So it accesses the floppy drive when it’s disabled in device manager? This is indeed strange.

I just looked at dosbox-mb6.tar.gz from https://archive.org/download/DOSBox-Megabuild, which is a checkout of the plain dosbox trunk at r3661 and allows comfortable diffing. The changes you’re interested in will be mostly or completely confined to src/hardware/dbopl.*

I believe this place is no worse than any other to ask: what exactly does the term "pixel perfect" actually mean? Square pixels that aren't blurry? or something else? Every source pixel maps to the same integral number of destination pixels and the aspect ratio is preserved. For square pixels as in …

The thing about the string comparisons seems to be correct. morphinejh, I looked at your repo and noticed that there are a few header files that seem out of place and I don’t know where they are coming from (include/sdk2_*).

This seems to be a DOSBox-X issue. I tried it on Linux aarch64, and it behaves just as you described. Vanilla DOSBox works.

The API documentation for Win16 is actually extremely easy to find – it’s all contained in win31wh.hlp. The problem is that this API does not include any socket functionality, as the networking stuff was usually provided by third parties. The winsock API is mostly the same as it is today, though, …
Re: Latched EGA + Question about how dosbox does memory mapped I/O
Posted on 2022-05-10, 11:59
Yes, but why would you care? The copying does not happen by going through AL. In fact, what goes into/out of AL does not matter at all. What matters is that the movs trigger reads and writes at the relevant addresses. One byte read copies one byte from each of the four planes into its latch, while …
Re: Latched EGA + Question about how dosbox does memory mapped I/O

You are doing 8 byte loads/stores so of course it would copy 8 bytes (in each plane, if the graphics registers are set up like intended). This amounts to 64 pixels.

Windows XP plain -> SP3 is not a problem. I’m not so sure about 98 -> 98 SE. This one, I personally would install from the 98SE installer. Put everything onto one disk. Splitting it up onto multiple disks just makes it messier. I have a Pentium 4 board with the normal two IDE and two additional SATA …

The tiles are even …

The question is just wrong. What you probably want is to put "C:" on the next line.

No wait, I can reproduce it, using edit.com, like you did. The other editor that I used earlier (IBM’s E) had no problem writing the file. Likely has something to do with SHARE.EXE emulation.
