hi,
i tried to run earthsiege from dynamix in dosbox 0.62 win32 with winXP SP2 on a notebook with P4 2.8, ATI RadM 9600 and AC`97 sound. the newest catalyst grafics drivers are installed.
so i tested all possible output modes, switched off all sound-emulations and tested it with and without xms and ems. and i also varied the core type and the machine dosbox is emulating.
everytime earthsiege starts, shows the intro, shows the menu and if i start a game it crashes back to windows. all the windows are closing, but i can read these errormessages while closing:
CONFIG:Loading settings from config file dosbox.conf
MIDI:Opened device:win32
Fatal signal: Segmentation Fault (SDL Parachute Deployed)
in the games list of dosbox.sourceforge.net there are two entries for earthsiege. both are described as supported from version 0.61.
the first one has the comment: 32-bit protected mode game
and the comment of the second one is: CPU Paging features aren't supported
what does it mean ?
is there a reason why it won't run ?
does anyone played this game with dosbox ?
