Hallo,
gibt es eine Lösung, wenn DOSBOX unter MacOS 11 nur noch ein leeres Fenster öffnet?
Unter Catalina war alles ok.

Hi, I do know german, but for all other users - write in english. Moreover it's 21century - there are multiple translators over internet!

Well... I miss 80/90s ... End of story

Sorry,

here again in English.

Is there a solution if DOSBOX only manages an empty window under MacOS 11?
Everything was ok under Catalina.

Try setting output in [sdl] section of dosbox.conf to various values like surface, overlay, opengl, openglnb, etc.

Also, try sdl2 build of dosbox in nothing helps.

Make sure that you use the 0.74.3-3 release or a current SVN build (https://www.dropbox.com/s/kbrf5elbcu66kst/Dos … apshot.dmg?dl=0 <- that's the one I do, I also am doing the releases for macOS) and that output is set to opengl in the preference file (~/library/preferences/DOSBox 0.74-3-3 Preferences or DOSBox SVN Preferences).
I do think it's because it is neither a current SVN or the 0.74-3-3 version. There were some fixes needed for macOS 10.14 and newer that are now in the builds.

I did test right now on Big Sur and I had no such problem but the fixes needed were especially for Macs with nvidia or intel graphics cards, so I wouldn't notice that, anyway

AFAIK this only affects builds done for the ARM version of Big Sur (or maybe also builds done against the Big Sur SDK). The 0.74-3 versions and my SVN builds of DOSBox *DO* have sound on Big Sur.

Hello Dominus,

many thanks.

It worked right away with the current SVN build.

Best regards
