Re: DBGL - Using Linux settings on a MacOS machine

in DOSBox General
And since DBGL (beta) version 0.69a, it autodetects the required SWT library (matching the OS), so you should be able to start DBGL on each supported Operating System using that very same harddisk or memory stick if you simply put all the various swt??????.jar files in DBGL's lib folder. Hmm, it …

Re: DBGL - Using Linux settings on a MacOS machine

in DOSBox General
Hi everybody Sorry for the delay, I seem to have 20 things to do and only time for 5 every day :) If they're stored inside the DBGL.app package, do a right-click onto the app, choose 'Show packet content' (or similar) and look within the application package for the files. Indeed, the standard DBGL …

DBGL - Using Linux settings on a MacOS machine

in DOSBox General
Hi I've been using DBGL for some time on my main Linux machine and have built up quite a library of software applications on it as time has gone on. From time to time though, it's unfortunately necessary for me to switch to another machine for periods of time. Usually this is Windows and I simply …

Re: DOSBox Game Launcher (DOSBox Frontend)

in DOSBox General
No problem, thanks for creating the program :) I have seen one bug with 0.60, although it doesn't really need to be fixed until the next version. If you enter custom fields, they appear to be automatically converted to lower case when you next start the program. So you are ultimately unable to …

Re: New DOSBox Frontend - DOSBox Game Launcher

in DOSBox General
The RC2 package seems to work almost perfectly here. The only minor issue I can find is that it throws a stack trace when you first run it without any previous configuration. It's only reporting that it can't find a file that doesn't yet exist. You could put it in a try-catch block to suppress the …

Re: New DOSBox Frontend - DOSBox Game Launcher

in DOSBox General
I took a look at it, but couldn't get RC1 to work under Linux unfortunately. Running the jar directly via the script from the previous version didn't seem to work, even when I copied the settings file over. I'll take a better look when the next Linux release is available :) The changes look useful …

Re: New DOSBox Frontend - DOSBox Game Launcher

in DOSBox General
That's true. However, I think allowing online profiles to be made for a vast number of DOS games is a longer-term goal, as the complexity required to achieve it is quite significant. As a first step, allowing relative paths and the importing/exporting of profiles would be useful for home-made …

Re: New DOSBox Frontend - DOSBox Game Launcher

in DOSBox General
I gave DBGL a go last night and it's good. I can see how it could be very useful :) I know that DBGL has the ability to import Defend profiles, but it would be nice to be able to export and then import DBGL profiles for sharing, distribution, etc. My main purpose would be for archiving games. I …

Re: Please provide Linux x86 binaries

in DOSBox General
I run Debian here at home, and I do tend to produce my own binaries for new/CVS releases separately for speed/flexibility reasons. Dosbox does compile easily on Debian, so it's not really much of an inconvenience. To be honest, Dosbox is even easy to package with checkinstall for ease of …

Re: Dosbox commands case sensitive

in DOSBox General
Entering the command with or without the equals sign are both acceptable. However, if the command is given in capitals, then it seems to set the cycles to 3000 instead of max. I should add that CYCLES=max works, even though CYCLES=MAX does not. I think this thread should of been left in the …

Keyboard mapper via command-line

in DOSBox General
Hi all Is it possible to change the keyboard mapper from the command-line? I've tried a few times, but never had any luck with it. The command is accepted, but seems to make no difference to the mapping. [Edit] Sorry, this should probably of gone in the general forum, but it seems I don't have the …

Dosbox commands case sensitive

in DOSBox General
Hi everybody Has any noticed that some of the Dosbox commands seem to be case-sensitive? As far as I recall, the original commands in Dos could be typed in any case without any problems. But I can't quite remember to be sure. As a example, if you type CYCLES=MAX then CYCLES will show MAX, but the …

Re: Bizarre DOS Menu problem in 0.70

Hitting escape once seems to stop the scrolling, a second press seems unnecessary at this end. However, it can be simply be started again by pressing a key (which then automatically repeats). Interestingly, pressing enter in the menu does not stop the problem from occurring again. It seems only …

Re: Bizarre DOS Menu problem in 0.70

No, why should it? I don't have a clue what you want by that, shall we look through the layout code now for weeks just to finally find out that um... it's disabled? If you have something like "it works at cvs date 9/9/06 but doesn't at 7/7/06" that's a start. But not "hey keyboard problem->cvs log …

Re: Bizarre DOS Menu problem in 0.70

And why exactly? Just because "keyboard" is in your problem and "keyboard" is in the cvs log? In what way is this helpful then? Btw. keyboard mapping!=keyboard layout. I'm aware of that. But you've got to admit that the sudden appearance of this issue along with the new keyboard mapping code …
