Can the pixelshader config be revised to just read the contents of the dosroot\shaders folder rather than being configured via the Dynamic options?
Re: N64 emulation - does anyone else share my dissatisfaction?
Posted on 2012-11-29, 18:00
So how far has MESS progressed in terms of emulating the N64 hardware? Is it capable of running any games with a suitably beefy hardware setup? Not sure on how beefy a machine is needed (these videos are sped up), but here are videos of it running games: ... Mario 64 almost a year ago Mario 64 …

Can the EMS config be updated to support the recently added EMM386 option?

Any chance we could emulate Cybershades 3d or other 3d glasses? Refer... http://retrowaretv.com/lazy-game-reviews-cybe … des-3d-glasses/ I think support on many current 3d outputs would just require outputting every other frame side by side (hrm, perhaps a shader could even do this).

Running 3dMark 2000 on modern hardware
Posted on 2012-10-02, 17:26
The "3DMark01 Mega Thread" got me thinking about the old 3DMark benchmarks again. Have been trying to get 3dMark2000 going on my nVidia GeForce 580, but am currently unable to. It starts up, initializes the display, but then drops out with an error... "3dMark requires a 3D-accelerator with 4MB or …

I've had this same issue as well, but with the installer. The DOS install, similar to the issue with the game listed by Joeyxp2, just goes to a black screen. I ended up having to find a rip online to be able to play. The game itself, at least in the rip version I found, played fine.

Thanks for the info. Strangely it works amazingly well if I use DosBox and DosBoxer front end (Under MAC OSX). I can run it at 24bit full screen video. Sound is not choppy. I will try this patch on my normal dosbox version to see the differences. Thanks, Rob Ah, yeah, Mac OS X version of DOSBox may …

Yes, at least 16b color works fine for me, though I'm using the updated 2.42 beta version of 11th Hour... "This new beta player for The 11th Hour improves performance on lower-end machines. Because it is still beta, it is currently not supported by Virgin or Trilobyte; however, we have made this …

Re: Essential feature: Text Copy and Paste
Posted on 2012-09-18, 02:15
Every "DOS box" that has been implemented since Windows 3.0 and OS/2 has had the ability to copy data out of the window (and also to scroll back). I use these features regularly. Not having them makes DOSBox difficult to use. Were the code not GPLed, I would go in and hack it myself, but as a …
Re: Reason Not to Run Other Emulators at the Same Time
Posted on 2012-09-04, 21:52
It's a good topic to remind people of, though it's not just emulators. For instance, I normally run Distributed.net on my machine. It uses unused CPU cycles to calculate optimal golomb rulers, and is tagged as a low priority process so windows should always give up CPU to other processes if they …

Note 4: Some users have reported database-related issues, where it would seem that DBGL did not save new profiles. The most likely cause for this issue is that DBGL lacks the rights to save its database files. In that case, check if you're running DBGL from a folder below the "C:\Program Files" or …
Re: DOSBox Game Launcher (DOSBox Frontend)
Posted on 2012-08-19, 15:00
Good point, Kolano. The solution to this issue is to not launch DBGL from the default "Program Files" or "Program Files (x86)" folders is correct. I might have to look into that sometime to make it more flexible, but without loosing the portability of course. You may also want to provide a note …

Personally, I've always been of the opinion I want my CPU working. So constant 100% usage for Distributed.net's OGR project has been keeping mine busy for years (and helps save on heating bills in winter).

So quick question on the "SPEEDLOCK". I'm still seeing things run too fast post the patch. Does something need to be done to enable it (i.e. a command line option, or similar)? I don't see a related option in the game menu.
