I'm almost speechless. Should I lock this?

I want to know how to code so i could do that coding. Can someone please show me a tutorial to coding.

Look at google for "c tutorial" or "c++ tutorial".

Why do you want to run 0.58 on ancient pcs?

[edit: removed some posting, be nice to each other 😉 ]

C++ is a bit confusing. I think i will just do my other plan and mix coding languages. A mix of java and sdl coding should work. How do you delete parts of coding? My plan is to remove a lot of things from the dosbox source and add some of the retro applets source into dosbox thus increasing cga support. The problem is retro applet is coded in java and dosbox is coded in sdl.

The cga emulation of dosbox 0.70 should be fine, just use that.
And deleting code is as much as deleting lines of the sources.

Sure. Mark it and press 'delete'. 😈

Erm yes, that's what deleting lines roughly describes.

Oh, sure! Now this version of dosbox will be as fast as a lightning, certainly! Java is famous for its incredible speed. This is the reason why open office is so f****** fast!

Why don't you use gw-basic right from the start? It's easy to learn, it's like real ms-dos (well, a part of ms-dos) and "famous" for its speed.

Why is it I have not yet thought of writing my own version of dosbox myself? It should be very very easy.

AND I CAN DO SOME CODING ALREADY! LOOK AT THIS:

1Program hello
2
3begin
4write('hello');
5readln;
6end.

I guess this makes your jaws drop to the floor, doesn't it? 🤣 🤣 🤣

let's just let him do it and not burden him more with our sarcasm. Abyss will find out on his own eventually.

I leanred that mixing programming languages is not a good idea.

I made a game though. This game has nothing to do with doom although it's called doomzzt. It's a zzt game. It does not include zzt. I had some big problems with the game early on so that's why it's version 1.3.

Ah, that reminds me to release the next version of my DOSBox frontend the next week(s). 😎

maybe combine it with 0.71 (date wise)

Is it true or just a joke?

The original had some bugs that prevented it from being completed. I never thought it was possible to get problems like that on zzt games before i made doomzzt which has nothing to do with doom.

The db binary isn't included in it - but if there are no new functions (as a bugfix release tells), it should be supported w/o frontend code changes.
But my frontend still miss some functions, so a further update is still required...
(and maybe adjustments are possible then)

I was thinking of releasing it on the same day. Might be fun 😉
Dunno 😀 rcblanke created a special 0.70 version of his frontend as well.
