Re: Scrolling in WFW3.11?!

in Windows
Yeah this might be a dead-end until win 3.1 source leaks like XP and some fans decide to add this functionality. What I found is: Turns out I was wrong, The Windows 3.1 SDK does in fact define WM_MBUTTONDOWN and WM_MBUTTONUP. No built-in applications use it, and very few other applications do …

Re: About Roland Virtual Sound Canvas 3

sfz is basically a new version of sf2, just a flat filesystem instead of a packed riff archive. Its one of the reasons I like it, because all you need to make an sfz is a pile of wave files and a text editor. LN This is not exactly the case. I think the biggest difference is SF2 was designed with …

Re: Roland UM-ONE / MIDI Player

I understand the setup and I have that part done. What I am asking is how once I have the game open, how do I set the game to use the MIDI Player and do I need to do anything on the MIDI PLayer (like click Play) to get it working on the game. Yes, Phil does an amazing job at showing setup and …

Re: Roland UM-ONE / MIDI Player

This is my first time using the MIDI Player (Falcosoft MIDI Player) and Roland UM-ONE MIDI Device with my retro 486 PC. I have the MIDI Player setup and the UM-ONE Device installed. I also have the MT-32 / Yamaha / etc various soundfont files. I have the device hooked up to my 486 's Soundblaster. …

Related issue: How are people recording Windows audio nowadays? In the XP era you would use the Stereo Mix/"What U Hear" recording device as an audio input. This has been entirely removed from modern Windows versions though. I normally just launch one of my retro machines when I want to do this, …

Re: Heads Up: Roland Sound Canvas VA VSTi Plugin!

Hey all, I am just getting my feet wet with this stuff. I have the FSMP installed and running. What do I need to do to get the Roland SC VA (which I also have) interface to come up? Not sure where to load it in the FSMP. Also, I have the Roland UM-ONE device, do I still need loopMidi along with …

Re: Dude, where's my frame buffer?

OK it's not looking good. I tried forcing that address with the 'mtrrlfbe' utility (which I see you're involved with Falcosoft) and it's accepted, but trying to run something in a VESA mode reboots the machine. vesainfo /t 101 - this works without Univbe installed, but reboots the machine with it …

Re: Dude, where's my frame buffer?

64MB 🐱‍🏍 Maybe that's too much system RAM? I'm off to bed now but tomorrow I'll take 32 out and see if that helps. No, as Gryzb has said 64MB RAM should not cause LFB related problems since the LFB address of 0xE0000000 is rather high (3.5 GB). What happens if you force this address as parameter to …

Re: Dude, where's my frame buffer?

Great responses thanks guys! @Grzyb HWINFO didn't include that info that I could see but it's a handy app. @Falcosoft that's exactly what I was after thanks. From what I can see my card is VESA 2.0 compliant out of the box but VESAINFO still says LFB is not supported. UniVBE fixes that right up as …

Re: Dude, where's my frame buffer?

Hi! I might be about to expose my ignorance here but I use a little app called 6x86opt to optimise my CPU Cyrix MII and with a Matrox Millennium I was able to use the -linbuf option to set up the LFB. This worked - the app found the address of my frame buffer and I got a couple of extra points in …

Re: NE2000 connection over wifi?

It's not impossible to use wifi card with (win)pcap and thus with NE2000 emulation of DosBox. As DosFreak has written this problem is entirely driver related. I have and old 802.11g SMCWPCI-G Wifi network card that works perfectly in DosBox with the generic Atheros driver but not with its specific …
