I have written a patch that fixes this behaviour. But I am not used to CVS. Is there a way do create a patch just like "svn diff > my patch.diff" does ?

Pinball Fantasies uses 2 palettes simultaneously (top half and bottom half of the screen) in its intro screen but dosbox does not render it properly. I have tryied machne=vgaonly but it did not fix the issue.

Why would the FSF care that some person/company is, or is not, violating DOSBox's license? Because they are committed to the free software cause in general. I suppose that any issue related to the subject could be of their interest. At least for informative reasons, but possibly also for taking …

This is the "no-scroll" patched dosbox 0.65 compiled for windows. Thanks, Daniel! You will need SDL.dll msvcp71.dll and msvcr71.dll in order to run this.

Does Psycho work for you with the non-patched dosbox 0.65 ? This patch will only work on games that use the hardware scrolling technique. The only thing that we need is to define what is the resolution of the entire table for the desired game. Miki maus says that he got Psycho working, so we can …

How did you accomplish that? Are the party lights always located in the same memory block, which you read datafrom and send to your leds? PFant uses one color pallete index for each light, then when it wants to turn a light on or off it simply alters the rgb of that color in the pallete. I doesnt …

I am challenging you all to come up with good ideas of how to improve (in hacky ways) pinball games by modifying the emulator. If you dont know how to implement it , that's ok.
