No no no! The dither subtraction only, ONLY applies to destination pixels of blended polygons in 3dfx Glide (usually) with the intent on reducing overdraw artifacts from a dithered texture map (creating another noticeable "big dither" artifact as a result). This won't do anything about anything els...

I can't reproduce the Intel 486DX2/66 crash on the latest tree with registered 1.3D. I'm thinking that 81ccfa5 commit from january fixed it

the 'bug' can be 'fixed' by clicking Mark forums read.

XMS error happens before the video initializes, not even the Disney logo shows up. I don't think i've changed any settings with the demo, i've tried to keep everything as-is with the pcdosmini image and try to match the config to what the particular targeted VIA thin client is compatible with.

Tried an Advanced/ZP config? Mystique's only currently working (on Windows) with that particular motherboard at this moment.

PCem fatals with this in the log SiS 496/497 AM486dx4-120

Latest revision, doesn't happen in v15.
Also occurs on Aztech Sound Galaxy Washington

Weird. I've always used the AWE64 disc to install control/applications with my real AWE32 and never noticed anything out of the usual on the emulated one...

I've think i've seen this buffer flicker on real hardware in Windows 98 before on a real S3 Trio64V+* card a very long time ago (~'99). This is kind of why they made a Windows version (Incredible Toon Machine) not long after. Whether if it involved S3VBE/SDD/UNIVBE I can't remember... Probably even ...

I remember I've had that happen on real hardware ages ago. Simcity 3000 being too nice to allow the Voodoo2 card to be used as a slow 2D blitter has its price. This was advised against back in the day. Probably the other major PC game of the time to allow this Voodoo2 2d blitting is Final Fantasy VI...

I think that's the screen texture bleeding in with old texture data from a higher mode. Could probably use a color clear at mode change with a little memcpy (and probably would be useful for implementing backporch colors/margins)

The PCI 128's a budget card and is pretty much a proto-SBLive, since Creative bought up Ensoniq for their PCI sound tech to create the Live (and all the later cards like Audigy, X-Fi etc), AudioPCI's a stopgap solution and a very popular common OEM card of choice. Early SBLive drivers had the same D...

It's real behavior for non-PnP ("Plug 'n play") SB cards. If you didn't have the card in at Windows setup time, you'll have to add them manually through the Add New Hardware control panel applet (Automatically or not), and PCem doesn't emulate any later (>1994) variant of ISA Sound Blasters

Applying this patch to the recent tree, i've noticed the Wx UI has a hang when a Super7 board's picked with any Cyrix, not sure what went wrong there or if it's a badly applied patch.

completely different architecture, CPUs, etc. PCem likely won't ever emulate the PowerPCs or Motorolas involved, nor the x86 CPUs involved with the later Macs. divingkatae is working on a PCem-inspired PPC Mac emulator though, motivated by frustrations of sheepshaver/PearPC stagnancy and how there's...

There are W9X drivers from 2002 that are worth trying out.

Have you tried different AudioPCI drivers? I've had popping with a real card depending on that before, where later WDM drivers seemed better.

Disregard all patches above for now This patch applies to V15. It only adds dither subtract. It's only called dither subtract. It's also got a big table instead of generating one this time. It's also only a new checkbox instead of a combobox. It only adds to the interpreter. This is my cleaned up, ...

The 3dfx emulation is entirely software rendered. You'll need at least three/four CPU threads/cores

Here's some models I scraped from info (rather than the actual drives) { "MATSHITA", "CR-571", "53R141", "CR-571", // unknown "1.0e", "", "1.0e", "CR-571-B", "Matsushita CR-571 2X", "matsushita_cr-571_2x", CD_MODEL_INTERFACE_IDE, 2, }, { "MITSUMI", "CD-ROM !B", "53R141", "CD-ROM !B", "B05", "", "B05...

On my end, all I can think of are some of the practical patches I made that couldn't make it into v15 for time reasons that nearly got buried [url=http://pcem-emulator.co.uk/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3242]Cyrix M II CPU IDs[/url] [url=http://pcem-emulator.co.uk/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3028]3dfx ...

Can you please post a screenshot of a program crash?

Deemanding a screenshot of an old reported bug that got fixed over a year ago......now?

45% on DOS idle, 75% Doom with i486SX16 recompiler on that system i've mentioned. Latest code tree compiled with GCC 4.7.2

Every time I power up one of my old PCs, the sound of the PSU turning on, HDD spinning up and calibrating, the 5 1/4 and then the 3 1/2 drives seeking, etc REALLY bring me back in a way emulation can't. I'm really fond of your effort to preserve the sounds! Thanks! Another thing stopping me is how ...

I'm sure i've got a few of my past CD-ROM drives' strings from random old hardware detection log files... also the CD-ROM model thing crossed my mind while pondering about figuring to create CD-ROM drive sound. I procrastinated too much on capturing my old whirry Mitsumi 4X. (by the way there's exac...

The Washington card seems to work fine with the '95 Packard legend's drivers , surprised the other card didn't (especially considering the board names)

It didn't produce any additional luck on Turtle Beach drivers for their similar WSS clone though.

it's the FIC PA-2013 that had 4 PCI slots, however that's ATX...
