Re: Duke 3D + System Shock
Posted on 2004-04-14, 19:44
There are both VGA and SVGA versions of System Shock. From what I have heard, the floppy version is just VGA, CD version contains both VGA and SVGA. I think VGA version should be well playable in DOSBOX on Athlon Xp 1800+ . SVGA probably not (SVGA is slow in DOSBOX) - at least this is what I have …
