Re: Experimental VGA patch

Posted on 2010-10-16, 16:25

In regards to "VGAONLY" being the evolution of this work, does this mean that the SVGA variants do not emulate as accurately for purposes of hardware-reliant code like demos? If so, perhaps a footnote in the config file would be helpful.

Re: 3dfx voodoo chip emulation

I have a question. Forgive me if it's redundant with something mentioned in the numerous pages here.. I assume that the goal here is to create a higher compatibility partially accelerated layer for Glide - i.e., you're implementing more than most Glide wrappers do as far as hardware emulation goes, …

Re: Win9x + VDMSound **ALPHA**

Posted on 2010-10-16, 16:14

I assume that this project (specifically the Win9x version) is dead now. Is the source for the latest version up somewhere? If not, I urge you to release it. I do see that the source is there for Alpha 1 and 2, but Alpha 3 is the latest and there is no source posted in the first post.

I'm not a fool, I realize that at best you'd get an uncompilable mess, but at least I could give it a go then. As it stands there's not even anything to edit, it just "doesn't see SDL".. Anyway I'll revisit this when SDL 1.3 goes stable and try again.

Re: Multiple Monitor Control

Well I expected it to throw errors or refuse to compile DOSBox, I can't even get DOSBox to ./configure because of it not detecting the presence of SDL - SDL refused to make install, meaning that SDL is kinda wonky all on it's own before bringing DOSBox into the equation at all. Perhaps we need to …

Re: Multiple Monitor Control

Apparently SDL 1.3 can definitely do it (http://old.nabble.com/fullscreen-video-on-2nd-monitor-%28windows%29-td27200533.html), but not 1.2. However, I can't submit a patch because I don't code in C/C++, not yet anywho. If I could I would have just made some kind of personal hacked build by now. "You …

Multiple Monitor Control

Posted on 2010-10-05, 16:31

DOSBox should be capable of going fullscreen on any monitor instead of only the primary one. Example scenario: You have dual LCDs, one 4:3 and one 16:9. You want to play a DOS game fullscreen and want it on the 4:3 monitor, but it's your secondary. You can swap primaries, run it, and then swap back, …

Re: Pandemonium 2 on Win7x64?

Posted on 2010-09-19, 04:05

in Windows
I have it (and Pandemonium original) installed on my Win7-64 box right now working fine. All I did was use a glide wrapper and mount the ISO in Daemon Tools (on demand from a batch file so it's only loaded when needed). iirc I used dgVoodoo. Edit: Since after reading some of the lower posts (sorry …

Fullscreen on another monitor?

Posted on 2010-09-19, 03:32

I'd like to hook a CRT up as a secondary monitor and dedicate it to DOSBox. Ideally I could also dedicate a keyboard and mouse to it, but I understand that that's a bit crazy. Anywho, I can't get DOSBox to go fullscreen on any non-primary display. I read around online and found precious little on …

Re: vdmsound on windows 7 x86?

Posted on 2010-09-07, 00:24

VDMSound works fine on Win7-x86, I use it on my netbook. I installed XP video drivers in order to allow DOS apps to go fullscreen (and get a small performance boost in other things). Without the XP video drivers it's not worth much, as without fullscreen support 99% of games will not run.

Re: Dos application for mining pit monitoring system -- URGENT --

Posted on 2010-06-06, 19:50

in DOS
I would far sooner trust DOSBox than a full VM - it's way more stable and responsive in my experience. That said I'd just use a hardware DOS machine for something that serious - DOS can run on modern hardware fine if you can't find a 486 or something, and drivers can be found for most hardware under …
