I tried both, same behavior either way oddly enough.

I tried the actual glide2x.dll from there in the game and also the emu one renamed to glide2x.dll in the game, same effect with both.

Aren't glide2x_emu.ovl and glide2x.ovl 2 different things though? One emulates it and the other is part of the version that converts Glide calls to OpenGL, thus the former is a lot slower? EDIT: There's a non-emu one too (https://github.com/paalfe/mixedcontent/blob/master/gaming%20(linux)/DOSBox/ …

Tried all output modes, black screen / window with all of them. If I used anything other than opengl or openglnb then I didn't even get the "VOODOO: OpenGL: mode set, resolution 640:480" message.

Ah I see, I thought you meant that the 64bit version was missing the dynarec. I'll try 32bit at some point later then. That config option... kinda helped? I get about 10fps now, so obviously still not great (it's an i7-5775C processor, so not much above it) so I'm wondering if I'm using the wrong …

unfortunately I get about 5fps in Carmageddon so it doesn't look like it was worth it! Did you set voodoo=opengl in dosbox.conf? Carmageddon 3Dfx runs quite well even on my laptop. No, I noticed lots of references to different configuration options for the different patches and couldn't find the …

Used that one in the end so thanks for that. Got it working after lots of hacking about, unfortunately I get about 5fps in Carmageddon so it doesn't look like it was worth it!

The error I keep getting is: pci_bus.cpp:29:27: fatal error: ..\ints\int10.h: No such file or directory I'm seeing the same issue. I've applied the updated patch provided by Yesterplay80 (voodoo_20160825) instead, but still get... pci_bus.cpp:29:27: fatal error: ..\ints\int10.h: No such file or …
Re: DOSBox SVN Builds

Hi all, Was Glide/3DFX support ever merged back into DOSBox mainline? I notice the original (2012?) Glide patch does still successfully apply against DOSBox, but it doesn't build anymore once that's been done (even if you fix the include names). Basically looking at running Carmageddon (in 3DFX mode …

Unfortunately not, I did have that set but it only fires between tracks (I'd imagine it would just break instruments anyway if it did fire at the loop points).

I've tried Sonar, it doesn't support playlisting at all (as it's designed as an editor/DAW, not a player) and it seems to ignore MIDI loop-points on playback, you have to manually set loop-points separately for some unknown reason. So CakeWalk's definitely out.

keropi: Someone else just mentioned that one, unfortunately it doesn't have loop-point support (it can either loop the entire track forever or nothing) so it isn't of any use, otherwise it ticks all the boxes.

Unfortunately that player doesn't seem to have Playlist support and only supports infinite looping (as opposed to "X amount of times before continuing").

Windows MIDI Player with Hardware Support

Hi everyone, I'm trying to find any program that lets me add multiple MIDI files in a playlist, has loop support (e.g. loop X times when loop information is found) and finally supports output to MIDI hardware as opposed to using a soundfont. WinAMP should fulfill the criteria but unfortunately I've …

Yeah, that's what I've been playing around with (in Rosegarden). Turns out my confusion stemmed from the fact that I needed to load the Databank information for the Fantom XR, once I'd done that I could then access all the synth's instruments. Before doing that all I could see was the basic …

Ha, I misread that before and thought it was referring to the original. Thanks for that. Well crap, I didn't realise they had been "remade". Back to the drawing board.

Hi all, So I've got some of my new MIDI hardware now and I'm wondering a few things. If you listen to the Police Quest 1 VGA Roland Fantom XR Soundtrack by Shad0wfax (http://www.midimusicadventures.com/queststudios/digital-soundtracks/pq1/) you'll hear it sounds pretty good. Unfortunately that's not …

Reposting this as I think it got lost, being the last entry on a page: BASSMIDI seems to work generally fine for me (as I use it for MIDI in Foobar) but I do have one issue - I can't open the configuration program on Windows 10. If I try (even as admin) nothing happens. I've uninstalled and …
