I just accidently noticed something I just can't explain: Using the current SVN the game "World Rally Fever" always skips the third intro screen and the following intro sequence, no matter what settings I use. However, I just put a "pause" command at the beginning of the [autoexec] section of my config file, because I wanted to record the game and this gives me the time to press the keys for recording. And by doing so I accidently fixed the problem with skipped intro sequences, now whenever I start the game and press any key to continue, the intro runs just fine. I double checked the issue by commenting out the "pause" command and, as expected, the intro sequence is skipped again. Uncommenting it, the intro again runs fine.
This is my [autoexec]
[autoexec]
pause
mount C GAME
imgmount D "GAME\CD\WRF.CUE" -t iso -fs iso
c:
cd WRF
RALLY.EXE
exit
As you can see, the pause is started way before the game, so it shouldn't influence it at all, yet it obviously does. So mybe it's a bug in DOSBox? Does anyone have an explanation for this behaviour? Or a possible fix for it?
