Hi,

Congratulations for DOSBox, a great emulator ! It's really a good job !

I use DOSBox since v0.61, and on this version I was able to run 2nd Reality demo without problem.

But since 0.62, when I start it, i have the following message after sound mode selection :

"Fatal signal : segmentation fault (SDL parachute deployed)"

This message appears in v 0.63 too.

Any idea to solve this ?

Thanks.

just tried it with 0.63
works fine

you might want to check your 2nd reality download as it runs fine with default setup of dosbox

I don't understand either 😀 It seems to run perfectly for me.

Here is what I did:

  1. Read the instructions listed on PAiN.
  2. Downloaded 2nd_real.zip .
  3. Downloaded 2ndpatch.zip.
  4. Unpacked the demo (2nd_real.zip) into a demo directory.
  5. Unpacked the patch (2ndpatch.zip) and placed the "fixer" ((2ndfix.exe) in the demo directory.
  6. Created a DOSBox configuration (dosbox.conf) according to the instructions and put it in the demo directory:
    [dosbox]
    memsize=32

    [cpu]
    cycles=5000

    [sblaster]
    type=none

    [dos]
    xms=false
  7. Started DOSBox:
    dosbox -conf demo\dosbox.conf demo\2ndfix.exe
  8. Hit ENTER to start the demo.
  9. Leaned back and enjoyed the show!
