sdl2 works too.

Environment = QEmu
fixes fullscreen mode
(it looks what it does is setting:
WindowedAttributes = borderless
for fullscreen mode, that fixes fullscreen too, but you are not able to drag the window 😉 )

ScaleWidth,
is needed if you want to control window resolution cause dgvoodoo sets the same res for both window and fullscreen.
ScaleWidth is just rescaling final picture, so best to set width matching dgvoodoo resolution if you want to use window.

you also have to start in a window and switch to fullscreen with ctrl-alt-f

Pretty much a hack if you ask me (borderless window) and the QEMU-3Dfx author doesn't care much about fullscreen mode from what I understand. I don't use QEMU-3Dfx so I can't help you much there.

Mods: I think that this thread should be moved to "PC Emulation" section since this isn't a release announcement.

Hi, thanks for your answer

That's what I actually read, but I must have missed something because it crashes. Robertmo mentioned sdl2 as a solution but I don't understand how to use it under the w10 host.

For my pov as an old gamer, it's an obligation to have fullscreen mode (with aspect ratio preserved). If i have a workaround to have fullscreen i want to try before to publish the tutorial.

You are right all the post about it must go to pc emulation.

ps: a video of half life, compiled on qemu 6.02

You're welcome!

robertmo meant that QEMU-3Dfx can be compiled with SDL2 libraries, which is able to use borderless window. From what I find in QEMU's wiki this can be done using the --enable-sdl command line switch with "./configure" after getting the appropiate SDL2 libraries.

Agreed, this is a very important thing with these old games.

Hmm it's more clear like that. Sad part is that i will have to compile again ^^.

Thanks

edit: There is something that i remember, with qemu 6.2.0 i already launch with -display sdl it uses old sdl ?

Compiled, tested, crashed ^^.

I verified with total commander content by compareason, exe files are not the same. Perhaps i missed something.

"../qemu-6.2.0/configure --target-list=i386-softmmu --enable-sdl"

for dgvoodoo2, i tried with fullscreen as with "borderless" & "fullscreen size" in the "windowed" part under the "general ext tab" and with "qemu" environment activated.

with just qemu environment it works but problem is the aspect ratio is not preserved.

I found a workaround previously by using openglide under w98, it worked with unreal tournament but i would to find a way with glide mode that works windowed but not with fullscreen mode.
