Version 0.74.28 is out http://jdosbox.sourceforge.net Added support for 3dfx Ported from MAME Multi-threaded pure software implementation Configurable memory options Supports Voodoo 1 and Voodoo 2, currently only Voodoo 1 works in Win95/98 Disabled by default because it requires PCI support which …

You can serve the jdosbox.jar applet from a server to a client machine and run "mount c c:\games", of course c:\games refers to the the client machine and the applet must be signed. If you are talking about c:\games on the server, then no, that's not possible. The applet runs on the client, not the …

What do you mean local dir isn't working for you? You mean you are running jDosbox as an applet, you want to download, unzip a file on the client machine then run it from there? I have tested that on various mac's and windows machines with different versions of Java. Without knowing more the only …

Hopefully close to making an official release: It is now configurable between a Voodoo 1 and Voodoo 2 with 2MB or 4MB for the frame buffer and 2,4,8 or 16MB for the texture units. The Voodoo 1 works in Windows 95/98 using the same driver that kekko's version uses. I was unable to get Windows to …

Thanks for the stack, based on the address it looks like it was reading the frame buffer. After looking at the spec it seems like I need to implement 16-bit read/writes to the frame buffer.

Here is a demo of some 3dfx stuff I did for the java port. It seems to be working pretty well. I ported directly from Mame and peeked at Kekko's code to get it connected to the Dosbox code. This implements a 12MB Voodoo2 and is 100% implemented in Java (no JNI and no OpenGL). Currently I have been …

My java port runs Linux pretty well now. As for getting Dosbox to run Linux I think the only 2 major hurdles will be Page Fault handling and the IDE controller. Dosbox assumes the page fault will be handled and the program will resume where it left off, this is definitely not true for Windows 98 and …

I'm not sure what about the Dosbox bios Win95 didn't like. I actually tried pretty hard to get it to work before I resorted to trying Bochs BIOS. As for getting Bochs to work, it took some effort, basically loaded bios.bin and video.bin into their addresses, setup the cmos and installed some …

lil_stenly and anyone else trying to run other OS's: Don't use any s3 video drivers, the dosbox s3 video card isn't a complete implementation or my port of it has bugs. Windows 95/98 is the only OS I saw that can use it. Instead use VGA or VBE. lil_stenly, I'll have to try QNX, since I haven't tried …

It has been too long since my last release. The problem is that there is always more to do in the code so I keep coding. I decided to just cut it off now so that I can get some testing and make sure there aren't too many regressions. 0.74.27 Jan 02, 2013 * Added new hardware: IDE, Floppy and PS/2 …

I fixed a bug with the reactos and dsl links. The program wasn't creating ~/.jdosbox if it didn't already exist which prevented the os's from booting up. fronzel: In your first demo you had in the web page. On your second demo you forgot this which resulted in the applet only using 8MB which is the …

Progress Update: Windows XP now installs and runs in Safe Mode. On the Linux front, I'm still have problems with "cp: memory exhausted" on Ubuntu but DSL seems to works. Here is a new demo, this it is running the live cd of Damn Small Linux (DSL). Keep in mind this will probably be pretty slow for …

Thanks fonzel for testing the new release. That was pretty cool to see povvray render in a browser. I see that you self signed jdosbox.jar so that the recompiler would work. If you self sign the other jar that contains the hard disk image you won't get that confusing 2nd dialog that asks you to hit …

Here is a demo showing off ReactOS. The performance isn't great, but it's an interesting achievement. http://jdosbox.sourceforge.net/reactos/reactos.jnlp 1) It requires 256MB of JVM memory in order for ReactOS to use 64MB 2) It will copy the ReactOS disk image to your home directory (~/.jdosbox/ …

divinity: Performance can be tricky. Here are some ideas: 1) The last beta I posted on this board is about 50% faster than the current release when using the recompiling dynamic core. If you are testing it as an applet make sure you are running the newest version and not a cached version. 2) There …

Thank you for sharing your code. I have been messing around with porting parts of it to jDosbox and wanted to share my findings. I messed around with your IDE code and even ported QEMU IDE to java and saw the same thing you did. But I was able to get Win95 to see the IDE when I use the bochs bios. I …

0.74.26 beta Please test if this unsigned jdosbox applet works in full screen. To go into full screen: 1) Press and hold right-alt key 2) While continuing to hold the right-alt key hit the enter key. Hopefully this key combination should work the same as in Dosbox. If full screen doesn't work, or it …
