Re: Building a statically linked dosbox on VC++ dotnet

Well, in my four years experience with Exult (Ultima 7 engine), more things broke with the msvc version than with mingw. This link doesn't really say much. Overall in my limited experience Mingw proved better than cygwin and not the other way round.

uh oh, you are hijacking an ancient thread for a "how to get game xyz running" and that in the developer section. You better use the search and respect the posting guidelines.

yes, of course but there is still no 32-bit support 😀 Look into the Dosbox guides, there is a guide on how to set this up.

The waveform-cache is recreated every time if (and only if) munt can't write to the directory containing the ROMs. Ah, I see, as a security minded person I'm running Windows as normal user and not as Administrator. So no write access to the system32 dir (where the roms get installed to). Something …

Moe, I would agree except for two reasons: - The standalone driver is Windows-only, while the patch allows MT-32 emulation on any platform supported by DOSBox - The standalone driver is more out of date than the Munt CVS Now that I tried the driver I'm pretty sure about a third reason: starting up …

I mostly wanted to be able to build newest versions whenever development might pick up again. But I'll try the driver 😀

Hi, since I've already posted this in the wrong thread, I'll post again here 😀 Could someone update these patches for current CVS of both Dosbox and Munt?

Hmm, I may not have worded it correctly, I meant if the patch still works with current CVS of both Munt and Dosbox. Seems I should just try it and answer this myself :) If I understand correctly you just used the old builds and the old Dosbox 0.63/driver combo. Oh wow, I'm such a dumbass. Of course …

I'm trying to install something from a floppy image in dosbox and it is not working. Neither NC or Windows show the correct content of the disk and executing the main exe in Windows 3.11 is not working. The content is correctly shown with dir at the dosbox prompt. When booting from hdd image and …

I licensed it ages ago and it is working correctly when I run it from a boot image (with Windows 3.x installed) but never got it to work correctly when I …

for hdd boot you HAVE to set xms and ems to false in dosbox.conf. And you have to add Device=himem.sys to config.sys. You can even write Device=himem.sys /testmem:off to speed things up (you need to pint eh line to the actual location of himem.sys though)

thanks Hunter for taking your time to explain it to me. ...compiling...compiling...compiling... Damn it takes some time to compile that 😀 Edit #2: And what did I learn? SDL CVS is not stable 😀 (with last CVS I get errors when compiling Dosbox) Now lets go back to 1.2.9

is this with the first mentioned hack? I knew about that hack but forgot all about it, so could anyone refresh my memory (especially since that sdl compile I did back then has disappeared from my computer)
