Re: DOSBox-X branch

in DOSBox Patches
So does this mean that there is nothing I can do about my audio issues then? TheGreatCodeholio mentioned on DOSBox-X's Discord channel a few days ago that he thinks it is due to the way DOSBox (and by extension DOSBox-X) is coded to handle SB emulation in 1ms increments. This works well for most …

Re: DOSBox Game Launcher (DOSBox Frontend)

in DOSBox General
I have a small suggestion for the DBGL search engine... I'm reviewing my games database and back in the day I marked many games with (Shareware) in the title, to reflect I wasn't sure they were full versions. However, when I make searches in MobyGames this results in many wrong results. So my …

Re: Fantavision aspect ratio

Fantavision is being played during this LGR video, if you want to see what it looks like on real vintage hardware: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhBkx9Z1JQw However, even on vintage hardware you typically had horizontal and vertical adjustments, as such you could stretch the image one way or …

Re: DOSBox-X branch

I would recommend trying the regular Sound Blaster 16 (sb16). Windows 98 should already have the files to enable plug-and-play installation. There is no advantage to using the sb16 over the sb16 vibra in dosbox-x. Rather the contrary, it makes the Win9x installation process slightly more …

Re: DOSBox-X branch

in DOSBox Patches
There can be many reasons for audio hiccups. To name a few... It could be that your PC simply cannot keep up with the emulation requirement. It could also be that the audio is being synced by the program/game to the emulated video output. So unless your host output runs at the same speed, you will …

Re: VIDEO - 3dfx voodoo emulation (SDL1)

in DOSBox Patches
DOSBox-X actually passes Intel's MCPDIAG.EXE tests... And it supports different FPU generations. https://github.com/joncampbell123/dosbox-x/pull/3415 Regarding 3dfx, DOSBox-X implements enough of PnP, such that the 3dfx voodoo is properly detected in Win9x and works. Either in OpenGL mode, or with …

You can specify the location of the config file with the -conf option. Just run `dosbox-x -help` for a list of options. In addition, if there is a config file called "dosbox.conf" in your current working directory, it will automatically be used. No need for even using the -conf option.

Re: DOSBox-X branch

in DOSBox Patches
Thanks all for the info, like to keep it simple so I'll stick to image files for transferring stuff for now. On a side note can anyone explain why when in the guest os under the dosbox-x drive menu all the drives are "grayed out"? That is a known limitation. It is because the DOSBox-X drive letters …

Re: Theme Hospital - speed issues

I have the game setup in DBGL and it works just fine with DOSBox-X without copying any files. Here is my autoexec config section. Nothing special about it. [autoexec] mount C "Theme_Hospital" imgmount D "Theme_Hospital/CD/Theme_Hospital_1997.cue" -t iso C: cd \HOSPITAL HOSPITAL.EXE exit As to time …

Re: DOSBox-X branch

in DOSBox Patches
Try: mount e d:\ -t floppy where e is the name of the drive to call it and d:\ is the drive as Windows sees it. That is a folder mount, and will not work with a guest OS as such. But starting with the latest DOSBox-X release, there is now support for dynamically converting a folder mount into a FAT …

buckeye wrote on 2022-08-01, 15:24: New to Dosbox-x and got windows 98 running through it on a win10 system. Question I have is what is the procedure to get usb sticks to interact with it? Install usb drivers via an image file? Can't seem to find any info on it so maybe it's a no go. There is no …

Re: DOSBox Game Launcher (DOSBox Frontend)

in DOSBox General
I think we can forget about my DOSBox-X issue, it seems that some builds of DOSBox-X are to blame and not DBGL. I've been also testing my other DBGL profiles with accents in the pathnames and all seem to work. I just found another problematic one, however: "Asterix: Operation Getafix". Either …

Re: Control F10

in DOSBox General
Hi Guys, I am a woman, not guy. I really don't like it when people think that all programmers and all electronics are boys. "Hi colleagues" or "Hi to all" will be more appropriate... But it is completely unnecessary on forums and chats. "Guys" in English is commonly used as a gender-neutral term. …
