DOSBox Portable freeware - The Latest User Reviews
DOSBox Portable freeware - The Latest Versions History
2024.10.01 Oct 2, 2024 New Release Allow the ".inst" extension for CUE sheets. (Allofich)
Add SET /FIRST, a DOSBox-X extension, that takes the specified variable if it exists and moves it to the front of the environment block. (joncampbell123).
SET command processing has been cleaned up and streamlined.
Added /ERASE command line switch to clear the environment block (DOSBox-X extension). (joncampbell123).
VESA BIOS: Add new option to adjust reported linear framebuffer address by a specific number of pixels. This is needed by "Out of Control" by Contract which for whatever reason, will always draw to the LFB base minus 128 bytes. This option makes it possible to correct the demo graphics. (joncampbell123).
Gravis Ultrasound: Officially, registers 0x0-0xF, the voice control registers, are documented to have a 0x0-0xF write and 0x80-0x8F read alias. Unofficially, according to the behavior of 1997 demo "Out of Control" by Contract, all GUS registers have a N and (N+0x80) alias, or at least register 0x4C, and you can read them back from either index. Or else the demo fails to detect the GUS. So add this alias, but only if enabled in dosbox.conf. Real hardware testing is required to know if the actual GUS behaves this way and which versions. (joncampbell123).
Move the INT 3 default vector to well within the initial 16 bytes of the DOS kernel, away from the List of Lists and SFT.
The previous placement caused certain versions of Windows 3.2 (yes, the Chinese version) to crash on startup. (joncampbell123).
When using the running program to name screenshots and such, filter out all invalid characters so that Windows users can take snapshots even if junk characters are there (joncampbell123).
DOS FAT driver: If INT 13h reports disk change, adapt floppy disk geometry to new disk image according to media byte. This allows DS_BLISS to present it's 720K fake floppy even if the user initially mounted a 1.44MB floppy to drive A: (joncampbell123).
INT 10 mode list: Add "pitch"
0.74.3 Jul 3, 2019 New Release Fixed that a very long line inside a bat file would overflow the parsing buffer. (CVE-2019-7165 by Alexandre Bartel)
Added a basic permission system so that a program running inside DOSBox can't access the contents of /proc (e.g. /proc/self/mem) when / or /proc were (to be) mounted. (CVE-2019-12594 by Alexandre Bartel)
Several other fixes for out of bounds access and buffer overflows.
Some fixes to the OpenGL rendering.
0.74.2 Sep 3, 2018 New Release Rewrite auto/max cycles algorithm to work better with windows 7, other OSes might benefit as well.
Update 64bit recompiler to work on OSX and Linux.
Several improvements to make the recompilers work with newer compilers and add some workarounds about clang confusing itself.
Fix several variables being the wrong size in the recompiler.
