Re: SoftMPU Serial Out > Null modem > 2nd PC running general midi synth
Posted on 2019-09-19, 13:22
Only question I have is, is softmpu attempting to set the mode for the serial port at all, or does it expect users to do that manually. It is not documented. As I mentioned earlier in this thread, the baudrate for "serial midi" is 38400, so perhaps softmpu is trying to set the serial port to that. …

Speeding up hq2x / hq3x
Posted on 2019-04-15, 11:55
I tried speeding up hq2x/hq3x (mainly by using SIMD instructions to speed up function diffYUV - on x86/x64/armv6/armv7/armv8 CPUs). When I tested just hq2x/hq3x outside of DOSBox, I measured a speed increase 55%-87% (x86/x64 versions). But when I tested whole DOSBox, the maximum speed increase was …

Error in hq2x / hq3x

There is an error in hq2x / hq3x scalers. In file src/gui/render_templates_hq.h (in function diffYUV) the lines 44, 49, 54 are the same and look like this: mask = diff >> 31; // -1 if value < 0, 0 otherwise Since diff is an unsigned integer, the result won't be -1 if value < 0, but the result will …

Re: Are There Any Source Ports for Doom/Doom 2 + Expansions That Support External MIDI Devices?
Posted on 2018-10-10, 09:08
But only if the source port uses OS's midi mapper and doesn't use softsynth directly. More to the point: I don't have personal experience with source ports, but based on the description, PrBoom+ should support external MIDI devices (if the OS supports them). I have no idea about other source ports. …

Would it make sense to have place on the PCB for Waveblaster header ? To either use MIDI out or Waveblaster header in case you already have DreamBlaster S1,X1, S2 or X2.

I tried playing all three games in the series, but I only liked (and finished) the 3rd game (I used the default party, I didn't create my own). So even if you don't like 1st or 2nd game, I suggest trying the 3rd one.
