** EXPECT BUGS** and **USE AT OWN RISK** apply here, it has only tested in DOSBox. I still don't have a proper name, I just named it CGA.COM because it was short ;) This is the first version of the emulator pack with menu, simple navigation and an INI file to edit. I need help making the INI sane, …

Thank you for reporting that you found a solution here. We get a lot of drive-by questions without any feedback. So I will add the following to this: 1. Replace or Patch SNDDRIVERS\DSB_PRO.DRV, that way SETUP.EXE will copy your patched file to DIGI.DRV (so you need to run setup once more after …

Wow, I haven't looked at this for ages. Mainly because I converted what I needed 🤣 I'll note the error, and take a look at it when I can. Thanks for the report.

Well I sort of have a basic framework for loading all those emulators :D Its just a simple way to find out what the best emulator for each game is. The goal: a list of every CGA game playable on HERCULES This is what the tool looks like now: hercmenu.gif I'm making progress, but its going to take a …

Afaict this is a loading screen, so you have something to look at while the game loads (from floppy). Nowadays everything is so fast that is just flashes by. I don't think there is a menu

To be fair I didn't mention the version of LZEXE. I know it was just an observation ;) Hi, I have just read about this, actually. But since you mentioned "doing it right"... I actually ended up reading posts in another forum where they attempt to recreate the original .EXE files, and they …

Such a thing should work in case the bootstrap code does not depend on loading into a fixed memory area like 0000:7c00 (probably not very likely), or in cases with well-configured DOS so that 0000:7c00 and up is available for use. It follows this route, the first being the one you pointed out. 0000 …

First things first: 'I think it does not really matter' I enjoy the hell out of it :) But if you want to go down that road, you might as well do it right. It is still 42k too big in its unpacked form and in order to mimic the original release well: search for the 'COMPAQ' string search for 0x5 0x00 …

You could compress the executables with LZEXE like id Software did and rename "AdLib/Sound Blaster" to "General MIDI" on the music submenu in the sound settings. That's easier said then done. The symbols/overlay must be stripped first and the header must be patched to reflect the new size., then …
