I've done it before. 😁 It runs ok, but slow (with no dynarec, obviously). The biggest problem was mapping keys to the controller for me, so I didn't bother. Not terribly much you can play at that speed.

No, I've only just heard of these Omega drivers. I am using official Catalysts, although I do have rage3d tweak installed to supplement them for overclocking purposes. I have not noticed any difference in compatability due to this.

Addendum: I thought that the trace in my prev post was enough, but just in case I followed your instructions completely, and while gdb didn't show any code, the error happens at line 320 in SDL_ohqthread.h.

Hmm, this one is odd indeed. It crashes dosbox with each internal video mode change. Debugger gives an odd response also: Program received signal SIGTRAP, Trace/breakpoint trap. [Switching to thread 1700.0xf10] 0x7c901231 in _libwinmm_a_iname () (gdb) warning: HEAP[dosbox.exe]: warning: Invalid …

It segfaults within SDL which then deploys its parachute, so I don't know if it would tell you much in GDB. Dosbox doesn't really crash. Btw, I'm running a Pentium 4 (Celeron) and a Radeon 9550 with new Catalyst drivers. In Windows 2000 SP4, I should add!

Thanks Moe, that last update fixed most of the bugs, but I still can't use fullscreen mode properly. It sometimes works in SCUMMVM (like when I set a sclaing factor of 2, or don't set the fullres) but it just locks dosbox. Also, sets a resolution that is way higher than my desktop res by default, …

Thanks Moe! Now I can compile successfully with your new patch, but there are other problems... 1.) Fullscreen still doesn't work. It seems to just freeze after changing to the new video mode in my Win2k. Has to be killed. 2.) Graphical errors in ScummVM. Bits of the screen are missing, and only …

bkman, you need to install sdl 1.3.x branch. http://www.libsdl.org/cvs/SDL-1.3.tar.gz or, cvs -d :pserver:guest@libsdl.org:/home/sdlweb/libsdl.org/cvs co -r branch_1_3_x SDL12 I followed the instruction in the readme and already checked it out from the CVS, so I don't know what the problem is.

Does anyone have a build of SDL.dll with openghq that works? I have not had much success with building it using MinGW.. Edit: Perhaps I need to set the path of the windows opengl library...? Any clues how I might do that so that ./configure picks it up?

Wow, thanks! That did the trick. My card is not the best, but I can run games at 3X scale with a frameskip of one quite well, and it looks fantastic! I'd imagine that cards with more powerful shaders would have no trouble with this. Also, it definitely faster than the software hq2x by about 40% on …
