Thank you for your interesting report! I still have some troubles with Wing Commander 4 (check my topic within this forum ;)). But I'll give your adjustments a trial. Especially that idea with the 80000 cylces change via one "click" pretty smart. ;) Btw: Do you use a joystick? I also have some probs …

Thx in advance for the tips! 😀 I'll try 'em and give report later! 😉

In Dosbox 0.73 the game doesn't crash, if I use the joystick. But I just noticed another problem... I used the keymapper (CTRL+F1) to add some former "keyboard-only"-keys to my joystick. E.g. stuff like change target, fire rockets (!), change weapons, afterburner etc. (I want to have as much keys/ …

Ok, I got my original Precision Pro Joystick now. Well, it seems to work, but there is only one problem: If I play WC4 via dosbox Daumcafé AND fullscreen, the game/dosbox always crashes if I press the fire button (no matter if I press it within the calibration screen or while flying). If I play …

Really? How did you manage that?? It's a dos-only program and Vista hasn't got a dosbox like Win95/98. I don't even thought about the opportunity to try it just under Vista... In my imagination it feels like if I'd put a vinyl record in a cd player and vice versa... 😉

Drexciyan_Wavejumper how many cycles and fps have you got with with dynamic/max in gulikoza's build? Core=dynamic Cycles=max Hm, it's difficult to point only one value. There aren't definite values for the fps & cycles. Even within the menu the rates are "dancing around". E.g. the cycles somethin …

I think there was a bug that crashed dosbox when lfb was changed. I have already fixed it, but have not yet released the new version. Ok, looking forward!! :) When do you intend to release it? Glide allowed the game/program to fully access the linear framebuffer (rendered image) and read/write from …

Set lfb=write under [glide] section. Yeah, already read this on your website and changed that "lfb=full" to "lfb=write". But then, the game doesn't even want to start. In deed I get the 3dfx-logo, but then only a black screen and after a few seconds the dosbox closes itself automatically... :( Btw: …

robertmo wrote: core=dynamic cycles=max ? I tried... (both for software and glide version) But, if anything, there is only a slight improvement. Still not totally smooth. Maybe that improvement only comes from my imagination. 😉

Make sure that there are no glide2x.ovl files in the games directories, the only glide2x.ovl has to be on the Z: drive (make sure it's there!) What is the Z: drive? Where do I find it? Does "Z: drive" mean the same like the Dosbox folder? BTW: Are there any evidenced cases, where Schleichfahrt …

Hallo! Today i tried dosbox with glide support and it works well. But i have a problem with the game "Schleichfahrt". I did the patches for using 3dfx cards (with my old assembled AMD K6-2 in background it works well) but if i start SF with 3dfx support i get the message that there was no 3dfx-card …

I have a similar joystick that has both gameport and usb. Weird. Yeah that's the one I bought recently. Just read my notes! ;) :) There are two versions of the Precision Pro. The old one, with only gameport connection. And this kind of reissue with both gameport and usb-technology. (and usb adapter …

I have a Sidewinder 3D Pro Plus. (but it was sold as a "Precision Pro" - it's virtually an "unreal" Precision Pro ;) ) http://www.hartware.de/media/reviews/90/oben.jpg But it has only a gameport. And Vista doesn't support gameports - no way!! Therefore I need a joystick with usb. (for playing WC4 on …

Hi! My system: Intel Quad Core Q6600 @2,4 GHz (I guess it's 2,4 x 4 = 9,6 GHz) 4GB RAM Geforce 8800 GT Soundblaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio Windows Vista 64Bit (regrettably) Dosbox 0.73 / Dosbox CVS Build by Gulikoza (DOSBoxcvs-090704) (I play Screamer 2 @SVGA and 256 colours) Initially I tried Screamer 2 …

Yeah, that thought came into my mind, too. Changing the cpu-cylces before and after every mission. I guess, that would be solution I can live with. Though it's not the perfect answer, cause there are also videos which occur immediatly while flying... But anyways, that will do... The more important …

The lame dosbox can use only one core for the major workload. Hey, it wasn't my intention to diss the dosbox and/or it's makers. Sorry! :happy: I love the dosbox!! If there is stuttering, most likely your fixed cycles are too high so decrease them. About the other problem, try other output= …

Although carmageddon works great for me in 3Dfx mode, a minor bug is present that annoys me, some reflective maps appears as white texture on some cars. Not on all cars however. In splat pack on one map the reflective windows are present and on another it's gone, and a few cars has reflective …

I'm new here, so "Hi" to all, at first! :cool: My system: Intel Quad Core Q6600 @2,4 GHz (I guess it's 2,4 x 4 = 9,6 GHz) 4GB RAM Geforce 8800 GT Soundblaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio Windows Vista 64Bit (regrettably) Dosbox 0.73 Well, I have experienced some troubles running WC4 via dosbox. At least, I …
