Re: Talking dosbox pre pre alpha 0.01 That would be nice to have, anyway guys I have cooked up as close to a mac version of this talking dosbox as we can get as of now. Will give the link for it once its uploaded. @Crashmaster: Why would the keysoft1 disks be useless, wouldnt they still work with a fake hardware synth, i e use the virtual bns emulator but make it pose as a keynote sa so that keysoft will recognize it? Id bring up keynote multimedia but kgm doesnt work in dos anyway.

Re: Talking dosbox pre pre alpha 0.01
Re: Talking dosbox pre pre alpha 0.01 Right, I think you guys deserve an update. That will come a bit later today, but you can expect a few things:-I managed to boot into freedos. This was mostly required by one screen reader, tinytalk which absolutely needed the cover speech thing drivers to be loaded with proper dos. The speech thing was a very cheep sound card that connected to a parallel port and I mostly set it up to free the soundblaster for games that need it. Some apps may work better or worse when booted into it.-The next version will also come with Tyler Spiveys braille ns peak emulator, compiled into an EXE as well as a full version of ASAP. You will need to install com0com to get a virtual serial port, but I think its worth it as ASAP is probably the best dos screen reader out there. Its faster, has the most reliable screen echo and unlike the screen readers that use stalker, doesnt stop the program while its speaking. Its definitely the preferr ed way of playing the PCS games, for example. JAWS will still be included so no worries in case you dont want to set that up.-Lastly, just like with Jason Smiths messapple I want to include some games to get people started. Im probably going to include Eamon, Drone, a few of the other games people mentioned here and Ill probably also get in touch with Phil to see if I can get the full versions of the PCS games Im missing@Jack yes, PC speaker emulation works. Its emulated by Dosbox independently of your actual hardware. This was one of the reasons I wanted to get this to work so badly URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=214547#p214547 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: Talking dosbox pre pre alpha 0.01 Hi pitermach.Ok here is my old hard drive from my 386 sx I backed up ages ago before most off my disks went bad.there is a lot of stuff in it Norton utilities qemm and a few other things.One thing does the c drive if its the only thing mounted in emulation does it take that as the hard drive.try these at your own risk I wont want to stuff up my computer with some of this as it could be dangerous however you may want to experiment as you see fit.quemm is the quarterdeck expanded memory manager I got this from an install so its not a real install just the files you need to run qsetup then optimize.I suggest you include the b000-b7ff which is the old monochrome reagon, also mft is a diagnostic program that can come in handy to.device files and a few other programs are loaded in here.Norton has everything from disk docter and speeddisk and a few other bits of crap which I am not sure about.I have lots of games some are from the ifarchive.I wont have time to test things fully today but whatever.anyway for everyone else try the games the programs are your own risk to all the sup 622 folder is for my old Toshiba and can be disreguarded there may be others that can be disreguarded as well but I have not touched this folder in at least 5 years.it should take 16 minutes to upload or so.note piter if you do get qemm working when its done its first time, in all the device lines with various memory numbers change those and put random gibberish numbers in the file then run optimize again.Do that in your config.sys and autoexec.bat then again that may not work there is also a beep and some other music stuff, I also have an old version of wordperfect I am not sure if its included or not but I can give it if you care for it.I have some old mastertouch 1 2 and keysoft 1 disks but sadly they are useless to general users even me now.I have emailed frank of eamon del uxe your email address and the link to this topic but he has gone.The last I heard of him a couple years ago was that he was hacked and then a day after that the post on his blog went.He had apparently lost the source code but didnt elaborate.its a shame hes not here now he has been wanting to make an emulator for ages.anyway have fun URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=214619#p214619 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: Talking dosbox pre pre alpha 0.01
Re: Talking dosbox pre pre alpha 0.01 @Trenton good to know. I obviously hadnt checked the Eamon guild site blog for a month or so the last post I saw was from december 2013 and it was that way for quite some time. On the one hand of course, both Matthew Clarke who runs the Eamon guild site and Derric Jeter who mentioned the eamon delux utility are the creators of Eamon deluxe or for all I know involved in development, the man in question is Frank Black. On the other, Derric Jeter is one of the people who has written a new edx adventure, the very good Stronghold of Kadur back in 2013, and was working on supposedly another pretty awsome and large scale one, so if hes back working with edx we can hope the project will get underway once more, and if it can encorporate a talking dosbox all the better.

Talking dosbox pre pre alpha 0.01
Talking dosbox pre pre alpha 0.01 Yesterday I posted a topic about this which was just saying that this will most likely become a thing soon ish, but I think its going to get more views in new releases as it sort of is, as early as its actually coming out.This is a preconfigured version of dosbox Daum that comes with a screen reader and speech all set up to play old 16-bit dos games, even on new 64-bit Windows. For the most part, things work but theres still a lot of room for improvement which will hopefully happen as time permits and as I figure things out. Some basic instructions:Extract and run dosbox.exe. It should take about a few seconds for things to load. You will know when it does as you will hear the jaws startup message, followed by C colon backslash jaws greater. If youve never used a text mode interface, reading up on dos commands may at this point be a good idea, even by typing help and pressing enter which will give all commands, including ones specific to dosbox for things like mounting additional directories or disk images or changing the Cycle speed. As far as screen reader keystrokes go, Some keys are the same as JAWS for windows. You can get to a help mode with insert+1, turn on the jaws cursor with numpad minus and off with numpad plus (you may need to pass these 2 through in NVDA or JAWS for windows as they may intercept them). When the jaws cursor is on, you can review all lines with the arrow keys. Pressing ctrl+slash will enter the jaws menu if you want to change the speech settings. In this menu, left and right move between options, down enters a submenu and pressing enter accepts a change. To add your own games or programs, you can either copy them into the cdrive folder, or mount local directories into dosbox using the mount command, IEmount D C:\users\me\downloads\dos\gameswhich would cause the C:\users\\me\downloads\dos\games folder to become the D: drive in dosbox.< p>To exit, you can either type in exit at the prompt or press control f9. Other keys you can use include control F6, which starts and stops recording to wav in the captures folder, control f11 and f12 which adjust the cycles (how fast the emulator is, anything below 45000 cycles will make the speech quite laggy), and alt f12 which toggles turbo mode.If you ever want to use a different screen reader or try using this with a real or fake hardware synthesizer, you can open dosbox.conf, which is not only where you configure serial ports, but also where you have the autoexec section which includes any commands ran at dosbox start. Ive also included another screen reader, flipper, which may in some cases work better. The speech also seems to pause less with it but screen echo isnt as reliable. If you want to run that instead of JAWS, edit the auto exec section to look something like thismount C cdrivecycles 5C:\flip50\sbtalker /dBLASTERC:\fli p50\f_blastC:\flip50\flipperOther things to be aware of, expanded memory (EMS) doesnt work very well with most programs while any screen reader is on so Ive temporairly turned it off. This means that you only have about 640K of RAM instead of 16MB. Also, because the speech by default is using a soundblaster software synthesizer, programs that play sounds this way will either not play them, or play them but interrupt speech or be angry with you because the soundcard is busy. Music playback through the PC speaker, the FM chip of the soundblaster, midi or other sound outputs should work but wasnt testedRight, having said all this, heres yourdownload linkHave fun.

I guess I could always run it in VMWare or something, but that seems a bit much.

Re: Talking dosbox pre pre alpha 0.01
Re: Talking dosbox pre pre alpha 0.01 Id love a mac version as well and initially I was planning to release one for both platforms. However, Im having trouble getting dosbox daum to run, it was throwing sdl errors at me with wrong architectures. So I looked at Dosbox-X, which doesnt have mac binaries but I tried compiling the code. While the make command seems to have executed, it just kept saying theres nothing to do and didnt compile anything. The official dosbox 0.74 has issues with screen readers with no screen echo and after posting on the vogons forums it looks as though the mainline developers dont really care much for very deep emulation and are perfectly fine with making it do just enough to run games.If you can get any of the unofficial patched dosboxes to compile, i would also be very interested.
