Re: On adding support for Protected-Mode games to SoftMPU

Posted on 2024-08-30, 04:15

Most protected-mode MIDI support is accomplished using one of just a handful of drivers/libraries, several of which I've provided patched drivers or game executables for (SOL and iMUSE being unshared exceptions). This being the case, I believe a majority of protected-mode titles should already be …

I added protected mode MPU-401 UART support to SBEMU, see https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=98071 You can still use SoftMPU on a different port, for Intelligent Mode. Will this work for me if I just want protected mode MPU-401 in DOS and NOT any of the sound blaster features of SBEMU? My …

A while back, there have been a number of posts about a great tool for getting full screen (that is a "stretched" 4:3 aspect ratio on 320x200 DOS games) on laptops with a C&T 65550 & 65554 video chip called "VEXP", here on archive.org: https://archive.org/details/vexp13 This is targeted at a bunch …

Late pcmcia revisions and cardbus offered a feature called ZoomVideo allowing the card to directly access the vram of the laptop, it was used for mpeg1/2 decoders and some capture cards to display their input without any lag. This idea is most promising, I didn't know there was any way for pcmcia …

I wonder if it would be possible to create something like that not in MXM format, but rather in PCCard? Quiet a lot of old laptops and devices have a PCCard/PCMCIA port which should be similar enough to PCI. I think the challenge with PCCard/PCMCIA is bus speed. I somehow doubt you'd be able to get …

I've dreamed of this thing, pretty much my entire life: a proper 3Dfx-powered laptop! I just discovered this today while posting to an old thread about my desire for one of these things, haha! Re: Hardware experts, are we ever going to see replica 3D GPU's?

I can't for the life of me find the right Crystal 4237 drivers for Windows 3.1, could you point me in the right direction? [...] Windows 3.1 drivers are located in the original Orpheus page: http://pcmidi.eu/orpheus.html When it comes to win3x things will work the same as the original Orpheus , …

I did some 3.11 testing , it is indeed possible to install both and you do get both 4237 and GUS devices available and working the setup is meh though , I cannot see the point messing so much in 3.x to get both parts working in tandem , you do have to install first the 4237 and then GUS driver and …
