using ISO's with "boot"?
Posted on 2007-03-21, 15:34
Is it possible to use ISO's with "boot"? I typed the following and I got "Must specify drive letter to mount image at.". I am using DOSBox 0.70. This is what I typed: mount c c:\dos c: imgmount -t hdd 2 d:\[filename].img -size 512,63,16,142 -fs none imgmount -t iso 3 d:\diskimgs\[filename].iso -fs …
Re: frameskip question
Posted on 2006-09-19, 10:00
Sounds like a pretty crappy emulator that times itself by number of frames drawn rather than actually using time. I never use manual frameskip in any emulators anyways. Most game console emulators manage frameskip like that. Or because in game console emulators, "frameskip" is often used …

Re: If you've had to use WINDIB with DosBox. POST HERE

If you set you desktop to 256 colors, you can only use "windib", or else DOSBox won't start at all. If your desktop is set to 16 colors, not even "windib" will work.
Re: HT 0.7.5 viewer doesn't run
Posted on 2005-08-27, 15:19
Actually the error message would have been quite helpful (unhandled illegal opcode message by the extender). They use rdtsc, a pentium-class opcode which is not handled by dosbox (as dosbox is 80386 mainly). Don't really understand why they have to use rdtsc. Does any DOS games use that instruction …
HT 0.7.5 viewer doesn't run
Posted on 2005-08-26, 09:48
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/hte/ht-0.7 … pp-i386.exe.zip After it got CWSDPMI, I still keep getting pagefaults. That happens in any core in DOSBox 0.63, or even in the CVS. It also happens if I run it in MS-DOS 6.22 with the "boot" command.
interesting thing about CPU utilization in games
Posted on 2005-08-26, 09:36
Many games utilize 100% CPU usage even when they don't need that much. For example, I run a game with DOSBox at 2500 cycles, DOSBox utilizes less 30% CPU, and the game seems to run at full speed, but as soon as I increase the cycles, the CPU usage goes up. When I run it in real DOS or in a Windows …

development libraries and MinGW

What kind of develoment libraries should I install in MinGW? Do I have to get a MinGW-specific (package probably ends with -devel-MinGW), or could I use any package the end with -devel?
maybe a problem with the timesync patch
Posted on 2005-08-26, 03:46
When timesynch is enabled, it's impossible to limit the number of cycles (CPU usage doesn't seem to go down).

Re: MT-32 and MPU-401 emulation of the SB16?
Posted on 2005-07-06, 12:56
So that means the MPU-401-to-General MIDI redirection is done by Windows, not the SB16 after all. Sorry......
Re: MT-32 and MPU-401 emulation of the SB16?
Posted on 2005-07-06, 10:26
Directing the whole thing to Windows (or whatever the host OS is) is a much better solution, cause that's pretty much what the SB16 did with the daughterboards. Just re-directing the calls. It's just that an extra option to use the emulated Adlib/Soundblaster for MIDI would be nice. And one had to …
Re: MT-32 and MPU-401 emulation of the SB16?
Posted on 2005-07-06, 09:47
The SB16 emulates the MT-32 and MPU-401 with the FM Synth. DOSBox doesn't seem to emulate this. It redirects MPU-401 to the host MIDI driver instead.

ROM emulation?

Why doesn't MUNT emulate MT-32 ROMs so that it doesn't need an original ROM?
