PCem

* Edited my previous post to add missing "MMX" to CPU type I've tested CL-GD5434 and Diamond Stealth 3D 2000 with (default?) 4MB and with desktop in 16 bit color depth I've played Commandos BEL and BCD for a few minutes with S3 Trio64 with 1MB and it's fine too with full versions of those games, but...

I've this CD-ROM with some SB drivers: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsfYUL_MlCt-hNRfWrscUt-kVwkTdg (size is about 12MB)
See the readme files to know for what is each one.

Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines
Commandos: Beyond the Call of Duty
Both working on Award 430VX PCI, Pentium MMX 233, CL-GD5434 (also with Diamond Stealth 3D 2000), SB16, Windows 95 C + drivers provided by DirectX 6 setup

When PCem is updated do I have to reinstall all my Windows and DOS systems or there is no problem with version change? Usually you can keep everything but it's a good idea to create a backup of your previous PCem folder and your floppy/zip/hard disc images if those are on another folder before tryi...

[/quote] And yet, I never ever saw the splash screen being drawn from the bottom to the top . Wild guess: different adapters = different drivers = different ways to access the framebuffer? [/quote] In this case VGALOGO.RLE is a standard BMP file (first two bytes are 'BM') and the image on Windows bi...

Well, I've tested the same HD image with PCem with 386DX @ 16 MHz and DOSBox with cpu settings core=normal cputype=386 and PCem appears to be too fast, but according to those videos of 386 computers the 'progressive' splash would happen only on very very slow machines/video cards and PCem display sp...

This could be altered because on Windows 3.x VGALOGO.LGO contains the code to display VGALOGO.RLE and it's not the same code on all drivers/resolutions/versions possibly having different splash effects WIN.COM is not present on setup disks :roll: it's made by joining WIN.CNF + VGALOGO.LGO + VGALOGO....

Nice job, everything works fine again.

Well, I still have the problem with SB16, perhaps am I using some wrong dll? corrupt MSYS2 environment? somewhat missing? :roll: Could anyone with a successful compilation under MSYS2 upload somewhere its pcem.exe + all dll files please? even the full src folder with the good Makefile will be usefu...

I did the same (installed everything included in msys2-devel) because I got this message before: $ Mingw32-make -j CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && C:/msys64/usr/bin/sh.exe /home/user/pcem/missing aclocal-1.15 /home/user/pcem/missing: línea 80: aclocal-1.15: no se encontró la orden WARNING: 'ac...

Yeah, if you want speed, MSYS2 is not the way to go. It is however far more convenient to get started. All the libraries and headers required (except for pcap headers) are available from the MSYS2 repository. There is no need to try and figure out which files go where, especially with wxWidgets. Al...

Good job, now it works perfectly under MSYS2 :-) I ran the following commands to get a fresh executable: hg clone https://bitbucket.org/pcem_emulator/pcem cd pcem ./configure --enable-networking --enable-release-build Mingw32-make -j strip ./src/pcem.exe And about the speed for me it seems that MSYS...

:arrow: EDIT: It was my fault, for some reason I was using one or more invalid dll's, restoring the previous ones from a backup fixed those errors: The procedure entry point _ZNKSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEE7compareEPKc could not be located in the dynamic link library C:\msys64\...

Just a curiosity that I've forgot to mention before: PCS 386 SX BIOS has some kind of built in debugger.

Maybe accessed by a key combination but I don't know it. I've used debug command g=f000:a3be

Now that the emulation problem is solved I want to explain how to determine the version of the game that you are using, because the game itself won' t test CPU type and loading the 286 version on a 8086/8088 will hang the system without any explanation: There are (at least) 3 types of Titus executa...

:?: It's enough to say there's a BUG in the PCem 8086 emulation if other emulator(s) can run it flawlessly? http://www.hampa.ch/pce/ seems sturdy, but I find it difficult to operate it, take a look if you want Well, I meant if someone wants to investigate in PCem why it does not work in PCem... I p...

:?: It's enough to say there's a BUG in the PCem 8086 emulation if other emulator(s) can run it flawlessly? A problem with a single game may not seem important for now but it may affect some other software, if someone wants to investigate it I can provide the 8086 executable because all other files ...

Finally in PCE/ibmpc http://www.hampa.ch/pce/pce-ibmpc.html works peerfectly on all video modes and 8088/8086/80188/80186 CPU @ 4.77MHz titus_pce-ibmpc_cga.png titus_pce-ibmpc_ega.png titus_pce-ibmpc_vga.png Using this configuration: (Here I mean PCE config, NOT PCem config) C:\msys64\home\user\PCE-...

In PCem with 8088/8086 displays the same as in VB8086 with any video card and any Titus command line swithces: titus_PCem-808x.png With 80286 or higher it runs fine in CGA, EGA and VGA: titus_PCem-80286.png In Retro http://jorisvr.nl/article/retro runs well in CGA mode.

Titus runs fine on VB8086 emulator on autodetected CGA mode: titus_vb8086_cga.png It can be forced to VGA mode with /V switch and it does work too: titus_vb8086_vga.png But if forced to EGA (/E) it gets stuck on video mode Dh: titus_vb8086_ega.png Screenshot shows MS-DOS booting because it's being l...

I do think many manufacturers used NEC Vxx series mainly because them offered better performance at similar or even lower costs than the Intel 8088/8086/80186 I don't expect to see anything using 8080 (8 bit) code on a XT clone, 8088/8086/80286 emulation should do the job for most BIOS and all PC/XT...

Hi, excuse me for taking so long to reply, I had forgotten about this thread ... After switching to IRQ10, did you try to configure TCP/IP manually? DHCP in Windows 95 under PCem always give me errors and no connection at all. ip 10.0.2.15 mask 255.255.255.0 W95_IP_Netmask.png gateway 10.0.2.2 W95_G...

Well, I can realize what may be needed but I don't have enough c/c++ skills to do it myself

I'm pretty sure most users would appreciate an option to select floppy disc controller on all machines as we can do now with the hard disc. At least there's one driver called "2M-XBIOS" to make this posible without the need of BIOS support when the controller supports the higher data rate of the big...

I've edited the other post because I wrote DMA in place of IRQ and IRQ in place of I/O address.

I didn't tried Windows 98 but Windows ME on the same machine, it's a full setup after fromatting Windows 95 so all settings are new, on NE2000 resources automatic configuration is grayed out and not in use, internet works also without doing anything. This makes me to suspect even more about the auto...

This happened to me: Both Windows 95 setup and the add new hardware applet will detect the correct card model and on device manager it appears normal (without a warning icon) but if you open properties->resources may have unnotified resource conflicts. Even if there are no conflicts see if the IRQ a...

This picture shows the problem with BIOS SETUP, TIME and DATE are corrupt for some reason and this hangs the setup. [The same corruption with date (? instead of numbers) happens sometimes on Amstrad MegaPC too, but on this one the SETUP still works] There was a small shareware program to configure C...

Windows 95 without FPU seems to be a lot slower at least to compress the drive with DriveSpace 3 with the UltaPack option included with Microsoft Plus! (not recommended even for 486) A lot of time to make room for IE5.5 to discover that it won't run with only 8MB of RAM... fortunately there are stil...
