DOSBox AGA/RTG

It wasn't using your port though, it was the other one.

No worries, glad it's working well for you anyway

This would be absolutely amazing!

Do you have a config file?
Never tried it on the Amiga so far...

I used dosboxaga not rtg. My config file have nothing special,you have to mount c and launch megarace.bat... You have to install it from the cd 1st or copy it from the cd (sorry don't remember). For the rest let everything like it is, just play with the cpu cycle in the config file... Don't know how much cycles a v1200 can reach... If you push the cycles too far for your v1200, the sound will begin to be choppy. Try cycles=fixed 4000 if the sound is not choppy you are good, i hope the v1200 will be powerfull enough.Good luck.Give us news.
edited : i attached my config file just erased the .txt.

Here is a quick video to show how to mount and run a CDROM ISO using DOSBox RTG 68K.

Also note the pressing the escape key does not crash DOSBox for me in window mode.

You should make these changes to improve sound stutter:

PHP Code:


[mixer]
#   nosound: Enable silent mode, sound is still emulated though.
#      rate: Mixer sample rate, setting any device's rate higher than this will probably lower their sound quality.
#            Possible values: 44100, 48000, 32000, 22050, 16000, 11025, 8000, 49716.
# blocksize: Mixer block size, larger blocks might help sound stuttering but sound will also be more lagged.
#            Possible values: 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192, 512, 256.
# prebuffer: How many milliseconds of data to keep on top of the blocksize.

nosound=false
rate=22050
blocksize=4096
prebuffer=200


[sblaster]
#  sbtype: Type of Soundblaster to emulate. gb is Gameblaster.
#          Possible values: sb1, sb2, sbpro1, sbpro2, sb16, gb, none.
#  sbbase: The IO address of the soundblaster.
#          Possible values: 220, 240, 260, 280, 2a0, 2c0, 2e0, 300.
#     irq: The IRQ number of the soundblaster.
#          Possible values: 7, 5, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12.
#     dma: The DMA number of the soundblaster.
#          Possible values: 1, 5, 0, 3, 6, 7.
#    hdma: The High DMA number of the soundblaster.
#          Possible values: 1, 5, 0, 3, 6, 7.
# sbmixer: Allow the soundblaster mixer to modify the DOSBox mixer.
# oplmode: Type of OPL emulation. On 'auto' the mode is determined by sblaster type. All OPL modes are Adlib-compatible, except for 'cms'.
#          Possible values: auto, cms, opl2, dualopl2, opl3, none.
#  oplemu: Provider for the OPL emulation. compat might provide better quality (see oplrate as well).
#          Possible values: default, compat, fast.
# oplrate: Sample rate of OPL music emulation. Use 49716 for highest quality (set the mixer rate accordingly).
#          Possible values: 44100, 49716, 48000, 32000, 22050, 16000, 11025, 8000.

sbtype=sb16
sbbase=220
irq=7
dma=1
hdma=5
sbmixer=false
oplmode=auto
oplemu=fast
oplrate=22050

Thanks for the info.

Got this message (See Grab):

[turrican3]

thank you nova.
edited : thank you for the tip but it makes no difference with winuae but it will surely help on real amiga,v2,v4,etc.

The v1200 is perhaps sadly not enough powerfull yet ???
on sysconf winuae run between 900 and 1200 mips, i think it's much more than v1200.

maybe it could depend from some settings in WinUAE, but in fullscreen ESC key it working. i don't know.
Very soon i will try to make a video

Hello,

have test the Last two days many Games on V1200 & V4.

The follow Games runs:
Dune 2
EOB 3
Battle Isle 2
Wing Commander 2
X-COM (UFO) 1-3
Die Fugger 2
Doom Ultimate
Tie Fighter

All Games have the same problem not really playable, its to slow & sounds are stuttering but every game run. it is poosible to speedup the dosbox code to improve speed on Vampires and other Amigas?

@Nova great that we have now iso support, works wonderful,thx

[Seiya]

My test with problem in Window mode.

How much cycles the v4 can handle ???

That's so strange, does it happen with any of my other ports that support a window mode?

What OS are you running?

[Seiya]

i tryed on Coffin R57, but i tryed also on AmigaSYS.
.

[Seiya]

This morning i try also with Workbench 3.1 with RTG and it works. The problem is that with Coffin and other AmigaOS Mod is that Dosbox window don't have close button in the windows. So i think some OS mod change window aspect. And not only that. Also with normal 3.1 i can use every keys without crash.

[AMIGASYSTEM]

Seiya on some advanced RTG systems like Coffin the window closing of DosBOX is a simple setting on MCP, DosBOX has no fault

To solve this problem, you have to deactivate the window closing function in "MCP" or move output key to another function key.
