Received the AsRock 775i65g r3.0. Works wonderfully in the mATX case. Dropped an E6700 in it and it works great. I applied Win98 USP3, and despite there being 2GB installed in the machine, Windows only shows ~875MB. *shrug* I also received a HT845ISA/1 board. Despite being advertised as mATX, the …

Check this Readme.

This is a most excellent guide! I just got one of these working under Windows. Legacy and wavetable blocks both work wonderfully. I'm curious, though. The pinout of the PC/PCI header is known, but is there anywhere on the motherboard that we can tap into these signals? I'm assuming that these …

I looked for a micro-ATX 875P motherboard to play around with. That is a very limiting restriction, and it turns out that they end up typically being industrial boards. But I found a "P4CMX-01" motherboard. Information for this thing is rather scarce aside from the Corvalent source themselves, but …

By then pics and looking the southbridge size, this motherboard doesn't have the ICH5, rather the server variant of it (ICH5R though) which is the Intel 6300ESB which provides PCI-X slots as well. The 6300ESB despite begin designed for Xeon chipsets, it can be paried theorically with any chipset …

Hey folks. I realize this is a rather old topic, but the problem with white textures is due to the format not being compatible with newer graphics cards. That's why with older graphics cards you're able to see them. *Some* textures are still visible, though, so there must be some format we can use …

I know a lot of time has passed, but I thought I'd provide a bit of information on progress. So far, everything's been going quite smoothly. I wrote an archiver for manipulating the data files in the game. It also works on the N64 version (and actually, the data is more accessible there! I may use …

I couldn't get that utility to work. "OutputDebug" didn't show up in the list. So I wrote a patch instead. There's more than just the hex replacement mentioned above (I also had to remove the PUSH statements for the debug strings which is a bit less straightforward) but it's getting there. Would be …

This may be an old topic but it's certainly a recent interest of mine :) I've been trying to find ways to modify the game's executable and game files to get a fully playable version. So far, I've been able to get the game working on XP with a simple hex-replace hack: 1) Convert all instances of this …

Simply have the GUS enabled. I think the program should auto-detect your GUS settings. There is no Setup utility from what I understand. If you still don't get anything, make sure the GUS is enabled in your DosBox configuration file.
Re: Joystick deadzones?

Yeah, I'm on Windows. However, the driver included with Windows doesn't have this feature. I have no special software that came with my gamepad, either.
Joystick deadzones?
Posted on 2007-10-23, 03:41
I have a USB gamepad. I like to use it with DosBOX, especially when playing the arcade-style shooters or platformers. However, not all programs allow you to calibrate your joystick (Raptor by Apogee, for example.) My joystick's analog stick doesn't quite reach the outer boundaries of the box, which …
Re: Zone 66
Posted on 2007-10-23, 03:29
Zone 66 is a very, very picky game. It must be run with nothing else in memory. Not even a memory manager or EMS/XMS, none of that. Make sure the settings match what's in your DosBox config. I was able to run the game with sound using GUS support and music. In fact, the GUS is the best way to listen …
Master of Magic's MIDI driver
Posted on 2007-04-23, 15:40
This driver takes a long, long, long time to initialize when playing the game. But's also the only driver that seems to play the music fully without overlapping channels (the adlib one works alright, but can't play all the sounds at once.) Is there any way to fix this? MIDI drivers don't take nearly …

The reason I wanted to use DosBox is so that I could try to link up with the DOS machines on our network that we host games on occasionally. (does this work? I haven't tried yet, just curious) I solved the problem, and it didn't have anything to do with the patches (that's a whole different problem …
