Re: Hocus Pocus refuses to start (DosPad)

Ok this is embarrassing, I actually overlooked that some of the files in the DosPad folder had only root permissions so it's not wonder it didn't work. After giving the mobile user access to them it started without any problems though its rather laggy. Setting the cycles to 5000-6000 seems to …

Re: Hocus Pocus refuses to start (DosPad)

I've had configured it but it was still the configuration from the pc (which shouldn't make a difference). So I tried to delete the configuration file by using "del hocus.sav" and he said "Unable to delete hocus.sav". Then I removed it manually with a terminal and tried to run the setup.exe from …

[Solved] Hocus Pocus refuses to start (DosPad)

Hi, I know you dont support DosPad here but since it is based on the 0.74 version of DosBox I can't imagine a better place to ask for help (the DosPad development is practically dead). So when I try to execute Hocus.exe he gives me this message instead of starting the game: Cannot open file [DB] …

Screamer (Bleifuss) keeps crashing on 0.74

Hi so after playing the old DOS game Screamer (aka Bleifuss for the german version which I have) for a while I found out that the game or rather DosBox keeps crashing always on the same track and most of the time on the same point (only made it past that one or two times but it crashed again a short …

Re: Screamer 2 cant apply 3dfx patch

Under no circumstances should there be any need to copy dgVoodoo files, nGlide files or any other glide2x.* files into GAME directory. In fact, any such files need to be removed, if installed automatically by the patch. I'm sorry but I don't recall ykhwong posting any instructions that needed …

Re: Screamer 2 cant apply 3dfx patch

There are 2 ways of getting glide in dosbox: 1. voodoo emulation or 2. the wrapper way. Based on your error: No PCI Bus detected, you are running no. 1. by these two ways you mean what is necessary to make the game run with glide? or how I can include glide in dosbox in order to make the game run? …

Re: Screamer 2 cant apply 3dfx patch

hmm I appreciate the help but it is still lagging like hell :disapproving: Of course you can't run the game with a glide wrapper. ?? as I already said, I have no 3dfx compatible graphics card available (these are my specs btw: Intel Core Duo 6300 @2.13GHz 2GB Ram Nvidia GeForce GTS 250 Asus P5B …

Re: Screamer 2 cant apply 3dfx patch

1) glide is/was set true 2) no I dont have a 3dfx card but if the binaries include a wrapper then I dont think its a problem or? 3) I'm not trying to run the setup, as I said before I managed to get the full game working. However for some reason the 3dfx patch refuses to work/start. He gives the …

Screamer 2 cant apply 3dfx patch

Hi guys I am currently trying to make the old racing game Screamer 2 (aka Bleifuss 2) run under DosBox 0.74. I even got it working, however I would like to apply the 3dfx patch for it to get better graphics out of the game. Simply launching the patch (S2_3dfx.exe) in DosBox fails, he simply says " …
