PCem

hi 2mg, we discuss the cpu ussage few times https://pcem-emulator.co.uk/phpBB3/view ... sage#p4295 bit lower at abouth 12 post is all explained.

You are welcome

RetroAF , You are almost there. DOS cant see the hard disk drive , cos you created empty file, there is no partition yet. when boot floppy boots into command line, run "fdisk" and create partition, then reset, after reset You must format the drive also cos if You make partition You can select the dr...

Hi RetroAF , the cd-rom is always greyed out in the main menu and you can not choose iso there, instead run PCem and then do right click on PCem window, from drop dawn menu choose CD-ROM and load image, the mscdex will install the CD no problems (but bios will not show the cd detected on ami winbios...

True, i should'nt disagree.

True.

great idea!

Charadon, put your roms folder in .pcem folder in your home directory (same folder where your Desktop and Documents folders are) PCem did create that directory automatically and change all Capital letters on your roms to Small letters (as leilei kindly explain :) ), for example 55XWUQ0E.BIN in 430vx...

Thank You very much!

OSH delete that x , if its in the file name then change it as well, delete it. btw. what does dos prompt say? go into game directory and run exact command with the x and look what prompt is saying.

what is the "X" for?

UAE has quite interesting sounds of floppy disk drive, it is very well done , and it feel nice to.

ha! it does look like NC!!!

Thanks!! it is extremally useful for beginers ,

woow, thanks so much for this!!!!!
edit: can you tell me how to apply this patch in linux?

Thanks, i forgot again, buahh
Edit: it compiled fine now, but now i got "segmantation fault" upon launching binary in linux command line.

now i have strange compiling error, and i have no clue what is happening. 0 -lwx_gtk2u_html-3.0 -lwx_gtk2u_qa-3.0 -lwx_gtk2u_adv-3.0 -lwx_gtk2u_core-3.0 - lwx_baseu_xml-3.0 -lwx_baseu_net-3.0 -lwx_baseu-3.0 -lSDL2 pcem-cdrom-image.o: In function `image_open': /home/szady/Documents/pcem/src/cdrom-ima...

it also crashes trying to boot win98se cd rom.

Yep, You right , ./configure does not shown that there is something wrong with wx libraries, i thought it would ,but no

Autoreconf is good too, but i did'nt know that there is such a command, untill Sarah pointed me to it, and i did'nt know that it is a program, which is installed from synaptic on debian stretch.

Hard to tell, i am not a programmer nor any specialist, but i never install libwxbase.3.0-dev but as instructed by bit, in his original Linux GUI discussion post i do the line : sudo apt install libwxgtk3.0-dev libsdl2-dev libopenal-dev , and from my Stretch repos i get all dependiecies automaticall...

ecksemmess , are You running Linux64 bit build? if so, then try to turn ON and OFF voodoo recompiler, there will be no difference at all. it is OFF all the time in 13.1 and it does crash on win95 3Dmark99.

Ok. that is my last post on that off topic post, he he. i tested v12 and v13.1 windows version and v13.1 is much faster than v12 , about 10-20% or so .
So yeah, Sarah was right, v13.1 if anything is faster, but only windows version. anyway , many thanks , it all goes in right direction.

ok. sorry for spamming in wrong thread, but no point for starting new one, as it probably wont make much interest cos there is only few using linux. i did like 20 tests with nfs3 and 3d mark ranging from p50 to p100 without recompiler, and Linux64bit build indicate that without any doubt v12 is fast...

Hi Sarah , in both tests i used OpenGL. OpenGL in my linux is the fastest setting, Software is slightly slower and GL3.0 is horribly slow, that is due to my poor HD3000 performance, which is fastest in D3D but there is no DirectX in linux. Same conf and tests as above and i got an average of 65% on ...

leilei , just for You i did few tests (again) and running PCem64 on linux , using 430vx with P100/66 S3DX/GX (no voodoo). v13 and v13.1 was hovering in 3D mark99 test 1 Race, at 75%max to 30% lowest and v12 was hovering at 100% to 50% lowest. how that is not faster? running on 2 cores 2gen i5 at 2.7...

Hi leilei, since 13.1 PCem did slowdawn very much, thanks to the Pentium timing improved, if You have slower CPU You will notice that right away, but You got fast CPU so it does not concern You. In my case v13.1 is about 20-30% slower on Pentium cpu's. It does not affect 486 , so if alex_ncfc will n...

alex_ncfc , good news , 486DX4 100MHz with voodoo1 using one thread in voodoo setting , runs Tomb rider II very well , on my 2.7Ghz even with voodoo1 without recompiler (cos is broken on lunux) i bet DX4 66 Mhz on V1 will run it as well, forget minimum spec for TR2, Voodoo is a powerfull thing. So Y...

A.Naim , hi there, just to make it straight, voodoo 1 or 2 does NOT NEED 3 cores, it CAN USE 3 cores , but V1 will still work well on 2 cores, using only 1 for CPU and 1 for voodoo. alex_ncfc on Your i3 You should not even think of SLI emulation, especially at Your CPU speed. 486-100MHz and voodoo1 ...
