I've mentioned it on the IDE HDD thread already, but when the game is run from a RAM drive it is flawless, like on my real Pentium 233 machine. This is a major bottleneck, and does not behave like a period correct IDE HDD drive, please fix that. So... you are playing Duke 3D on PCem on a Pentium 23...

Thank you!

IDE HDD emulation is still slow and stuttery as heck.

With what games do you notice that stutter?

I believe that even unpateched shouldn't have that effect

Great info, thanks for clarifying

That will most likely be with only one or two cores active though. For V2 SLI running flat out you're going to end up with 7 active threads, at which point you _will_ need to overclock!

How do you end with 7 cores?
1 for the CPU, 1 for each Voodoo2, so far I count 3 threads

They aren't found on websites. They're found with your games, physically.

subtle answer

Here someone posted he has the 9900k
http://pcem-emulator.co.uk/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=13164#p13164

As far as I know, every GPU works with PCem as everything is emulated using the CPU

Well, stock is 3.60 ghz of course it won't work, but the 9900k reaches 5.00 ghz without overclocking, so I took that 5.00 ghz as stock

Whoa! I believe is enough!

It really looks quite good!

I hope you can resume your PCX2 emulation someday (I know, there are no datasheets, but...)

Wouldn't be easier to upload them to youtube? Easy access to everyone!

you forgot to link the above mp4 files

for me is impossible in v16 exit fullscreen with CTRL+ALT+PAG-DOWN v14 and v15 exit fullscreen perfectly, in v16 I have to use ALT+TAB don't know why, if there is any log that I can provide I'll do it. I upgraded PCem from v15 to v16 by overwriting the older version in the same folder, the keyboard...

works fine in v16

The thing is that programming is stressful, and besides PCem Sarah has her work and a personal life
I bet that after releasing v16 she wants to not even thinking in PCem for some time...

What is CANC?
Well, I'm in Windows 8.1 maybe that's something
An alternative to exit full screen is Alt+Tab

I can exit fullscreen as usual...

There's an About dialog? Never knew that.

Yes, in the Status screen go to Misc and there is the About diag... it currently says v14 lol

*this* is really great news hehe

Just a heads-up... I had the same question - was looking for a quick way to transfer small file sets from host (Windows) to guest (PCem or 86box), so I came up with my own hackish solution. It requires a driver (ImDisk Virtual Disk) and doesn't take care of the other direction (guest→host), but it ...

Plus, there are games that won't work with network, just modem and null-modem like the first Command & Conquer

Is that Productiva G100A more compatible with games?

Don't worry, we welcome v16 as it is!

Can I use MSYS2? It is recommended?

There is a guide to compile with MSYS2, so... it is possible at least

Don't worry, no current CPU can handle those processors at 100% yet

By the year 2000 the average processor was the Pentium 3, so the emulated Pentium 1 was too outdated for that year.
You can try to run the game with the FIC motherboard and a K6-II or K6-3 but don't expect 100% emulation speed

I found a playthrough on YouTube recorded with a Voodoo3 Think there is your problem. PCem doesn't emulate a Voodoo3. And if I remember correctly, A vodoo3 is a lot more powerful and has more features than the voodoo2 I'm not sure about the features, but a Voodoo3 2000 has the same speed than a Voo...

works for me: 63 sectors - 16 heads - 16383 cylinders

In PCem does the Intel 486 work the same as the AMD one? Here is an interesting one: Duke Nukem 3D v1.3D (latest Shareware version) If I start the game with the Intel 486 it all seems like it crashed BUT whenever I changed the processor from the Intel 486/66 to the AMD 486/66 the game runs fine. htt...
