Indeed, that's a strange sentence Privateer is printing out when IPX is enabled ;) However, the game plays a lot lot more faster already and is almost playable fine on my box. Let's say that by the time I have finished WC2 and its special operations... Btw, Alkarion, I tend to prefer the Sabre (or …

OK magamo added the loadfix fix to the database, however it's hard to spot after all the "doesn't work" messages 😀 Btw, Alkarion, judging from your avatar pic, I guess you must be quite happy to get it working 😉

Yeeepeeee!!! WC2 is working! At last I can replay one of my real favorite games, one of the first I got after buying a sound card (anyone remember the sound galaxy sound card anyway? adlib, sb, disney and a fourth card compatibility...). Btw, it's true that loadfix isn't something we think about …

Ouch that's true! I used to play midi files (as well as mod files of course) on CP when I had a good old SoundBlaster, so I didn't notice that. However even with the -video switch, playmidi is still too much for my poor athlon (and has sound saturation sometimes). :sad: Luckily it's almost the only …

I use Cubic player 1.7 with its bundled dos4gw 1.6. It works quite well except that it hangs at exit (which requires a Ctrl+F9 to do something else 😦 )

Since it's asked so frequently (viva international keyboard layouts), it might be worth a new post in dosbox guides 😉

These features look like they're developping nicely, and that sure promises some great nights in a close future :happy: To make it easy to interconnect different dosboxes, a default port sure is an advantage (it can get boring to keep a list of friends' favorite ports). However the default ports …

Is it SDL_ASYNCBLIT, like mentioned in SDL/SDL_video.h ?

Oups sorry I forgot to log on before expressing my joy at hearing fluid sound 😊

Humm... I have the same problem now, but as I switched from kernel 2.4 to kernel 2.6 and from a 1 month old dosbox to 0.61 at the same time, I can't tell which one is responsible for this sound problem. I used to run OMF 2097 without any problems before, but now (as in many other games), sound is …

That's strange, I have an athlon 900MHz with 128Mo of RAM, and I can run OMF 2097 and Wolf3D on linux without any problem (frameskip 1, cycles: 5000). Are you using some heavy window manager like recent KDE/Gnome?

Well the mididemo.bat was really choppy on my little athlon, but I found an old version of a program called cubic player that can uses GUS to play MIDI files: the audio output is quite pretty! 😀 Now the next free hours of the week will be dedicated to zone 66 with GUS sound 😁

Using full core (dosbox 0.61), the game does not stop after destroying the second wave of ennemies: I could ask permition to land to concordia, but trying to land just segfaulted dosbox itself with: Fatal signal: Segmentation Fault (SDL Parachute Deployed)
