In reply to neozeed.

I’ve been trying to use the source, while I can compile it easily since the author of the PCem-plus provided directions and mingw.zip I just couldn’t figure out how to debug it.

I’ve made a project in Visual Studio in hope to get it working but there are tons of errors, it doesn’t recognize most of the syntax the author has used in source … damn VC++.

A great feature PCem is missing is snapshots !

In reply to Rainbow. oh.. I guess you could look at the keyboard, and substitute another key for delete. you may just have to fire up a debugger. or look closer at the source.

In reply to aybe. The Control-Alt-Delete shortcut is required to login to Windows NT 3.1 and up. Since I have the version that lacks this shortcut, it's impossible to use Windows NT without having to press Control-Alt-Delete on the host machine. >_<

No… and when compiling I change the &F accelerator in the rc file to F&ile so I can use alt+f to edit text file in dos edit… Otherwise it’s annoying.

I’ve heard of the filtered version, never looked at it though.

Do you know if there is a shortcut for sending CTRL-ALT-Delete to PCem ?

Also, have you seen that version of PCem that features shaders ?

In reply to Lorenzo. My bad, the icon is surely not mine. Mine didn't have a keyboard.

In reply to Rainbow. Really? The icon was included? I made it and sent it to the author but he neved answered. I never noticed it was added.

In reply to neozeed.

I’m very happy with the latest revision of PCem too even though I haven’t tested Windows NT 3.51 or Windows NT 4.0 right now.

I managed to extract the PCem icon from the PCem v8.1 r91 binaries under the name PCem.ico and I have it stashed one of my hard drives right now.

Hopefully, NE2000 networking capabilities, Windows NT and OS/2 guest support will be implemented officially in PCem v9 soon. 🙂

In reply to Rainbow. I saw it run the resource compiler, but I didn't look to far to see what it was doing. I'm just happy it still runs and I can use my DOOM.
