Re: Bruninho's Virtual Machines (Windows, Linux, Mac)

Grand Prix 4 is DirectX 8.1, so that would put any Voodoo/3Dfx implementation out of reach regardless of CPU. It's a really cool, realistic racing sim, by the way. With a CPU requirement of Pentium II 400MHz, no emulation would reach that level of performance without virtualization. With QEMU KVM …

Re: Bruninho's Virtual Machines (Windows, Linux, Mac)

I must be the biggest idiot in the world when I can't even manage to compile it in a Ubuntu 20.04 LTS VM.... EDIT: I decided to try again on macOS and I replaced the -lGLX on configure to -framework OpenGL and presto it started to compile. But produced 54 warnings and 3 errors and not a single …

Re: Bruninho's Virtual Machines (Windows, Linux, Mac)

Yeah. Best I can do with is Grand Prix 3 on Windows 98. It's running somewhat good on my iPad Pro, through UTM app and Windows 98SE VM. Also, GP3 does not need 3Dfx/Voodoo. I couldn't find a reason why on normal QEMU & my MacBook, and Win XP VM, Grand Prix 4 was giving me a black screen. I thought …

Re: Bruninho's Virtual Machines (Windows, Linux, Mac)

The problem with OpenGL, even if it is still supported on macOS, is the GL context creation. This is platform implementation specific. The QEMU MESA GL pass-through only has the codes for WGL (Windows) and GLX (Linux). Both APIs have specific binding with the underlying display managers, WIN32 and …

Re: Bruninho's Virtual Machines (Windows, Linux, Mac)

Oh damn. Yeah, apparently they deprecated it. But I thought that the code was still there? https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/379326/is-opengl-deprecated-or-removed-in-macos-catalina-10-15 I'll do some research to see if I can still get it back. If not, the plan B would be definitely an …

Re: Bruninho's Virtual Machines (Windows, Linux, Mac)

The error means that you had mixed up 32-bit and 64-bit arch headers/libraries, or compiler simply failed to locate the header file, which is glib.h. QEMU configure script uses "pkg-config --cflags" for the path to library header files. So if you run $ pkg-config --cflags glib-2.0 You should be …

Re: Bruninho's Virtual Machines (Windows, Linux, Mac)

Cool, so your pkg-config is actually working. So what exactly was the error from running QEMU configure script? If you still get the mismatch GLIB_SIZEOF_SIZE_T, then it means that you had problems on multi-arch where you try to build 32-bit QEMU while pointing at 64-bit headers or vice versa. …

Re: Bruninho's Virtual Machines (Windows, Linux, Mac)

Though I have never used macOS systems, it is obvious to me that either you don't really understand how your "homebrew" works or your pkg-config is simply broken. There is nothing magic about pkg-config, it just needs to know where to look for *.pc files. Some pkg-config ports could be really dumb, …

Re: Bruninho's Virtual Machines (Windows, Linux, Mac)

I'm still failing to compile QEMU with this patch on my macOS environment, same errors as before. I've installed all required QEMU dependencies from homebrew, and followed the instructions as seen on https://github.com/kjliew/qemu-3dfx but no matter what I do, I'm stuck here: ERROR: sizeof(size_t) …

Re: Bruninho's Virtual Machines (Windows, Linux, Mac)

VMware SVGA 3D is exclusive to VMware and it was explicitly made to differentiate VMware from the rest of the *free* solution such as QEMU and VirtualBox. Though QEMU provides the option to emulate VMware SVGA adapter, the implementation was based on reverse engineering the open-sourced X.Org DDX …

Re: Bruninho's Virtual Machines (Windows, Linux, Mac)

games like FIFA 9x I thought they every year release a remaster for the sports games. I never heard about these remasters. BTW anyone know how can I get Grand Prix 4 running on any Windows (9x to XP or even 7) on QEMU? I can't get it to run, I can install and such, but when I try to run I am …

First experience with it was with an Acer Extensa 710T laptop from my dad when I was, hmm, 12 yrs old. My dad left it with me when I went to spend a few days out in our family's vacation house with my grandparents, and he left a surprise to me; I turned on the computer and after I had logged in, I …

Re: Apple is getting off Intel CPU’s ?

in Milliways
I had the same questions. Still, better to be alert instead of ignoring the threat. From what I could understand, certain projects on github probably rely/depend on content from other repositories (I assume these are the "dependencies") to compile. It can happen that a certain repository is infected …

Re: Apple is getting off Intel CPU’s ?

in Milliways
I think they are holding back the answer because this would cause their stock market value fall, a very big hard fall. But I don't think they want to lose a such amount of customers (both Parallels and VMware in this case) so I'm sure they are working on it... when I say that is because I doubt that …

https://blogs.vmware.com/teamfusion/2020/08/a … station-16.html This is what VMware is doing currently. Not a single word about VMware on Apple Silicon Macs though. The good news is a new tier, VMware Fusion Player, for free.
