They are spurious How far are your pcs away from each other ? IPX (historically) has been designed to be used on LAN. Some IPX games expect LAN type response times.

you can use 128 entries if you want. Only the first bit is in the current method required to be set to 1. (so you have 7 bits available) the draw routine probably can be made a bit more efficient, but please start from the SVN source as that has some bank fixes.

Thanks for the reports. kelly456 and DrLogan are "older" bots. They registered at 5 march. So there might be some more of those becoming active in the future

dosbox its algorithm, while called a palette implementation is not that different from you would expect though; it (pre)calculates 80 colours and stores them in the upper bits of the current vga palete. you can find the 2 pieces in src/hardware/vga_other.cpp: update_cga16_color and src/hardware/vga_ …

That hue offset is emulating a particular clone behaviour around an unused bit. KQ1 booter benefits from it.

To clarify, I am more leaning towards a keycombination to toggle composite/rgb rendering. This combo should work for both modes (4 and 6), but I don't want to drop the current autodetection in mode 6. A specific monitor type is something that is being considered, but not anytime soon.

It are more than 16 colours of course. If were exactly 16 colours then the red bleeding and thing like that didn't exist. (that are precalculated) The mode 4 is indeed a thing to consider, but at the moment I am not really willing to add another machine type.

Unlikely going to work. DOS games and how a mouse works in DOS are not really compatible with tablet + pen.

Not all commands work. The mapperfile might indeed not work. I don't think any of us bothered to implement it.
Re: Settlers II Gold mouse problem
Posted on 2012-04-15, 14:58
Interesting patch. I think that in a real mouse driver, there are no floats used for the mickeys/position, but there are fractional movement counters, so it boils down the same thing. The game is happy with a flipping mickey counter ? (when it becomes to large it will now flip). The patch changes …
Re: Constructor not interpreting mouse input

sensitivity=200 basicly doubles mouse movement input data that dosbox receives. Interesting.. Would in a normal function situation, lowering the sensitivity reproduce the problem that appears with a high polling rate ?

Thanks. Always nice to see a different implementation. From a quick look, gamma would be easy to add to the dosbox code as it can go into precalculation function.

Which Operating system do you use ? You don't need any codecs to record video, only to display them. Check the status screen (the other window) for more information if you press the key combo. If nothing is reported and you are using Linux/Mac OS X, be sure that this key combination is send to …

I don't have 0.74 installed on this linux machine, but I can confirm the problem in 0.73, but it works in the current SVN. It's either fixed or depends on the compiler used.
