Hey, any chance for a diff file that would cleanly apply to SVN r4019?

Pssst .... r4019 is out: https://sourceforge.net/p/dosbox/code-0/HEAD/tree/ Disney Sound Source supposedly is fixed.
Re: Disney Source borked in latest Dosbox SVN?

aside from possible improvements due to timing related rewrites, this sounds like another victim of the mixer rewrite edit: found a problem and got a fix. However, will need to do some more tests Awesome! I opened a bug report on it after posting: https://sourceforge.net/p/dosbox/bugs/457/ EDIT: …
Disney Source borked in latest Dosbox SVN?
Posted on 2017-05-14, 23:11
The last DOSBox SVN I tried where Disney Sound Source was working correctly was SVN 4000. In every build since then where I've tried the Disney Sound Source output is garbled and distorted. Has anyone else noticed this?

Hey, thanks! I'll try it out when I get the chance. EDIT: Yep, it works for me.
Re: Is there any point in using normal 2x or normal 3x scaler with openglnb?

I just wanted to share a post I found on the Steam forums which helped to further my understanding of what's going on here. I know that a lot of this has already been said, but sometimes things said another way can also be helpful: Thanks for the link, Mark (this issue has been bugging me). And …

Thanks for the very comprehensible breakdown. That makes sense. Seeing as how I recently upgraded to a 2560x1440 monitor, I guess I should be prepared for even more artifacts. Oh well. Like you said it doesn't seem that noticeable to me. Something I'm still a little unclear on is whether or not I …

Well at that resolution, any 320 x 200 game, run it at 1600 x 1200 1:1 pixel mapped and you'll have a perfect image. This is true for 4:3 games. Actually, the "best" modern monitor resolution for running old DOS games is probably 1920x1200. For older games that may have used square pixels, you can …

So, as with a lot of options running DOSBox games, this comes down to personal preference and what your priority is. Most VGA DOS games ran at 320x200. If you multiply that by four, you end up with 1280x800. If you set DOSBox to run the game in at 1280x960 window using openglnb then you're going to …
Re: Is there a comprehensive list of games with additional sounds on the CM-32L?
Posted on 2017-02-18, 17:05
I've heard that, compared to the MT-32, there are some games that have sound effects only heard on the CM-32L. I was wondering if there is a list somewhere of these games? Furthermore, what's the popular opinion as to MT-32 vs CM-32L as it relates to any given game, or is it really a per-game basis …
Re: Munt 2.0.0 released

Hi sergm - I posted in MT-32 about this but thought I'd post here as well since it seems relevant. Using DOSBox SVN r4006 ECE build, I get what seems to be some kind of distortion when using MT-32. A comparison between vanilla DOSBox/external MUNT and r4006 ECE build can be seen here . The first …
Re: The ultimate Ultima 7 machine

I just tried the Ultima VII Windows 9x patch on my Gateway Pentium III 600E machine. The resulting speed seemed equivalent to a 486DX2/66. The scrolling, however, was vastly improved over my real 486DX2/66. Graphics card was a Voodoo 3 300 PCI, sound card was a Sound Blaster 16 PnP. Maybe I will …

After playing around with D-Fend Reloaded and ScummVM a little more I can see how some updates would be nice. It's a little disconcerting that the developer of this program hasn't visited this site for nearly a year now... Yeah, I've just been running my SCUMMVM games using the SCUMMVM interface …

Interesting. This is my driver selection: http://i.imgur.com/DyWOHRU.png As far as I remember, the MTBLAST.DRV file doesn't get installed with Space Quest III so I'm wondering if it actually works properly with that game, allowing both MT-32 music and digital sound effects.

ScummVM 1.9.0.2 has Munt 1.5.0 integrated into it. All the ScummVM builds have Munt now. The latest daily builds include Munt 2.0.1, but Munt 1.5.0 was pretty good. I haven't done a side-by-side comparison to see if the games I play are noticably better in Munt 2.0.1; I just wanted to use the …

So, when you use OpenGL scaling it upscales the image using a nearest-neighbor algorithm, so you get a nice, crisp version of the original image versus what happens when an image is upscaled using a bilinear algorithm, where it ends up looking like you're viewing it through a glass of water; all …

ScummVM support is pretty well borked at this point. Nearest-neighbor scaling has been moved to the render_mode ini config option and there's no way at all to get it to work properly in D-Fend Reloaded v1.4.4. You can use OpenGL scaling by adding the option to the Filters but it upscales using …
