Re: Test results using VESA testing program

Posted on 2013-09-22, 00:46

That was using the latest dosbox (2010) release. SVN, do you mean like the Taewoong release? I was under the impression we didn't need to use UNIVBE TSR, I will try that and see what happens. Update1: I have tested with the game's included SETVIDEO.EXE UVBELib 5.1a Configuration utility (SciTech …

Test results using VESA testing program

Posted on 2013-09-22, 00:32

I recently looked at 'Spycraft: The Great Game' for the first time and noticed an included TSTVIDEO.EXE It is an VESA VBE/Core 2.0 Compliance Test Release 5.1a (Apr 17 1995) I tested with what I assume are the six DosBox options which should? support VESA; svga_s3 = compatible but fails half way …

Some info from Aqrit; Being able to specify an output resolution: Changing the resolution has all the same problems as adding windowed mode. You just can't increase the resolution, you also have to hook the mouse cursor. It may happen some day in the distant future. FakeVsyncInterval has a min of 1 …

Hmm, that is interesting. So if you put FakeVsync=0 I guess it must work the same as when you put FakeVsync=2 am I right? What refresh rate do you have your desktop/monitor at while you are playing TS2000? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My initial research on the internet about the …

Ok, tested your settings with TS2000. This worked better on my computer though; Aqrit ddraw.dll FakeVsync=1 FakeVsyncInterval=0 SingleProcAffinity=0 (maybe you need 1 for your CPU, no difference for me) D3DWindower Use DDraw Flip Blt ticked (All other three Blt options UNTICKED) DDraw Colour Emulate …

I set FakeVsyncInterval = 1000 in ts2000 and it drop to 1 FPS. Sweet! No difference with 'Another Zero', game must lock the framerate somehow. Wonder if there is a way to overide it? Also tried another game called 'GanGan Extend' and problem was the opposite. First in the game's options menu you …

I am testing a game called 'Another Zero'. It appears that the game is suppose to run at 40FPS. Also, when you load the game a message box pops up in Japanese with yes/no options and then after you leave that the game goes fullscreen and begins. Because of that message box DXGL and D3DWindower have …

Re: DXGL (DDraw\D3D wrapper to OGL)

Been using this for a while and from what I gather this utility is still very much in the 'preliminary stages'. I can really see the future potential though, once the functionality/usability gets more complete. Correct me if I'm wrong; but it looks to me that DXGL output's to the same resolution …

Year i mean D3DWindower is a 8 years old wrapper (2004) and it run better than dxwnd. No more lag/choopy and a game sync very well with my refresh rate. It enough for me. Tell me what settings you are using and I will test it as well. Are you using it with Aqrit ddraw.dll? I found a way to …

Beat me! A 8 years old D3DWindower most solid and pleasing than hundreds versions of Dxwnd, combined with aqrit form the perfect duo. I'm happy :) I'm sorry is hard to follow your english. Are you saying you have got D3DWindower and Aqrit ddraw.dll working together? D3DWindower has alot more …

No, as I have said I can play a game at 60FPS with monitor at 75Hz refresh rate with no problems using Aqrit ddraw.dll regardless of VSync enabled or disabled. My framerate will be 60FPS and smooth with no 'screen tearing'. ;) Ah, so you are running the game with your refresh rate at 85Hz. If Game …

What is your CPU model and speed? Can find by clicking 'start', control panel, system. Then on 'General' tab it should list under sub-heading 'computer'. Using D3DWindower with Aqrit ddraw.dll it maybe possible to increase performance. Also, what is your desktop resolution and refresh rate set at? I …

Please don't take offense by my response's, communities are about working together to solve problems. There is NO right or wrong answer and with so many variables in the realm of PC it is not uncommon for strange problems to arise. So please, don't be scared to give us some more information so we …

Sorry Cloudstr but I don't see that happening with games I have tested so far. Could you explain with more detail so maybe someone can reproduce the issue? From what I have tested, if you want to run a game in a window use DXWind with Aqrit ddraw.dll and game will not run change fast/slow/fast.. …

Raiden II always starts in windowed mode and then you must select fullscreen from the menu option. (Everytime unfortunately) Yes, I did notice FPS display sometimes doesn't show in windowed mode. If I didn't mention it before then it was because I wasn't too concerned. Only noticed it on a few games …
