Re: Probs with F1 Manager Pro

Du hast Die Frage noch nicht wirklich beantwortet. Ein Reset wäre es, wenn Dein PC "spontan" neu startet, während Du das Spiel spielst. Falls das passiert, hat wahrscheinlich Deine Kiste ein Problem. Das kann z.B. defekte Hardware sein, kaputte Lüfter, falsche/veraltete Treiber, zu hohe …

Re: Playing custom maps (PUDs) in Warcraft 2

I didn't try to play custom maps yet, but this looks like a mounting error. You're mounting "c:\juegos\warcraftii\war2" as c:\, which means the directory the game is installed to becomes c:\. But the game probably expects to be installed in a subdirectory of c:\, so you could try to mount "c:\juegos …

Re: Last Express/Win '95 emulator?

Last Express works fine, i've tested it some months ago with DOSBox 0.70 (the latest version at the time). Search VOGONS for the game's name to get additional info, there was a thread about the game some time ago. EDIT: the thread i was referring to is not very useful. Just use the "standard …

Re: Question about Dos Emulators

Eh - this is something that has been possible with real CPU's for the last 30 years. :pppt: ??? i don't think so: Virtualization Technology on Wikipedia. I know there's something called "Virtual Mode" or similar, and it has something to do with coding on x86 (?), but it was that "Virtualization …

Re: Question about Dos Emulators

We're getting quite OT here, but it's an interesting topic... I've tried the accelerator on windows, but there was no noticeable difference in the VM's performance. On the QEmu forums, i've read that the Linux accelerator module gives a huge speed boost - didn't try that yet, though.

Re: Question about Dos Emulators

Heh... To discuss the difference between emulation and virtualization would be completely academical. I don't think there are 100% valid, all-around accepted definitions for both terms. My personal definition is that there's only two kinds of "emulation": software-based, and hardware-based. Hardware …

Re: Question about Dos Emulators

has 233mhz processor, 96 ram, 1mb vid memory (shudder), 3 gig HD I'd be so bold to say that you can forget running Qemu, or any other "real" PC emulator, with useable speed on that machine. It's either native DOS (or Win95/98 DOS), or you'll have to wait for your new PC. Besides, when using what i …

Re: Dosbox Crashes When XP Locks Desktop

Ebf18, open "dosbox.conf" in your DOSBox directory with a text editor, and look for the line starting with "output=" (near the beginning of the file). Try some of the values mentioned in the comment block above that line. I'm using "ddraw", because it works best on my system.

Re: Halo III - Hyped and Overrated?

in Milliways
Oh, MS bashing, how original... MS does marketing, of course. And they are doing a very good job in that field, AFAICT. The question is: where does "normal" marketing (if there is such a thing at all) end, and where does hyping begin? DOSFreak: the sales numbers of H2 vs. H3 will be really …

Halo III - Hyped and Overrated?

in Milliways
I finished the game on the "normal" diffculty setting this morning, and i must say i'm amazed. Not by the quality of the game, but amazed about the massive scores the game got all over the place (9.5 on Gamespot and IGN, for example). When reading the reviews, it sounds like Halo III is the best, …

Re: What are the different and best MT-32 emulators?

Thanks for the info! Time to do some addition research - but i've learned that the MT-32 would probably sufficient for gaming. Damn, there's a dealer in my city that has one for € 99.- (including a one year warranty), but i'm on a tight budget ATM. It's quite a big investment just for playing some …

Re: What are the different and best MT-32 emulators?

I hope this is not too far off topic, but could be interesting for anyone who cares about that Roland stuff: Dominus, as you seem to rather proficient with the topic, could you give a quick rundown of which cards exist, and which are the "best" for gaming with DOSBox? I read about MT-32, CM-32, CM- …

Re: MechWarrior 2 IBM cd-rom installation help!

What??? You want to use DOSBox 0.72 once it gets working? But if it works, why use DOSBox 0.72? ??? Don't post when you're drunk... (; DoctorKazefa: install the game from within DOSBox. You don't need DOS disks, as DOSBox emulates a DOS environment. Read the readme and the guides here to find out …
