Re: DOSBox Feature Request Thread

I found the configuration file and changed gus to true. No dice. I realize this thing is using something like CQM synthesis to imitate LA synthesis and GM. But with the frustration with soundfonts, I can understand why the Gravis Ultrasound may be a better option. With the FB-01 I can hear part of …

Re: Xcom : UFO Defense on CD (CD-i)

in DOS
This is how you set the game up for use with the Soniqbear. Windows comes with a facility for recording video captures of video games. It works alright with DOSBox and DOSBox -X. You have to start the game before you can start recording. Press Window+G to open up the facility.

Re: Yamaha MIDI module

in Milliways
Oops, I flubbed my test. I forgot, I need to set oplmode to none to test whether the FB-01 works with DOSBox or not. No, it does not work. And DOSBox kind of hangs up with it. DOSBox does not hang when I put the module in receive all mode by pressing the system setup mode multiple times. The line in …

Yamaha MIDI module

in Milliways
I have tested using a Yamaha FB-01 sound module and a M-Audio Uno (compatible back to 98SE) and the external synth does work with Alib/Soundblaster midi modes. It sounds so much like DOSBox that I imagine that it is the basis of DOSBox. There is a rack mountable version, the Yamaha FSR1, that might …

Re: Forgotten Realms

in Windows
Eye of the Beholder from GOG does work, you need to right click to use your weapons. Pick up stones early on and you thief and mage can throw them from the back line. The cleric does better at front, since he his better armed and armored than a thief. My party is paladin/cleric/thief/mage. I only …

I got a brand new sealed box and it only has 3 disks. An interesting error message appears on DOXBox -X. 2021-05-09 14_10_35-DOSBox-X 0.83.11_ 3000 cycles_ms, MPSCOPY.jpg I tried installing in DOSBox instead and it got stuck. 2021-05-09 14_22_02-DOSBox 0.74-3, Cpu speed_ 3000 cycles, Frameskip 0, …

Re: DOSBox Feature Request Thread

Filename 2021-05-04 19_48_56-.jpg File size 21.02 KiB Views 4716 views Version 83.13 of DOSBox X will not install. What an odd dialog. It appears to be Windows generated. I do have Spywareblaster installed and I do not know how that affects the operating sytem.

Re: Forgotten Realms

Believe it or not, DOSBox has come a long way. Now that they've added fluidsynth to DOSBox -X there's something else that can go wrong. The sound effects in Lord of the Rings were flubbed somehow, they've been fixed. I got Eye of the Beholder to work with the Silver Collection. It's start.bat to …

Re: Timbres of Heaven

It doesn't sound half bad. The best freeware soundfont is OmegaGMGS2.sf2. Aspirin is also worthy of note. Soniqbear does something weird with the timing. Aspirin corrects it. There is some sort of pre-delay with the drums, if done correctly. Omega fixes the vocals, it's like there's a note that …

Re: Forgotten Realms

People keep replying to your posts, and you never give any indication that you are learning anything from what people are trying to tell you. I have learned from this forum. Now I've run into bugs that I hope can be resolved in a future version. The version of Dungeon Hack that comes with Forgotten …

Re: Forgotten Realms

in Windows
The new collection 3 from GOG contains only Dungeon Hack and Menzoberranzan. The original silver collection was beautifully complete and it's a shame Menzoberranzan doesn't work. The original Forgotten Realms collection was called "The Forgotten Realms Archives." It is described on the wikipedia …

Forgotten Realms

If you run install.exe from DOSBox you get the following error message after selecting continue. Filename 2021-04-21 21_16_59-DOSBox 0.74-3, Cpu speed_ 3000 cycles, Frameskip 0, Program_ INSTALL.jpg File size 46.85 KiB Views 1267 views Is there anything that can be done about that?

Re: Xcom : UFO Defense on CD (CD-i)

in DOS
The images of the floppy disk version on Mobygames are wrong, there are at least 4 disks for that version. Wrong! It's a bug with DOSBox -X Also, the Soniqbear soundfont is much better than the SC-880 soundfont. The synergi soundfont, while ordinarily excellent, just isn't loud enough. The BGM needs …

Forgotten Realms

in Windows
I have the Forgotten Realms Archives silver edition. The setup program launches but none of the individual games will install. It improved with Windows update. Disk 2's install file is frontend.exe and it is Blood and Magic, the last SSI game for DOS. It does not run on my computer. Disk 3 is a demo …

Re: Master of Orion2

in Windows
Doesn't DOSBox -X run Win9x games? Even if Windows doesn't. I've used network over LAN. I have read the network over WAN works too, if you have one person with Windows server edition. The online manuals for this game are illegible.
