Did you hit CTRL+F4 each time you swapped floppies?

DOSBox only runs DOS games. You are trying to run a Windows game in DOSBox. We do not support Abandonware here.

Have you tried different core= and cycles in DosBox 0.72? IIRC, DosBox 0.63 uses normal core as default and a fixed cycle rate of 3000 whereas 0.72 uses "auto" for both settings.

You'll never see DosBox with an emulated 3DFX card. Only via passthru with a wrapper as it's done currently.

I think DOSBox (via SDL) supports reading OGG/MP3 from cuesheets as long as your .cue is setup correctly.

If I had to guess it looks like the copy command errors out because DOSBox doesn't support "/V" for verification. If you remove "/v" from your batch file it should work.

If your running DOS games in an NT based OS to test VESA compatibility then your wrong. If your testing the game in a 9x command prompt then your a bit better off but you should really be testing the game in real DOS.

http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/001081.html You may remember Sierra's ImagiNation network from the earliest days of dial-up networking: The ImagiNation Network (INN), aka The Sierra Network (TSN), was the first online multiplayer gaming system. Developed by Sierra On-Line in 1989, and …

Looks like people even had these issues back in 2003. http://www.rage3d.com/board/archive/index.php … t-33675876.html I almost never use AA since I always run things in high-res so I never experienced these issues myself.

EAW was written for like DX5 wasn't it? Going to have to look. Did your Geforce provide AA in the game?

Re: Some issues with the DOSBox MacOS port

This is an OSX community issue, not a DOSBox issue. There is no reason to mention in the readme on 'Why Your Movies Don't Work" since the movies work fine. It's the OS that has the issue because it doesn't have a media player with the codec to read the movie. Why bother to only mention media players …
Re: Vista and DOSBox recorded videos
Posted on 2008-03-22, 13:22
Did you make sure that you stopped the capture before you quit DOSBox? If you just quit DOSBox while capturing then the video will not work. I just tested the latest beta of DOSBox on 2003 64bit and the video plays fine with Windows Media Player and Media Player Classic but does not with VLC. (VLC …

1. DOSBox focus is on DOS games and nothing else. All other PC emulators never exclusively focused on DOS games. The developers of Virtual PC (Connectix) and DOSEmu did do a little bit of work on supporting games but nowhere near the level of DOSBox. 2. LOTS and lots of testing. Thousands of games …

Run the Blood setup program. For SFX use SoundBlaster 16 with Port 220, IRQ 7 and DMA 1 or 5. For Music use General MIDI at port 330.

Download the latest DosBox CVS from my signature. Don't use Daemon Tools. Mount the image directly in DosBox using imgmount. Make sure you mount your hard drive as well as the CDROM and when you do mount the hard drive be sure to use the freesize option with at least a 1gb of free space.

Well you can forget about QEMM and MEMMAKER. Since QEMM will cause compatibility issues with your games and MEMMAKER doesn't do much anyways. As for EMM386 it's old and there are more updated programs such as JEMM: http://www.japheth.de/ Unless you have processors older than a Pentium your going to …
