Is there still adlib emulation? if so, where in the conf? sbrate is also missing... is there a post with the differences in settings between 61 and 62? Some people have talked about setting IPX Emulation Port? Where is that in the config? Is there any other settings missing from the default config file?

I'm new to config editing and have used Frontends before. I'm working on my own frontend and basically just copying an existing frontend and using the default config file with 62 for fields I shuld use... 😀

Thanks,
Thraka

start up dosbox and use the command "config -writeconf dosbox.conf", it will create a file dosbox.conf in the directory you started dosbox from. There you can see all settings available and their default values.

Adlib is working just fine, as before you can find it in the soundblaster section (oplmode). Dunno what happened to sbrate, it's probably no longer neccessary.

Thanks, I just did what you suggested.

Here is the soundblaster section from the new conf (62):
[sblaster]
# type -- Type of sblaster to emulate:none,sb1,sb2,sbpro1,sbpro2,sb16.
# base,irq,dma,hdma -- The IO/IRQ/DMA/High DMA address of the soundblaster.
# mixer -- Allow the soundblaster mixer to modify the dosbox mixer.
# oplmode -- Type of OPL emulation: auto,cms,opl2,dualopl2,opl3.
# On auto the mode is determined by sblaster type.
# oplrate -- Sample rate of OPL music emulation.

type=sb16
base=220
irq=7
dma=1
hdma=5
mixer=true
oplmode=auto
oplrate=22050

Here is the config soundblaster section from 61:
[sblaster]
# sblaster -- Enable the soundblaster emulation.
# base,irq,dma -- The IO/IRQ/DMA address of the soundblaster.
# sbrate -- Sample rate of soundblaster emulation.
# adlib -- Enable the adlib emulation.
# adlibrate -- Sample rate of adlib emulation.
# cms -- Enable the Creative Music System/Gameblaster emulation.
# Enabling both the adlib and cms might give conflicts!
# cmsrate -- Sample rate of cms emulation.

sblaster=true
base=220
irq=7
dma=1
sbrate=22050
adlib=true
adlibrate=22050
adlibmode=adlib
cms=false
cmsrate=22050

See the lack of adlib toggle and rate settings? Also, where is CMS? or is that replaced by OPL? 😀

Thanks people!
