I just got the big box of Batman Forever yesterday and set it up in DOSBox instantly. It should run fine with default settings, at least it does on my PC: Copy code to clipboard 1 core = auto 2 cputype = auto 3 cycles = auto

ripsaw8080, you're a genius! 😁 I ran the game smoothly with 50000 cycles and both level transitions and losing the last life worked by pressing END, thanks to your fix tool!

Awww, that's too bad. So I'd rather stick to the SNES versions included in the Steam package, even though I like the DOS version more.

I recently bought "Jim Power - The Lost Dimension" on Steam and I really like the game. It's beautiful, colorful and the music is great! But there's one thing bugging me and ruining the gameplay a bit: f you set the cycles to anything higher than 4000, the game will lock up between level transitions …

Just change the settings to what jmarsh said, it should give you the sharp, crispy pixels you're looking for.

Hi, Yesterplay80. Given that for many users like me, pixel-perfect scaling is the most/only interesting feature of DOSBox ECE compared with the regular official DOSBox, it would probably make sense to add a direct link to the latest build of DOSBox ECE that had pixel-perfect scaling, to the page of …

3. How do I run the Linux version of DosBox ECE with that extention-less file in the BIN folder? Is it something I need to point the file to like some kind of program opener, or is it something I need advanced skills with to compile or something like that? Linux noob here, ya know. You could either …

IMG files are images created with CloneCD. If they contain CD audio as well, they should come with a CCD file and maybe a SUB file, bot with the same name as the IMG file. The CCD file is important, it's basically the CloneCD version of a CUE file and contains the info, where to access the audio …

Hi krcroft, thanks for the answer. I checked the staging version and it works fine! It’s very unfortunate that ECE does not include the latest version of your patch, since ECE contains a cool pixel-perfect image output feature. Now I don’t even know which version to prefer... Currently, ECE doesn't …

How is it that there is shader support? At first everyone was against it because it is crap and now dosbox contains shader support? Now does both work? No one was against it, but back then (over 2 years ago), the patch for the shaders and the one for pixel perfect scaling simply didn't work …

Yesterplay80, I also share your sentiment regarding the voodoo patch: an unfortunate but unavoidable consequence of unaccepted patches that touch the same area changed by upstream. Hopefully that patch author can refurbish it again or someone else can take up work. I think I managed to fix it …

OK, the problem is that I was not changing mididevice from default. Other Munt builds and I could have sworn earlier ECE builds did not need this. Yes, the first few ECE builds including MT32emu had it set as default, you're right. But I already changed that quite some time ago, because MT32 isn't …

The Munt emulation in ECE is not working for me anymore. It sounds like it cannot find the ROMs, even though they are present in the specified romdir and the ROMs work with earlier versions. I also noticed that if the ROMs are not present in the specified location it no longer tells you "MT32: …

I'd like to give your updated patch a try in ECE, Kisai.So, besides the patch and GLIBless fluidsynth source files, what would I need? Is the backporting you mentioned done in the patch or would I have to make changes to the fuidsynth source beforehand? If so, which changes are required?
