I just loaded up Wing Commander the first one and after I started a game it asked me for some info from the game docs in order to let me play. I just stared at if for a while in total dumb disbelief. Boy its been a while since I had that happen :shocked: I guess it's a good thing I still had the …

I probably meant libpng 😢 I guess I just get a little carried away when I mess with these things. I like to get everything working once I start messing with it. I have messed with Cygwin before as I needed it for something or the other 😕

I tried the CGA version first and it did not run. Any other settings that may help? And what is a very low cycles ratio? Where is that set ? I set the cycles low but it did not help.

Still no ideas on how to fix this. Of course this is a really old game 😅

That's what I thought. Anyway I got the darn thing to complie and guess what the joystick works now. Your right about MigGW/MSYS it is not entirely clear what you need to do to get it to work right. I got SDL set up now but there is still some question about SDL_sound. I grabbed the source and built …

Just so I understand what exactely do you mean by CVS compile ? 😊 I would still like to get the thing to compile as I used to be a programmer. Now I am a system engineer 😳 So I don't do as much code 🙄

After digging around I found that MinGW should work so I reinstalled that. Was not able to get the SDL library to install though. Is CygWin easier to use under Win XP ?

I tired it with a precompiled CVS version with the same effect. This was complied on 06/23/05. Its in Korean as far as the text and stuff goes. I notice in the readme that you can't complie with VC++ 6.0. What compliers for Win XP does work? Can you complie under Linux and and build an exe for …

Not yet I did look into that a little but I don't really know much about the CVS system. I will check and see if I can figure out how it works. I did download some precomplied stuff but was not sure about it. I will give it a try with the precompiled stuff and see if I can figure out how to use CVS …

I installed ArticFox and tried to run it under DosBox. It starts up OK but on the first screen you are supposed to hit F2 to start the game. There are also some other selection for the F keys and none of them do anything. The screen does appear to reset itself when you hit one of the F keys. Any …

Actually the game plays fine if I use the keyboard commands. It is only the joystick button 1 that makes it pause.

It just pauses if I hit the trigger again it unpauses. Makes the game real hard to play 🙄

When I try to use the joystick in Duke Nukem 2 the fire key or joykey 1 pauses the game. This does not happen on joykey 2. P is the pause key in the game. This is with the DosBox-0.63.
