This is no trading board, sorry. Maybe you can post the error message that you get.

Paging 😀 Have a look at PAGING_GetPhysicalPage() defined in paging.h maybe something could be added that queries the lin2phys mapping when a new memory access happens, caching the page if it is known.

Seems fine for me, but it requires to be run from a: so do something like "mount a c:\dosgames" or something.

Yes, but if my asm conversion is wrong at all, well no guarantees 😉 But it should be fine if the disassembly looks ok.

Try something like the following, but be sure to check the disassembly for correctness, and maybe test it in the debugger as well. void outportb(Bit32u portid, Bit8u value) { __asm__ volatile ( "movl %0,%%edx \n" "movb %1,%%al \n" "outb %%al,%%dx " : : "r" (portid), "r" (value) : "edx", "al" ); } …

> as this will still produce artifacts as has been demonstrated. But it sounds better, at least with the sound clips provided, so would this be a simple way to get it a bit better, or does it create unwanted side effects?

Don't know what that /u does, might or might not be enough to fully disable the mouse. In either case try to find older versions of mouse drivers, msmouse worked fine for me (newer msmouse not). If you can compile the dosbox sources you could remove that revectors the mouse interrupts on gfx mode …

vc stuff has to be rechecked anyways, noted the missing lib as well. Thanks for noting.

In the next version you can use the cycles-up/cycles-down keys to reduce processor load when cycles=max.

Was thinking about the memory access functions, that is if you got one that largely uses custom functions (several graphics modes do) this might outweight …

Could somebody who has this game fiddle a bit with the memsize= entry and see roughly what values actually work? Thanks.

> Skipping samples without interpolation is evil Yes, but looking at your changes i just wondered why interpolating between [x] and [x+1] would be any better then, as the interval might be larger than 1 (though this might be just wrong, i have no idea how that gus sampling really works).
Re: Stack segment not present
Posted on 2007-01-13, 21:33
Sorry, didn't look at it yet. But you can browse the dosbox sources, there you'll find asm blocks where you can compare the both assembler types, like this: #if defined (_MSC_VER) __asm { __asm finit __asm fsave dyn_dh_fpu.state[0] __asm fstcw dyn_dh_fpu.host_cw } #else __asm__ volatile ( "finit \n" …

Hm i can't hear a difference, though it definitely sounds different when comparing gus sampling against sb sampling (might be correct though). Was using cubic player, and don't have good speakers here, but what midi player did you use?

No, you got to type this before starting the game. Like this: set TEMP=.\ skynet

Well the at&t style asm (gcc) is different from the intel syntax (msvc) so it needs a bit rewriting.

Re: No Sound
Posted on 2007-01-13, 11:56
Delete your old dosbox.conf, start up dosbox and type "config -writeconf dosbox.conf". That's in the readme btw. dosbox emulates the sound so sound doesn't reach vdmsound anyways (sort of). Saving, well maybe some directory is missing, some files have been left read-only, just be creative.

It's not really possible to find a low number of games which, when pgo'd, would not have a lot other games behave quite bad. There are simply too many factors, like graphics modes (if you have one game that requires the custom memory access and which outweights all other memory access, you'll get …
