Overview:
Amiga 68k port of DosBox v0.74.
DOSBox is a DOS-emulator that uses the SDL-library which makes DOSBox very
easy to port to different platforms.
DOSBox has already been ported to many different platforms, such as Windows,
BeOS, Linux, MacOS and AmigaOS.
Unfortunately this special optimized 68k port is still very slow on real
classic hardware.
Requirements:
1) An RTG Amiga.
2) 68060 processor or better.
3) 64 MB of RAM.
4) AHI installed and configured (see links section below).
5) CAMD library installed and configured for native MIDI playback (see links
section below).
6) Some old PC games or demos.
Features:
* SDL based port
* Native MIDI support (CAMD)
* AHI Sound support
* Fullscreen and window mode support
Configuration Options:
The 'closewb' setting can be used to close the Workbench.
When running from the Shell you must specify a stack of at least 300,000.
The AHI device used will be the one configured in your AHI Prefs (Unit 0).
You will need to install the CAMD library if you want to use an external MIDI
device.
The DOSBox log file will tell you which core it is actually using (may be
different to the config setting).
Press ALT+ENTER to switch between fullscreen and windowed mode.
Press CTRL+m to toggle mouse capture when running in a window.
Performance Considerations:
1) The number of cycles you set for the CPU emulation is critical, too high
will stall the emulation.
2) The fastest core to use is 'simple' but it's also the least compatible and
may crash.
3) If you have a Blizzard you should really be using BlizKick, Apollo users
should be using RemApollo.
4) Fast File System isn't, use PFS3 instead.
5) Use v4.18 of AHI as the later versions are too slow on real hardware
6) If you are using Paula, stick with the 'FAST' 8 bit Mono/Stereo++ modes for
(AHI prefs).
7) A 16 bit sound card *might* be faster with a 16 bit mode (AHI prefs).
8) Running in a window with an 8 bit screen mode will be slower.
Limitations:
1) No network support.
2) No physical CDROM support.
