Very cool! I wish you best of luck! Any chance of seeing it for Symbian S60 3rd too?
Re: Inspired to make a clone of DOS/Windows
Posted on 2008-04-24, 09:07
Not to be rude or anything, but is this anything but an idea at the moment? Have you done any work on it? Spent any deeper thoughts regarding it? Any planning? I'm not sure you grasp the complexities behind this idea of yours. It would take many years to finalise. I also don't get why you don't want …

Should work by using OpenGL as output, shouldn't it?
Re: Invert Left/Right Audio Channels Stereo Sound?

Looks good ripsaw8080, and good luck with it 😀 Hopefully the patch will eventually be integrated with the DOSBox CVS as it's needed to get the sound correctly in some games. A conf setting for this would be wonderful.

If you do have the CD version of the game, then download the patch. It fixes several issues with Discworld, and improve the sound system too.

I never had that problem with System Shock. It saves the settings for me. The CD version I have is vF1.6C, and I have heard of no other. Ingame settings are stored in the savegame files, and all of them work EXCEPT the "stereo reversed" setting, it always resets to "stereo normal" when you restart …

It seems, that the "swapped-channels-problem" occures in all games which are using Miles-Sound-System. I was playing Gene-Wars today and there were swapped channels. I'm more inclined to belive it's how Bullfrog did things. I just tried GeneWars too, and it's indeed swapped. So Magic Carpet 1 & 2 …
Re: Getting Battlespire to run
Posted on 2008-03-03, 03:09
First it´s painfully slow. If it's slow, it's because your CPU is too slow. Not because of the warning message. I've played thru the whole game despite of the warning message. Ever since DOSBox started to support 16bit VESA resolutions I never had any problems running Battlespire. Rip the CD to bin …

I get the "Warning: 31M RAM+Swap detected" error too, but there's no way to avoid it as far as I know. I've tried all sorts of things, althought that was with 0.70 and not 0.72. I've made posts about it here before too, such as here . But the game worked fine for me anyway. With MAX cycles on the …

The only thing you need to change in the config file is to give DOSBox 63mb of RAM with memsize=63 (which you already have). Then rip the CD to bin/cue (so you get the music) and mount it with the IMGMOUNT command. The install the game as normal, install the patch, and play.

Start the game by typing f2b -2 The game got another issue with DOSBox too. The stereo sound is reversed, so for the best gaming experience you have to play in mono. Do this by picking the regular Soundblaster as output device in the game options. Not Soundblaster Pro or 16.
Re: Looking for 'verysimple' 286 cpu core by Boris Letocha
Posted on 2008-02-17, 08:48
Considering this is anything but a 286 class game this is not surprising given the full 256 color VGA and 3d graphics processing needed for first person travel view. This is also slow on a 386 (a 486 80MHz works best for this game, at the least) This is not "just sad". You are intentionally …

If you want to play the Monkey Island games, then I suggest you use ScummVM instead of DOSBox.

Every found topic with CD issue stops after "make daggerfall.exe z.cfg trick". It is, of course, allows to play the game - but it seems, that no one was able to run game as intended! The trick allows me to play the game as intended, and it's been allowing me to play the game since DOSBox 0.65 and I …

Re: DosBox on Symbian (s60)

What's the possibility of porting DosBox to the s60 3rd Ed platform? What hurdles exist? Is it just that developers aren't familiar with the Symbian platform? It's very possible to do a port, so the possibility is very good. The only hurdle is that no good programmer seem to have any interest in …
