It just crashes on launch for me on two different machines.

Thats strange, What does it say when it crashes? Works fine for me.

What machine, could be a Windows version problem?

Erik.

Ok, found a problem on my XP system, it just terminates with a acces violation in the kernel32.dll. Doesn't seem to be a problem on a 2000 Pro system. Will have to reinstall Delphi on that machine to figure out what goes wrong.

Will be a time till i can test the program on a Win98 system, need to get it from under the dust.

Erik.

Yup, found the problem to be with hyperthreaded systems and multicores, will post the new version this night. Will be in a few minutes.

Erik.

Ok here is the fixed version,

I'll let Gadler put up the new version. In the meantime here is it by post.

Erik.

I'll give it a try. Both of my machines are XP, one SP1 and the other SP2.

Yup, found the problem to be with hyperthreaded systems and multicores

OK, that explains it. Both are dualies, one an Opteron dual work station and the other a Core Duo laptop.

Up!

Hi All,
Btw if someone does a translation in languages other then the standard English lettering, like chinese lettering or whatnot, I'm always interrested if it works, and would deffenately love to get a screenshot.

DOG-German 😀

Hi,

Looks good, still needs some tweaks here and there with some resizing. Looks promesing, the 2000 lines of codes where worth it. Does it also support the german "s", "B"?

It does! 😀

Now that makes my day 😁

Erik.

Looks nice.

Hi,

Thanks QBix,
That means a lot to me,

In the meanwhile new D.O.G. will hold :
- FAQ Internet link currently pointing to
DOSBOX FAQ Thread
If a summery link is made I'll change it.
- Game support list
- Bug fix for the Translator (The box above Publisher should say Developer and so on)
- Maybe an automated scaler detection. (Maybe if i've got enough grey mass)
- Support for older DosBox versions.
- Scaler result window -> Gives an image that got generated with the Scaler (Maybe for Prince of Persia or Warcraft)
-Making it faster, current version : 5000 profiles boots at 10 sec
New version will take about 10 times more profiles. Still being experimented with.

And again, as someone once said : Boy its fast.

OH, has someone noticed once a program that sets itself to lowest thread priority? No, have a look at D.O.G. in the Taskmanager. And it still is fast 😁

Thanks again,

Erik.

Hi me again,

Bugs currently reported :
- Favorite button, loses profile data if you didn't edit the profile before pushing favorite.
- Main Menu loses widths.
- Translator problems. Wrong text at the wrong place. Resizing problems.
- Jumping label on the Cycles page, when clicking the Cycles button in CPU section.
- Exe and Setup path where set to readonly.

Currently these are fixed and the new version will be put up as soon as possible, thanks to Gadler.

IMPORTANT NOTICE : if you want to use the profiles from the old D.O.G. version then just copy the old exe over the new one and DELETE the STATES directory inside the D.O.G. directory.

The new verion holds a compatibility link in the DosBox menu.

Erik.
