Thanks Errius! That is indeed correct and I'm able to exit the game with mappings like so: key_lctrl "stick_0 button 6" key_y "stick_0 button 6" So now I'm left with a question of why I couldn't map CTRL-F9 properly. If that mapping was working, I should have been exiting dosbox. I'll investigate …

I'm attempting to play Alley Cat with a controller. To exit the game, you press CTRL-F9. I've verified this works fine with a keyboard. However, I can't seem to come up with a way to map that to a controller button or buttons. First attempt was to put definitions like this into the mapper file: key_ …

Thanks for the pointer to the 16bpp patch. I've compiled my own custom version of dosbox and it seems to be working. I haven't actually started playing the game yet, but it comes up and responds to mouse picks on the menu, sound is low but decent, etc. It still makes me wonder what settings, patches …

sorry for the double post -- I got a URL error after hitting submit the first time and assumed it hadn't gone through.

Thanks for the input. I've turned off dynamic core (set it to normal) and no change. As for the other questions: 1. Was disk 1 mounted as D when you installed? Yes. 2. I don't think DOSBox 0.60 had VESA support, so you might try disabling VESA in the game or using a CVS build of DOSBox Hmm... I …

Hmm... Looking over my post, I'm thinking I might have left out some important info. I'm running on Linux. I've configured the sound in 11th Guest as follows: MIDI music: Creative Labs Sound Blaster or 100% compatible Digital audio: Gravis UltraSound I had previously set both sound devices to be …

The dosbox website indicates that as of 0.60 11th Hour is supported. I'm running 0.63 (latest at this date) and I can't get it running. I've managed to get it to install, and that process seems to have ended happily enough (no warnings, etc.). But when I run the game I get these messages in the …
