Re: DOS not showing calculation sheet

That's probably the key phrase here, I believe Megabuild 6 included a printer patch (and many other patches). Standard DOSBox doesn't include printing capabilities. Ahh, but of course. Is there no alternative for that printing patch nowadays aside from vDosPlus? DOSBox-X also includes printing …

Re: FluidSynth MIDI driver

As Rob already stated, Windows builds of DOSBox-X have built-in support of FluidSynth MIDI driver. Set mididevice=fluidsynth and a sound font (via fluid.soundfont option) to enable the built-in FluidSynth feature. A DOSBox-X Windows build that enables the FluidSynth MIDI driver by default is also …

Re: DOSBox ECE (for Windows & Linux)

ant22's pixel perfect patch (activated by using output=surfacepp) has been removed from ECE builds a while ago (around the time SVN started supporting glshaders, iirc) Right now you have 3 alternatives: 1) approximate pixel-perfect results by using SVN/ECE with output=opengl and glshader=sharp 2) …

Re: Compile SVN in macOS?

Further update. I entered this command at the terminal in Big Sur: export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.12 (For my project, I don't need anything older than 10.12.) I then built libpng from source (after uninstalling it from brew) and built SDL from source., following Almeath's guide. I think built …

Re: Compile SVN in macOS?

Just an FYI for anyone interested - I have successfully applied the 3dfx emulation patch to my SVN build and will update Github shortly. The current list of patches is now: - Munt - Glide (with bundled OpenGlide) - 3dfx Voodoo emulation (SDL1) - Nuked OPL3 - 384 ram limit - 8GB img file support I …

Re: DOSBox-X branch

K.A.R.R: DOSBox-X 0.83.11 is already released. The second issue you mentioned earlier was fixed, and for the first issue there is now also a "Paste Clipboard" button in AUTOEXEC.BAT, CONFIG.SYS and 4DOS.INI sections of the Configuration Tool for pasting clipboard contents.

Re: DOSBox-X branch

K.A.R.R.: The second issue is a known issue in version 0.83.10 (“Save” did not work but “Save & Restart” will work), which is already fixed in the latest code and will be in version 0.83.11 which is scheduled to be released in a few days. For the first issue, I think copy and paste in the …

Re: DOSBox-X branch

Ripthron: The MT32 feature in DOSBox-X is based on the latest MUNT 2.4.0 driver. I do not have a real MT32 to try yet, so I am not really sure which one is the incorrect one (need more checking).

Re: DOSBox file locking

DOSBox-X 0.83.10 also supports file locking and other share functions. It is recommended to set “nocachedir=true” and “file access tries=3”. File operations like LFN are supported by DOSBox-X (ver=7.1 or lfn=true) but not vDos. OK - questions - what does LFN stand for? Also, why do you say the vDos …

Re: DOSBox-X branch

Rob: I just tried the Formula 1 demo you mentioned too. If I use its own glide2x.dll file, then it won't even start (a small window quickly pops up and then closes). However, if I use the glide2x.dll file made specifically for Win9x, then the demo seems to play fine in Glide passthrough mode on my …

Re: DOSBox-X branch

Speaking of glide passthrough, I find it unbelievable that I cannot find any glide library for macOS to benefit from that on macOS version of DOSBox. This and the fact that Win9x do not behave well with dynamic core are the only reasons why I halted my tests on it and started to use UTM/QEMU. I do …

Re: DOSBox-X branch

Rob: With the latest code Tomb raider 3dfx running in Voodoo hardware emulation mode shows 30FPS on Windows (SDL1 & SDL2), and because of the increased speed there appears to be no sound issue when running on my Windows system any more. When you have time, could you please check what the FPS will be …

Re: DOSBox-X branch

TheGreatCodeholio: I don't think the Glide passthrough feature actually requires certain ROM area, but according to the current Glide implementation it needs to allocate memory (by calling DOS_GetMemory(5)). If DOSBox-X turns it off then the DOS memory gets unmapped, and the function will simply …

Re: DOSBox-X branch

kjliew: Thanks for the information. I looked at the DOSBox-X code and found that the error message was caused by a previous change related to the memory code. I have already fixed this in the code, so that 3dfx demos should now work with guest DOS/Win9x systems in DOSBox-X. It should be included in …
