Sorry for hijacking, but how do I setup dgvoodoo to run under DOSBox? it just hangs whenever I try to play any game that uses glide2x.ovl.
Oh, and to use with vdmsound you'll need to tick the low-level CD support on Screamer 2 shortcut properties.
Screamer Rally was the win95 game, not Screamer 2.

Are you stupid filipetolhuizen?

Hijacking a thread in the DOS forum and asking about some DOSBox thing?? Why the f.ck didn't you start a new thread? Too lazy? Instead I have clean up your mess?

I'm not sure if you can at all, but
I think the only way, if ever there is one, is to try it according to the dgVoodoo's readme

have you seen its sections:

VI. Installing dgVoodoo to run DOS apps

and

XIV. Using dgVoodooSetup (Command Line, advanced) --------------------------------------------------------------- […]

XIV. Using dgVoodooSetup (Command Line, advanced)
---------------------------------------------------------------

If command line of dgVoodooSetup is not empty, GUI interface does not pop up,
information for setup operations are taken from the command line. No any feedback
on the console. (Damn, an application can't be both a GUI and Console application
under Windows, at least not in an easy way.)
This is useful for using the setup in command line scripts.

You can model the GUI workflow, which is usually the following:
- configuration is loaded from either the wrapper file (glide2x.dll, glide.dll),
or from an exported config file
- some config changes are applied if needed
- configuration is either saved in the wrapper file, or exported to external config
file, or both

Command line options:

dgVoodooSetup [wrapperfile] [/opt1] ... [/optn]
