It's all emulated. In Windows DOSBox sends the MIDI data to the default software synth you have on your system. That's usually the Windows one, which is reportedly not very good. That's why some users also install others, such as VirtualMIDISynth. These also support different "fonts" (sets of sample …

I've been having trouble installing the Player's Choice Edition of this game. And I'm afraid that the tips shared by the other board members haven't helped. Eventually, I've settled for installing the game using PCem. This prevents the crash when attempting to configure the sound devices, and the …

DOSBox-X v2025.02.01 is just out. However, it seems that this time there are no new options / switches to worry about. Here's the changelog.

Of course, if you own real Roland hardware there's no need to bother with virtual synths or anything.

An interesting move. I remember having set up some games for General MIDI music, but I think they stopped working when I installed VirtualMIDISynth. Or maybe I should have changed something in their configuration, I don't know. Anyway, VirtualMIDISynth + the Arachno Soundfont is my current favorite …

Trying to replicate the problems I mentioned yesterday, I've set up a new DBGL installation with DBGL v1.00b5, latest DOSBox Staging beta and said game packages. This time everything worked fine on my first attempt: https://i.imgur.com/rTZthOc.png So I guess we can forget about the whole thing. One …

Speaking of profiles / templates meant for DOSBox v0.74, I recently created a DBGL setup to showcase DOSBox Staging and its new emulation of the Roland Sound Canvas. I also used some of the game packages on your website, to be exact the ones with Apogee, Epic and Id Software games, and I remember …

Great job. The new DOSBox-X doesn't change any important options, does it? I saw the update elsewhere, but it looked to me more like a bugfix release.

Swapping floppies only works in DOSBox SVNs or DOSBox forks. You need to mount all of them as A: and floppy, then press CTRL+F4 during emulation to change between them. EDIT: Before installing the game, the Mounting tab should look like this:

Looks like upcoming DOSBox Staging builds are going to offer Roland Sound Canvas emulation. I'm salivating... You can obtain a Git version with said Sound Canvas support at https://github.com/dosbox-staging/dosbox-staging/actions/runs/12430167903/artifacts/2347979456 Changes to the dosbox-staging. …

Just noticed that DBGL v0.98 seems to have trouble opening game packages created with 0.99. It's understandable, but I wonder if there's any easy fix for this. I'd like to keep trading packages between my desktop (Windows 10 and DBGL v0.99) and my laptop (Windows 7 and therefore DBGL v0.98).

I have a quick question regarding translations. I know that I must translate options, descriptions... but what about parameters?

That's wonderful! And much, much faster than I expected. Are there any new strings that require translation? If it is so, I'll try to do them before you post the final version.

DOSBox-Staging v0.82 is just out, and of course they had to fiddle wth some of DOSBox options. Here are the changes: - The openglnb output mode for OpenGL with nearest-neighbour interpolation has been removed - The voodoo_multithreading confing setting (which previously toggled three extra worker …
