E3M1 and E2M9 are the same track. As are E2M7 and E3M7 (although there is a minor, possibly accidental difference between the MIDI scores).

Thanks for see my mistake!!!

In my notes i dont have this two levels have same track, and must be my fault

I will doubl check the music, and if same like you said, i will correct my post with changes @ViTi95

EDIT: I think this will be correct, if someone can re check, will be great

I've updated the testing release with fixes for Doom2, TNT and Plutonia audio-cd music tracks (now they start as they should) and fix the Hercules automap feature to properly revert the Hercules card to text mode.

Thanks a lot VITi95. Hercules now switches to text mode correctly, but random characters remain on the screen. Maybe also clean the screen of Hercules? I also want to draw your attention to the fact that in hercmap mode, when the map is on, the FPS counter is displayed with artifacts. This does not interfere, but to achieve perfection it would be nice to fix it.
Thank you.

I've remapped the AudioCD tracks for Doom, Ultimate Doom, Doom II, TNT and Plutonia following the DoomWiki details, all of them should fit on regular 80 minute CDs. Also have fixed the non-cleared Hercules VRAM on exit (I still have to check the FPS counter issue).

This night I'll upload another test release so you can test the changes.

EDIT: Uploaded new test executable https://github.com/viti95/FastDoom/releases/d … oom_0.9.3a3.zip

AudioCD tracks are mapped in the function S_MapMusicCD (https://github.com/viti95/FastDoom/blob/396f5 … /s_sound.c#L132)

Hi!! thanks a lot, is amazing!! tested Ultimate DOom 1 works amazing, this last build solve music order

Doom 23 tracks are less than 54min

Tomorrow i will test Doom2

For VITi95.
Now clearing the Hercules screen is fine, thanks.
Today I discovered that in hercmap mode with map is on, the problem is not only with the FPS counter. If you play in full screen, then there are no problems at all. If you reduce the window a little, then not only the FPS counter, but also any other messages that fall into the border area are not updated correctly, but overlap each other. I hope this information will help you solve the problem.
Also, pressing F1 in any mode crashes the game for me.
Thank you.

I've tested in 86box and F1 key press on Hercules automap mode doesn't crash for me, but in fact there is a bug on rendering with screen border and Hercules automap enabled, it doesn't get refreshed as it should, which I'll fix. Thanks for finding it out. I wonder why it crashes on F1 key press for you, can you look which WAD version do you have? Also, what executable are you using?

I am using UltimateDoom V1.9 and FastDoom 0.9.3a3 (fdoom.exe). Real harware is 386dx40, opti495slc, 32 Mb, 0ti-087, Hercules clone, AWE64.

ViTi95б, I'm very sorry, this is my mistake, I forgot to rename the WAD file to Doomu. After renaming with F1 there are no problems. Sorry to bother you.

@ViTi95 today i return home, and tested in my 486, latest version, but i face a problem, the music dont stop, just continue until finish

For example, open doom, intro music, i select new game, and still the intro until finish, and then, start music of e1m1.

standar Mscdex + IDE CDrom. Regular DOS CD players read the CD fine, the music orders are ok

Another small problem, doom dont load first time, always give a "No AudioCD" second time i open, works fine

thanks a lot!!!!

I've uploaded a new executable, it should fix Hercules automap border errors and the change between AudioCD tracks ingame. I've started testing on 86box since DosBox-X is not good enough (again, sigh...). @theelf What IDE CD-ROM driver and CD drive do you have?

Hi!!! wow, fast work

this work PERFECT!!! i tested all levels of ultimate doom, still need to test doom2, plutonia, etc but im working right now, and is a little difficult

Matshushita CR-585
driver: VIDE-CDD https://www.vogonswiki.com/index.php/VIDE-CDD.SYS
mscdex del DOS 7.0 y SHSUCDX

Works great in real DOS, because small delay of CDROM the music start perfect, not like in DOSBox that the music start before level

The problem that not detect audiocd remains, same happen in my two computers i tested, 486 and pentium 3, first time always complain no audiocd, second time works fine

Great, at least CD track changes are working. Does the first time AudioCD initialization error happen on both MSCDEX and SHSUCDX? I'll upload a more verbose test release to check were it fails. I'm guessing there is an error in the MSCDEX initialization process, but only happening on real hardware is difficult to replicate the issue for me (again not being able to access my testing hardware is killing me, as neither DosBOX-X nor 86box have this issue).

Hi! yes, happen both mscdex ans shsucd, and with other drivers too. A verbose buid will help, i test as soon you upload, thanks a lot

I dont like PC emulation, i never feel is accurate

Is not like emulating a megadrive that if i connect to CRT using RGB and i use a official pad, i dont notice any difference from real console... with PC, whatever emu I use, dosbox, pcem, bochs, etc etc nothing feels real

More verbose testing release https://github.com/viti95/FastDoom/releases/d … oom_0.9.3a5.zip. It doesn't change how MSCDEX is initialized but will show a more detailed message on what failed.

I would suggest testing with MSCDEX and OAKCDROM.SYS (or GSCDROM.SYS) first just to make sure that everything works fine. Had problems using VIDE-CDD.SYS on a LG CED-8120B CD-RW drive regarding audio tracks in a real computer.

Agreed, PC emulation isn't fully accurate compared to consoles or home computers like the C64 where there is some serious effort into emulating the all the quirks they have.

Yes, one of areas where i found less acurate PC emulators is video. For example dosbox is too dificult to use correct refresh rates, VGA 320x200 at 70hz, EGA/CGA 320x200 at 60hz, dosbox cant use correct modelines, at least the last build i tested

Oops that shouldn't happen 😅. I think I'll write the log to a file and check the whole process better. This weekend I'll be very busy, but will try to get it as soon as possible.

Yes, i realize something was not fine in this verbose build 😀 jaja ok, i will be bussy too until sunday im out for work, but anyways i carry with me my pentium 2 laptop, just in case we need to test jeje
