In reply to tony. You'd have to try running it under GDB ....

In reply to tony. thats really too bad, the Pentium 60 and 66Mhz stuff is blazingly fast, and DOOM v1.1 consumes 1-3% of a processor... Have you tried the latest from source?

Weirdly, this dynarec version never worked under my Windows 8.1 x64 host… Each time it just throws out “PCem_dynarec_release.exe has stopped working” and quit violently.

In reply to SA1988. I've only been running MS-DOS.. And DOOM at that. I love the AWE-32 support and how it maps onto the MT-32 quite well.

In reply to neozeed. yes, also, win9x seems to not work correctly with dynarec.

rv184 had a bug about CD Audio, I fixed it in my own :p (hint: the bug is in both win.c and pc.c about the initializing the devices).

In reply to calvin.

Cirrus isn’t required since PCEm emulates better video cards for compatibility with almost all OSs and old programs that use custom drivers, like AutoCAD, PADS or 3DMAX (comes to my mind Tseng and Paradise Video emulation).

But would be nice to have a basic SCSI emulation to overcome the limitations of the old ST506/IDE drivers that came with almost all older OSs, including slow operation and the dread storage capacity limits. Actually VBox can emulate an Adaptec compatible using the included Buslogic core emulation, which is compatible with some pretty old drivers, like the ones included in WinNT betas and OS/2 1.x.
Would be nice to get something like this intro PCem.

In reply to calvin. well, networking is available via a patch of mine, so you can emulate the ne2000 there.
