Both being protected mode games, it's possible they just don't work right under the current CVS. (Like dosbox says when you start it up, Dosbox does not run protected mode games) However, some things you want to avoid/try with sound setup programs: Avoid autodetection... Even on a native SB with a …

Yeah, that shot is from the current CVS. The doorgame doesn't actually work fully right. Although the universe generation works, the game freaks out on some turn actions. Probably the file access (TW2002 supported multinode BBS's, so it opened in a file mode which allowed simultaneous writes from …

how about in the [dos] section of the config, just adding a ansi=true/false to the thing? All this talk of ANSI gives me a wicked idea...

Getting the CVS to compile under MingW: Very first thing. Pick up msys , the minimal system for MingW. This gives you a basic sh to run scripts in. First of all, you're going to have to run "./autogen.sh". For that you'll either need a LOT of junk for msys, like automake and autoconf (which each …

Originally posted by Ron_Lugge Now, I just have to figure out how to increase the speed... Running a 1.5 GHz processor, I should be able to run this a lot faster... Oh - I'll just try skipping frames. I missed that in the readme... Additionally, don't forget the options in TFTD which accellerate …

First: get the latest cvs compile of dosbox. Second: use terror from the deep's setup program to disable sound. Third: Try running the game under dosbox. Fourth: if it still doesn't work, wait for the next release and repeat. =)

Update: I just compiled the latest CVS (as of 5 minutes before this post) under mingw without cygwin, and a new compile of SDL 1.2.6 using only mingw. Same results, except the palette doesn't go nuts until after the first graphics mode switch. After I exit the game (any game, any mode), the dosbox …

Dosbox, latest CVS version, compiled under cygwin with mingw. For some reason on my pc, all palettes in 16 or 256 colors are extremely messed up in any color depth in windowed mode. (I've tried it with 256, 16m, and 32m color mode) Is this normal? I've seen windowed screenshots from other machines …

Latest CVS, UFO works great, albeit a little slowly on my Athlon 2.0ghz, with digital sound disabled. Midi works and sounds great. (using Roland/LAPC1 music) Edit: I will confirm the game crash when Soundblaster digital audio is enabled. Something fishy about the way those guys (the ufo guys) wrote …
