Is there a way to get DOSBox to recognise this behaviour? it should be doable with a TSR that hooks int 9 or int 33h and fake mouse clics when a specific key is pressed. but... Perhaps it is possible to remap one of the keyboard buttons to the right mouse button? that's exactly what the menu key ( …

a program that wants to load other program must first reduce the memory that DOS has assigned to it and keep only what it needs. this qb program and its stack sure fits in 1 KB, so bx = 1024/16 and call int 21/4a to modify allocated memory block. somethin' like this... mov bx,1024/16 ; new requested …

- Search memory for values. you save a few "bpm segment:offset && memdumpbin segment:0 ffff && xxd MEMDUMP.BIN |grep $values" , pretty handy if you ask me!

For 1: 1 CD backups, a device with a firmware that does not correct checksum read errors would be a good starting point. If the device behaves like this, it would be the closest thing to KryoFlux for CDs that I can think of.

I would not expect a .bin file containing both data and audio tracks to use mode1/2048. All sectors in a source file should be the same size, so the data track should be mode1/2352 (or mode2/2352, sometimes) to match the audio tracks... Otherwise how do you determine the file offset given by the …

Yes please, edge cases are welcome. I think I read out the CUE file 'MODE' to determine if its an ISO or BIN. EDIT: I did :D grep -q 'MODE2/2048' "$cue" && exit 102 Well, I'm afraid it's not enough. :( Pinball Dreams II (echo ZVhvRE9TIHY0 |base64 -d) has this CUE: FILE "PDdlx.bin" BINARY TRACK 01 …

I've used my script to convert many many BIN/CUEs, so I've come across a few edge cases. Maybe that's useful to you. For example, Pinball Dreams II (echo ZVhvRE9TIHY0 |base64 -d) and others are really ISO/CUE. If you don't control it, the script will fail because bchunk writes the data track to …

It's actually that Windows is more forgiving. In Windows both of the following work: cd "My Directory\My Subdirectory" and: cd "My Directory"\"My Subdirectory" In Linux, only the first is valid. Actually in Linux both are valid, as long as you use the Linux dir separator / cd "My Directory/My …

Just NOP the opcodes you don't want. For example, if you have this instructions: 267E:6CE3 8BD7 mov dx,di 267E:6CE5 8BDE mov bx,si 267E:6CE7 1E push ds To skip "mov dx,di" -> SM 267E:6CE3 90 90 To skip "push ds" -> SM 267E:6CE7 90

I see why ES should be preserved, but even if ES is destroyed, the loader works nevertheless. Even if I comment entire EXEC_INFO it still works :confused: , so I'm leaning toward DOSBox doing some magic and requiring only DS:DX pointing to the ASCIIZ filename. I bet this wouldn't end well in pure …
