Re: Is there any relationship between CPU cycles and Machine speed (in mhz)?
Posted on 2010-05-21, 19:18
Officially, there is no such relation. But I've run the Check It tests and Norton tests, and I got some values to match 4.77, 8 and 10 MHz 8086 PCs... but I've lost the data. And inofficially, there's no relation as well. Depending on the instruction set the benchmark is using, you can get any " …

As i already said, no matter how many manuals you consult you will NEVER get to the interesting parts which are the bits and pieces that were not documented for a reason (bugs and backwards incompatibilities or bug fixes of old bugs that should not surface publicly). Did peterferrie run hardware …

You're aware that the CPUs were not built after the reference manual?

Oh sorry, I didn't see you're not the original poster. You may want to try a VM (virtual machine) like vmware, vpc, virtualbox if you can't get it working in dosbox using the regular installation of both apps.

Since you get the same thing in a VM as well, you simply installed it wrong or forgot some integration step of that application. Check the app's docs.

I'll try that, the first time I saved the new .AVI that's what I believe I did You most likely saved it WITH processing but without compression, the stream copy should directly copy whatever codec/compression was used before for that stream, so not changing the file size (minus effects from the …

Maybe we should just skip all the releases and just post megabuilds.

first in game screen, first level, what's the difference Past first level means I'd have to play through that thing to see if it gets a black screen, as it worked fine (like for ripsaw) up to the gameplay action.

please read again carefully, i said `it only goes into the main menu and then the first screen of the game` Yes and this is, like i said (you read it carefully), different from a "black screen after the first level".

Since this was posted after the release it should be obvious.
Re: Remapping Mouse Buttons/Axis?
Posted on 2010-05-16, 19:46
Does DOSBox have any way to change the Mouse events like it does Keyboard events? Nope, only in-game modification works if the game allows it. But it sounds strange that the game configuration is lost when restarting dosbox, how did you install it?

Please retry the same thing with DBGL again, and check if you can reproduce the error.

In your first posting you say it doesn't advance after the menu screen (i really hope you didn't just press the wrong keys...), now you say it results in a black screen after the first level. What's right? Did you alter something? Maybe post a directory listing.

Mainly a problem of terminology imo, 320x200 is of course not 4:3 but targets at a non-square pixel output of a 4:3 monitor. Somebody may be come up with nice description of all that and enlarge the wiki 😀

Actually the game runs fine in dosbox, dunno where your problem is, can walk around nicely.
