Re: [N800] Right mouse click

Posted on 2009-02-28, 02:55

Well, apparently with no one answering, I'm assuming there is no such solution for this. I was kind of hoping for something as simple as changing the mapperfile to something like this: key_rightclick "key 278" But yeah, doesn't look such a key can be mapped. Anyway, since touch screen handhelds are …

[N800] Eric the Unready

Heya guys! My N800 Internet Tablet can't seem to run this game with music in the background all too well and I love this soundtrack. Basically it will play good with cycles dropped at around 275 and frameskips at 10. However, it goes so slow though that moving from one area to the next takes close …

[N800] Right mouse click

Posted on 2009-02-24, 22:41

Hey all. I have a touch screen N800 internet tablet that has an awesome version of Dosbox running on it. Is there a way to simulate a right mouse click by editing the mapper.txt file and assigning it to a specific key? I have sdl autolock = false If not, is there any other tricky little work around …

Actually, I don't have a clue as to what I'm talking about. *lol* All I'm seeing in the dosbox.conf file for resolution is: # scaler -- Scaler used to enlarge/enhance low resolution modes. # Supported are none,normal2x,normal3x,advmame2x,advmame3x,hq2x,hq3x, # 2xsai,super2xsai,supereagle,advinterp2x …

Well, after fumbling around an hour our two here and there, I managed to actually double the original speed I had previously. Now my character can take a step about once every two seconds. I can't imagine anyone else finding this to be acceptable, but for myself, I'm incredibly pleased. I just …

Try turning dosbox machine - vga to dosbox machine - cga If they're text based this will make _no_ difference - vga and cga text modes are identical. Perhaps you might try even lower like MGA or hercules.(it might look a bit different tho ) I'm quite sure that ADOM requires VGA. I spent the better …

Well, I'm only looking for a half second or so upgrade in speed every time my character moves. Right now it's about 3 seconds per step which is pretty painful especially when I have to double back through a dungeon level in Ancient Domains of Mystery. Here's my Dosbox configuration file using the …

Also make sure they are games that don't use protected mode. (DOS4GW/CWSDPMI/Custom extender). Oh hey, Dosfreak! How are ya? So yeah, I was meaning to also ask about this trouble as well. Angband, Tome, and Lindsey's Crawl all chuck me immediately out of Dosbox (I'm using a front end called Rubybox …

Getting the most out of Dosbox

Posted on 2008-06-18, 04:24

I'm running Dosbox on a Nokia N800 tablet. It's about the equivalent to a 8-10 Mghz PC. So I'm trying to push the limits to play text based rogue games with no sound. What are all the options in the dosbox.conf file that I can turn off to boost the speed performance? Like what all can I say 'none' …

Joystick question

Posted on 2008-04-14, 07:24

Hey all. So I'm trying to change the mapper.txt file so that I can trick Dosbox into thinking that I'm using a joystick. I'm not finding any documentation on what these stand for and could use a little help on this. Thanks! I think that all I need is what direction each of these stand for and which …

457E: 50 -> C3 In the GAME.EXE file there is 457E:4 50 A (?) So I just changed it to 457E: C30A Is that correct? I'm not all too sure if you made a small typo on your post. I also changed 45D8: A0C8 to 45D8: C3C8 Anyway, I don't know how you managed to think that idea up, but it was completely …

# try to decrease the load for the whole system (using stuff like frameskip as MiniMax mentioned) # or not use the AdLib option # or modify DOSBox not to simulate certain channels of the OPL (which can be quite an exercise may or may not be successful and, if it works, may not bring enough of a …

Sorry about that, didn't realize the specs were all that important on this. Anyway, here's what I'm looking at: Dosbox .72 Operating System: Chinook on a Nokia n800 internet tablet It runs at a speed equivalent to a 8 -10 mhz 8086 computer, which to me, is really cool! :) Here's a screenshot of it …

Yeah there's really not much of a game setup screen. All there is in the initial menu at the start of the game is: 1. No sound 2. IBM sound which doesn't play any music, the gameplay is incredibly fast, but the sound effects sound like dust farts through the speakers 3. Adlib board which slows down …

Ivan Stewart's Super Off Road

Posted on 2008-03-11, 01:56

Greetings all. So I'm running Super Off Road in Dosbox but I have a question. Is there a way in terms of editing the dosbox.conf file to remove the music but keep the sound effects using the Adlib board sound option in this game? The music is really chunking up the framerate since I'm basically …

Re: Keyboard problem

Posted on 2007-12-03, 18:59

Okay, will do Pupnik. Just to repeat my first question again though... There's not an option in Dosbox to kill the keyboard buffer so keys don't tend to repeat themselves like crazy? Thanks. EDIT: Forgot to mention Pupnik/ArnimS that your default Dosbox.conf file for Dosbox .72 had the speed running …

Re: Keyboard problem

Posted on 2007-12-01, 05:04

Well, the settings I've got right now are: frameskip = 0 cyclespeed = 1144 Does that sound about right? Also, is there anything else I can do in the dosbox.config file to speed up text based rogue games? Thanks. 😀

Keyboard problem

Posted on 2007-11-28, 21:13

Greetings fellas. I'm using Dosbox .72 ported for the Nokia N800. I'm trying to play the DOS version of Nethack. The problem is that Dosbox runs so chunky that whenever I press a key, say for direction, by the time Dosbox picks up on what I pressed, it executes that several times. So instead of my …
