Great work Slaanesh. This makes me want a Nanonote!

[slaanesh]

Alright, I'm finally played my first game on DOSBox on the Nanonote and everything is working.

Yes, I'm playing "Elite" - well actually I'm watching the Cobra MkIII spin around whilst being serenaded to the Blue Danube via PC Speaker sound...

There are a couple issues still - looks like the Nanonote has less usable memory than the A320.
Using the Dyna Rec I can only allocate 1MB of PC RAM before it bombs out. On the A320 I can happily allocate 4MB of PC RAM.

I'll make a few tweaks to adjust this because the DynaRec cache is currently set to 4MB - which is probably way too much.

Once that's done I'll double check that the binary still works okay on the A320 and we're all set for some public test version!

I hope there are some other Nanonote users out there (apart from Mortys who I know has one) ;-)

I have a nanonote if you need some more people to test let me know

[zear_]

I also have one, and I'm eager to test DOSbox on it

[Mortys]

How do you know I've got a Nanonote Slaanesh ? Maybe it's because of all the pressure I put on you
However, good work and thanks for your efforts.

If It runs Loopynes at full speed you can say goodbye to all other NES emulators on Dingoo...

Hi Slaanesh
Any new information about Dosbox?

[slaanesh]

Yep, here it is:

DOSBOX Public Test - Alpha

This is a Public Test Alpha.

I'm about to go to bed but:

* There is debugging going to the screen.
* Some things may not work or are not finished.
* There are no readme's included (yet). You will have to know how to use DOSBox. See the included dosbox.conf as an example.
* Most of my later testing was done with the Nanonote. A320 users, it's up to you to map and bind your own keys using a mapper.txt file (standard DOSbox feature).

More info soon.

[Mortys]

Great news ! i'm gonna try it asap
Thx for your hard work slaanesh

[Pleng]

Great fun. Sensible default key mappings too

Thanks Slaanesh!

Hi Slaanesh
How do you make the mouse to work ?
I've try Syndicate but even in the menu, it's pretty slow and the game crash when trying to launch a game...
Do you know if games using Dos4G are slower in dosbox NN than other one ?
However, great work for this first Test version

PS : In fact the loadings are pretty slow on my NN... Is it normal or my µsd is corrupted ? (Try at 336Mhz)

Wow, it works!

I'm running Might & Magic I full speed here — in fact, it's way too fast, I have to tinker with the DOSBOX config file to slow it down. I have no sound, but the emulation looks solid! Thanks a lot!

Do you use it on Nanonote or on Dingoo ?
Cause on my NN, every game I tried are pretty slow (i'm gonna try Might & Magic I to compare with you).
