Was anyone able to get the OCT02 build? I'm seeing a 1k zip file.

This can also be because the .zip files in the root directory of the files.pixelz.org server is only text files, read them in your text viewer/editor. It describes to you where/how to you can download the files.

/rjpa

Let's see how pissed rjpa gets when I do this...

CENSOR by Qbix.

Snover please. I asked rpja to only distribute it to members of his forum to ensure they get to say the disclaimer and other things like that.

Heh, Snover you're probably going to burn in hell for that... He'll probably just change the URL.

Censor direct link to CVS downloads (only for you lucky VOGONS readers!! 😉)

Please stop this immidietly, can't you take I offer this service for my member? If not, I will check upon referer!

Snover: I *think* what he means is that if you don't apologize and take down the link, he'll set up his server so that people who try to download his builds via links on VOGONS will be blocked.

Snover please.

Thanks mate. Direct links in the feature will be disabled. Referer check is nescessery.

I think this is getting a little extreme, to be honest.

A bit over the top indeed, but registration is free so I can't complain 😀

Sorry, it's really annoying to have to sign up, enter personal information, confirm your email address, and go to another link, just in order to download something so simple. Plus, people complain, which makes it more annoying.

Question: How would I go about changing the CFLAGS used to compile SDL and DOSBox? I want to see if using -march=athlon-xp will give me any sort of speed boost. Is there a way to do it through the configure script? I don't want to edit every single makefile configure generates.

By the way, from now on, to get the new CVS version, you'll have to enter a guarded room, jump over a pit of alligators, avoid the swinging blades, and fight a mummy to the death.
It's necessary.

On the other hand, he's going to all the trouble of compiling new binaries from the CVS every couple of days and then hosting them on his server, so I figure signing up on his forums is the least we can do. I don't plan to hang out there much (if at all) though...

That's Glidos you want then, not DOSBox 😉

Or you can just go here:

Better, and no need to register your e-mail on any bulk list.

Please stop complaining about that you need to register in order to download a daily updated CVS build. If you need to complain, do it more properly; Go to my forums, write a thread named "Complaing about DOSBox register" or something like it and let me hear your angry voice. Stop complaining here.

Love how said forum not only adds your e-mail for free to a spam list, but also provides you with a free eye test that you need to pass to register! How great is that? Unfortunately, when I looked at THIS, my eyes began to hurt:

and therefore the registration was somewhat difficult. Upon completing it, I was informed that getting the CVS required *another* registration at another forum. Yay! I'd say something here, but it would be censored, not to mention rude, so I'd rather stop.

Too bad that currently, the link for that said forum is pointing to a bad site now.

.... yeah... great work guys...
