Re: MT-32 cant get any sound some games

Might be a silly question... are you running SoftMPU? You'll need that for many games on UART (non-intelligent) MPU-401's, which is what you have in those cards.

Yeah, they do exist. Saitek X6-33M for example… s-l1000.jpg Can confirm the Saitek X6-33M to be DOS compatible out of the box. As expected, the buttons and axis are distributed through player1 and player2. (2 axis and 4 buttons each.) I played through Tie Fighter with X6-33M this year. After trying …

Not sure if this will be useful, but there is a rev2 manual linked here: http://www.win3x.org/uh19/motherboard/show/354 (I'm aware of course that manual revision =/= motherboard revision) More results: http://www.win3x.org/uh19/motherboard/result/?name=486EI

Really neat build, excellent component selection and great use of various utils to cater to various eras. This build pretty well covers everything that I need 3 different machines to do 😁

Just wanted to say a huge thanks for your work mbbrutman. I entered the world of retro networking for the first time this week. You've made it obscenely simple to get things going, and I don't think I'll run a non-networked DOS machine again. The FTP server in particular has changed everything.
How do your organise your DIGITAL game storage?

Scenario: You have a couple of hundred games spanning 1990-2000, stored on a modern computer or server. You transfer these across to period hardware to play them, and of course you have several different machines for this purpose. How do you sort and file them? What does your directory structure …

Roger Roger. When I get around to this, I'll be curious to test with both channel configs on the MT-32.

Re: GM games that sound better on MT-32

I think some games composed for GM (presumably an SC-55) tend to sound better on an MT-32. Two games that come to mind, are Duke Nukem 3D and Quest for Glory IV . What I mean by this, is selecting GM in the games setup, and then running it with an MT-32. If you have both devices, try this out and …

Re: Real hardware DOS gaming console for HDMI displays

70hz HDMI with VRR is definitely uncharted territory for retro gaming. HDMI is an open spec so you could implement your own digital scaler/converter with support for variable refresh rate, but you might very well be the first to do it. The only devices I know of that support the feature are made by …
