Re: PCEm. Another PC emulator.

Sorry for asking a noob question: where can I get dells200 and acer386 rom files? You can't, unfortunately - despite being listed in the Readme and website, those two systems aren't actually supported by PCem in any public-facing sense. Sarah Walker actually dumped those ROMs from her own hardware, …

Here's an update on that bug with the host's mouse pointer remaining visible after switching to fullscreen (Direct3D mode only). I was messing around, and I found that if I make the host mouse pointer disappear before switching to fullscreen (i.e. click within the window to capture the mouse and …

Hi, I found a problem in V0.8. (And in V0.7, too.) While playing "Pitstop 2" (A PC-booter game), I should hold the cursor keys to control my car. But if I hold them a while, they will automatic "held" until I press the "held" key again. Please have a look into this. Thanks a lot. :) BTW, does …

One other bug, very minor but very pesky: Direct3D Fullscreen doesn't erase the host's mouse pointer. At higher resolutions this can be a problem because an entire character can be obscured by the pointer, which isn't movable (nor should it be). Should be simple enough to blank it out - Direct Draw …

Also, a heads up for Sarah Walker on some minor oversights/glitches with the release version: - Folders for the sis496 and 430vx have not been created within the "roms" directory. It was trivial to create them myself, but a user who wasn't familiar with the source code would be lost, not knowing …

Nice one! Absolutely loving this release so far. The new machines and cards are a treat. I only wish I could track down a copy of the Mach64GX BIOS! Google's not been any help. If anyone has any leads, please PM me.

I'm not adding any more features for a while by the way, just getting the emulator to a stable enough state for a release. I may look at some of this stuff in the new year. Yeah, it's been a while since 0.7, and so much has been added as it is. 0.8 will be a huge step forward just with the current …

Thanks for clearing that up, VileRancour. I had thought there was a bit more standardization, but in any case, your DOSBox version of the patch is fantastic and I've spent more time with it than I can count. It really does capture the overall feel of CGA Monochrome as I remember it. I'm glad you …

CHEERS on the Fullscreen mode... loving the various options (square pixels, 4:3, etc.) Truly well done! And thank you also to SA1988 for working on porting over NE2000 support. That will be fantastic as well. For the future, some kind of integrated HLSL would be delightful :) I'd just like to point …

Bit of a red herring, surely? Just make the fullscreen toggle something like Ctrl+Alt+Pause/Break, which would rarely if ever be used for anything else. That's the combination a lot of VMs/remote desktops/etc. use, including Microsoft RDP, and it's never caused anyone any problems from what I can …

First, I'd just like to say that PCem is an absolute godsend for a vintage-PC buff such as myself--SarahWalker, thank you so much for your dedication and the years of hard work you've poured into this fantastic emulator. I'm thrilled that you're still working on it and that it's getting better by …

Using the host PC speaker

Posted on 2009-01-28, 02:43

As far as I can tell, DOSBox has no provisions for playing emulated PC speaker audio on the host's actual PC speaker (correct me if I'm wrong, of course). Just curious -- why not? And are there any CVS/unofficial builds or patches that add this functionality? There's nothing quite like an actual PC …
