[OT] GUS emulation

Hi Canadacow I've just tried your GUS version of dosbox with second reality, works like a charm! I also tried doom, but it crashes out with DPMI enabled. With DPMI disabled it runs but I get no sound. I guess I'm hoping for too much this early in the dosbox protected mode cycle. I'll have to track …

Re: EFF Representation

Totally agree. In the mean time, it would be great if you get GUS emulation cracked Canadacow! I remember Second Reality on my brother's computer with a GUS; I was totally blown away :D I was stuck with a Soundblaster Pro :( His computer was the first we had with a 3 1/2" floppy drive, I was still …

Re: We've Been SLAPPed

Canadacow, it's a bit of luck they DIDN'T point out the restored copyright to you in the first place, if so the emulator wouldn't sound anyway near as good as it does now cos you would have dropped the project!! This is a sad day indeed. Innovation squashed by corporation. Hopefully enough people …

Re: We've Been SLAPPed

Sensible words Canadacow, thank goodness for reason where emotions are running high! How do your negotiations stand at the moment? Did you have any joy when you tried to get in touch? And also, have you put the project on hold until this nonsense is settled! Matthew 😀

Re: We've Been SLAPPed

Sounds good to me, keep us posted Snover. Hopefully these tosspots will conclude there is nothing in violation and sod off. I'm glad I downloaded the earlier versions of Canadacows's emulator 😁

Re: We've Been SLAPPed

Incredible. I bet the arseholes have been sitting waiting until the emulation was nearing completion ready to pounce. I'd love to see the look on the litigator's face when they were presented with this one! Have they nothing better do do? POWER TO THE OLD SCHOOL! MIDDLE FINGER TO THE LAWYERS!

Re: Final version

Canadacow; I've just tried Ultima 6 and the tuning is perfect to my ear. Well done that man! I'll try a few more later when i get home from work. This is a bit of a cheeky question, but could you compile a dosbox binary from the current CVS? I'd like to see how Ultima 7 sounds!! Thankyou for all the …

Re: 2003-8-12 Release

I've just tried Ultima 6 and in the title screen the music is out of tune. The two lead instruments are correct but the bass track is two notes off key from the sound of it. Canadacow: How was the first day on the job! Regards, Matt

Re: 2003-8-12 Release

Hi Canadacow, Firstly congratulations on the job! It'll be a shame to see the project slow down, I've enjoyed getting home from work and eagerly checking the website for updates! This release is sounding much better, the pitch sounds correct, just the odd track slightly off tune now. It's been nice …

Re: 2003-8-8 Release

Long length of Co-Ax shaped into a wierd and wonderful antenna! Good for wireless networks, ad-hoc tv aerial too! Also good for hanging the washing on :sly: I'm burning the mid-night oil, no early calls at work tomorrow so a little Pink Floyd and the laptop, occasional cigarette. Square eyes by the …

Re: 2003-8-8 Release

Maybe octave is the incorrect word to use (being a non musician!) The emulator sounds two notes lower than the MT32; can't think of the correct terminology and it's late;) All the best, Matt

Re: 2003-8-8 Release

I was comparing the MP3's on your web page. Have a listen to them, the real MT32 samples are definitely two octaves higher than the emulated versions. I haven't got an MT32 but i'll compare the emulator to the adlib tracks to double check. (Is this worth doing?) No chance to play tonight, my wife is …

Re: 2003-8-8 Release

I see what you mean Lucasierra, the emulated version is two octaves lower than the original. Other than that though the music sounds pretty damn good, with only the odd underlying tracks slightly off pitch. Canadacow: I wouldn't call it arrogance, I'd call it pride in your baby!:D
