Re: XCom 2 and 3

I am using Dosbox .65 and have Windows Vista. The first part might be solvable, ie. upgrading to dosbox 0.70. After that be sure you configure the sound correctly, at first maybe try with nosound.

Re: 640k free mem

in DOSBox General
You'll never get the "640k free" because the interrupt table has to be somewhere. Most programs that output a message about not enough low memory have some underflow. Try loadfix before starting the prog.

Re: Dosbox commands case sensitive

in DOSBox General
Unhandled settings have a default, thus the cycles option being case sensitive results in cycles=3000 if you set it to MAX, FUNNYVAL, invalid_thing and others. I'm sure you can work around it by not using capslock when entering max.

Re: 0.70 for Mac Freezing

On ia32, adding a long int and a float is done as doubles internally. On amd64, adding a long int and a float is done as floats internally. (Tested with gcc 4.1 in linux.) Thanks for the explanation, makes sense 😀 Also thanks for looking into the issue, as well as your patch.

Re: DosBOX shows debug message in-game screen

in DOSBox General
SVGA is a "standard" of graphics cards, dosbox sticks to the s3 definition. If the game doesn't provide a specific s3 implementation you can't use another one as you did (trident). Don't they have a VESA selection? That's the unified standard for higher resolutions. If not try ykhwong's build, there …

Re: 0.70 for Mac Freezing

I can't provocate any (significant) precision issues if the integer value stays in the 32bit range, even if using Bit64u+float. It DOES result in a precision loss in the range that is critical for the vret timing if the integer value is about 10^3 times the maximal value of the 32bit unsigned …

Re: vdos32 - glidos ...

in GliDOS General
Maybe have a look at the addressing in x86_64 mode to see if you find a feasible way to use it for x86 addressing. This might be a thing that can't be done without some sort of code scanning/translation.
