Dosbox Compatibility List
« Reply #16 on: November 27, 2004, 02:43:00 PM »

just thought i should say right now

the default cpu cycles thing is 3000, so if you don't test your game around 3000 then state that used raised it to whatever
if you don't then i'll assume that you tested at default 3000
you only really need to post it if it really effects the gameplay, for most games im sure people can figure it out and just press the button a couple of times

same for the ram i know by default it was originally 8 megs but im sure most people want to use as much as they can which would be 16
so im going to say that by default the ram is 16megs and if you use something else then that then say so or it will be assumed that its tested useing 16 mgs of ram

as i just found out if you change the settings for one game then everygame will be effected so double check the settings for each game just in case
so don't assume its at default when you go in a game at first

i really havn't used dosbox that much so i don't know alot of the settings to get the game running better besides changing sound and cpu speed


and for no reason at all i'll just post my findings along with you guys just in case someone wants to say something  tongue.gif

alien carnage - works good
monster bash - perfect
bio-menace - game speed is good, but for some reason at random points it exits back to the game select screen
blood - doesn't go into the game
paratrooper bob - perfect
blake stone -aliens of gold - works good but a little slow, cpu cycles 5000
blake stone -planet strike - didn't load up for me, going to try again later
crystal caves - perfect
cosmos cosmic adventure - perfect
dangerous dave -perfect
dangerous dave 2 -perect
descent -very slow, but its still playable... sort of, cpu cycles:10000
duke nukem - perfect
duke nukem 2 -noticed some very slight slowdown crank the cpu speed up a bit
hocus - perfect
jazz jackrabbit - perfect, just turn up the cpu cycles a tad
commander keen 1-3 - perfect

mario & luigi - almost perfect, raise the speed but it will still have some lag
Raptor: call of shadows - almost perfect, full game speed but touching the mouse (left analog) will freeze the game, either turn the mouse off or make sure not to touch the left analog stick
redneck rampage: rides again - didn't load up
realms of chaos - good speed until you kill someone then it slows down alot until the blood goes away. Just raise the cpu cycles
robot revenge - works good, raise cpu cycles to about 4000
sledrider - perfect
stunts - perfect
street rod 2 - perfect
veil of darkness - perfect

strife - wouldn't load up
wolfenstein 3d- almost perfect, just a tad slow, raise the cpu cycles too
spear of destiny- almost perfetc, just a tad slow, raise the cpu cycles too
wolfenstein add-ons - these are wolfenstein levels that you can get off the internet, new graphics and source code changes, i tested about 20 and 19 of them worked, they have the same effect just like wolf 3d , almost perfect but just a tad slow

Guilty 2 - Innocent Until Caught

this list is growing, good work deathx88, and the people posting their findings.

i am surprised that you are having problems deathx88, i have never encountered anything like the problems you are having. apart from not being able to get duke nukem 1 or 2 running, but i figured that it just wasnt compatible.

has xport been informed of these sorts of glitches occuring?

i posted a whole bunch of stuff i his forum, in the dosbox thread

stuff like the configuration settings being the same for all games (controllers and other settings)

and then that protected copyright thing that only happens sometimes  

and the screen never seems to stay the way that i re-size


has anyone else had any of these problems


i also requested some save states, which i do think will really come in handy


also, has anyone else tested bio menace, it doesn't work for me and i want to see if it works for anyone else. Its such a good game  biggrin.gif



Mr Do!,

can you be more specific about your games, its hard for me to add those in without
a color code or you at least saying how they run
saying that they run in default mode could still mean they have problems with the game or so on
