Brewster asked me about the mute button on DOSBOX |
|

🔗
|
SketchCow |
Like "how do I get sound" |
|
00:10
🔗
|
SketchCow |
And I went "you get sound and that button has no effect" |
|
00:10
🔗
|
SketchCow |
I was hoping he'd go "that should be fixed" |
|
00:11
🔗
|
SketchCow |
so I could get "GIVE US ONE STINKING DEVELOPER" |

Rough plan with amiga items |
|
03:13
🔗
|
SketchCow |
- Wait to next week |
|
03:13
🔗
|
SketchCow |
- Undark sets |
|
03:13
🔗
|
SketchCow |
- Yank out screenshots |
|
03:13
🔗
|
SketchCow |
- Dark again |
|
03:13
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Download to do a quick "best of" (i.e. they look good, aren't repetitive) |
|
03:13
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Upload the resulting crazytown shots |
|
03:14
🔗
|
bai |
cool, so it'll keep all the same sorting and view stats and everything |
|
03:14
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Oh, no. It'll be using a different method. |
|
03:14
🔗
|
SketchCow |
But I can do something with it. |
|
03:15
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Anyway, it'll be a nice thing |
|
03:15
🔗
|
bai |
ah damn. I was using the number of views as a filter for "games people cared about" :D |
|
03:23
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Nah |
|
03:24
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Also, that's a very VERY poor metric |
|
03:24
🔗
|
SketchCow |
You know, 4 day sample and many didn't work |
|
03:24
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Bubble Bobble had most views and it didn't work! |
|
03:26
🔗
|
bai |
heh true. but at least it's a vote of what people WANT to work |

Hi |
|
21:52
🔗
|
bai |
hey odie5533 |
|
21:53
🔗
|
bai |
so I think for a windows item you need to set at least the following metadata fields: |
|
21:53
🔗
|
bai |
emulator: dosbox |
|
21:53
🔗
|
bai |
emulator_ext: zip |
|
21:53
🔗
|
bai |
emulator_start: c:\windows.bat |
|
21:54
🔗
|
bai |
wait hold on, scratch that |
|
21:54
🔗
|
bai |
emulator: dosbox |
|
21:54
🔗
|
bai |
emulator_ext: zip |
|
21:55
🔗
|
bai |
emulator_start: d:\runapp <executablename> |
|
21:55
🔗
|
bai |
dosbox_drive_d: <path to your app's zip> |
|
21:56
🔗
|
bai |
oh no, not path to app, it's "emularity_win31/win31.zip" |
|
21:56
🔗
|
bai |
(I think there might actually be some documentation on this somewhere but I'm just looking at how other items are set up) |
|
21:57
🔗
|
odie5533 |
I checked another item too |
|
21:57
🔗
|
odie5533 |
it just has d:\runapp <executable name> |
|
21:57
🔗
|
odie5533 |
ah and the emularity thing yeah I missed that |
|
21:57
🔗
|
odie5533 |
so the 4 entries |
|
21:57
🔗
|
odie5533 |
I will give it a try |
|
21:58
🔗
|
bai |
cool, lemme know how it works |
|
21:58
🔗
|
odie5533 |
Sorta off-topic, but is there a way to set the default thumbnail to be the animated gif I made? |
|
21:59
🔗
|
bai |
hmm, SketchCow would be the one to ask about that, I normally just let the automated screenshotter do its magic |
|
22:01
🔗
|
odie5533 |
those 4 fields did it! |
|
22:05
🔗
|
bai |
excellent. if you want it added to a collection I think sketchcow or whoever owns the collection can help with that |
|
22:06
🔗
|
bai |
oh it looks like I might be able to add things to softwarelibrary_win3_showcase if it's a particularly nice example |
|
22:08
🔗
|
odie5533 |
hah, nah. it's not worth showcasing |
|
22:16
🔗
|
odie5533 |
bai: I was able to set the screenshot to the gif by changing the file's Format in the Metadata Editor to "Emulator Screenshot" |
|
22:17
🔗
|
odie5533 |
which is an option in the drop-down |
|
22:17
🔗
|
bai |
ah cool |
