[00:10] Brewster asked me about the mute button on DOSBOX [00:10] Like "how do I get sound" [00:10] And I went "you get sound and that button has no effect" [00:10] I was hoping he'd go "that should be fixed" [00:11] so I could get "GIVE US ONE STINKING DEVELOPER" [01:00] *** naTmeg_ has joined #jsmess [01:00] *** naTmeg has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [01:23] *** naTmeg_ is now known as naTmeg [01:29] jvilk: Thanks for that BrowserFS fix. [01:29] Hey, naTmeg [01:29] Glad to have you hanging around. [01:29] (We have people hang around a lot in here.) [01:33] I'm thinking of finally doing that thing of gathering up all the Windows Calculators. [02:53] SketchCow: thanks. pretty tired now, need a rest. cya.. [02:53] *** naTmeg has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving) [03:13] Rough plan with amiga items [03:13] - Wait to next week [03:13] - Undark sets [03:13] - Yank out screenshots [03:13] - Dark again [03:13] Download to do a quick "best of" (i.e. they look good, aren't repetitive) [03:13] Upload the resulting crazytown shots [03:14] cool, so it'll keep all the same sorting and view stats and everything [03:14] Oh, no. It'll be using a different method. [03:14] But I can do something with it. [03:15] Anyway, it'll be a nice thing [03:15] ah damn. I was using the number of views as a filter for "games people cared about" :D [03:23] Nah [03:24] Also, that's a very VERY poor metric [03:24] You know, 4 day sample and many didn't work [03:24] Bubble Bobble had most views and it didn't work! [03:26] heh true. but at least it's a vote of what people WANT to work [03:43] *** db48x has joined #jsmess [12:15] *** davidar has joined #jsmess [14:36] *** naTmeg has joined #jsmess [21:52] *** odie5533 has joined #jsmess [21:52] Hi [21:52] hey odie5533 [21:53] so I think for a windows item you need to set at least the following metadata fields: [21:53] emulator: dosbox [21:53] emulator_ext: zip [21:53] emulator_start: c:\windows.bat [21:54] wait hold on, scratch that [21:54] emulator: dosbox [21:54] emulator_ext: zip [21:55] emulator_start: d:\runapp [21:55] dosbox_drive_d: [21:56] oh no, not path to app, it's "emularity_win31/win31.zip" [21:56] (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] I checked another item too [21:57] it just has d:\runapp [21:57] ah and the emularity thing yeah I missed that [21:57] so the 4 entries [21:57] I will give it a try [21:58] cool, lemme know how it works [21:58] Sorta off-topic, but is there a way to set the default thumbnail to be the animated gif I made? [21:59] hmm, SketchCow would be the one to ask about that, I normally just let the automated screenshotter do its magic [22:01] those 4 fields did it! [22:05] excellent. if you want it added to a collection I think sketchcow or whoever owns the collection can help with that [22:06] oh it looks like I might be able to add things to softwarelibrary_win3_showcase if it's a particularly nice example [22:08] hah, nah. it's not worth showcasing [22:16] 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] which is an option in the drop-down [22:17] ah cool [22:34] http://digitize.archiveteam.org/index.php/Making_Software_Emulate_on_IA [22:40] Thanks for the link. It covers regular dos games as well which is good [23:28] animated gifs are not thumbnails anymore
