# This is the configuration file for dosbox-staging (v0.76.0-1+ubuntu18.04). # Lines starting with a '#' character are comments. [sdl] # fullscreen: Start DOSBox directly in fullscreen. # Press Alt-Enter to switch back to window. # display: Number of display to use; values depend on OS and user settings. # fullresolution: What resolution to use for fullscreen: 'original', 'desktop' # or a fixed size (e.g. 1024x768). # windowresolution: Set window size to be used when running in windowed mode: # default: Select the best option based on your # environment and other settings. # original: Resize window to the resolution picked by # the emulated program. # resizable: Make the emulator window resizable. # This is an experimental option, works only with # output=opengl and glshader=sharp (or none) # : Scale the window content to the indicated # dimensions, in WxH format. For example: 1024x768. # Scaling is not performed for output=surface. # output: What video system to use for output. # Possible values: surface, texture, texturenb, texturepp, opengl, openglnb, openglpp. # texture_renderer: Choose a renderer driver when using a texture output mode. # Use texture_renderer=auto for an automatic choice. # Possible values: auto, opengl, opengles2, software. # capture_mouse: Choose a mouse control method: # onclick: The mouse will be captured after the first # click inside the window. # onstart: The mouse is captured immediately on start # (similar to real DOS). # seamless: The mouse can move seamlessly in and out of DOSBox # window and cannot be captured. # nomouse: The mouse is disabled and hidden without any # input sent to the game. # Choose how middle-clicks are handled (second parameter): # middlegame: Middle-clicks are sent to the game # (Ctrl-F10 uncaptures the mouse). # middlerelease: Middle-clicks are used to uncapture the mouse # (not sent to the game). However, middle-clicks # will be sent to the game in fullscreen or when # seamless control is set. # Ctrl-F10 will also uncapture the mouse. # Defaults (if not present or incorrect): seamless middlerelease # Possible values: seamless, onclick, onstart, nomouse. # sensitivity: Mouse sensitivity. The optional second parameter specifies vertical sensitivity (e.g. 100,-50). # raw_mouse_input: Enable this setting to bypass your operating system's mouse # acceleration and sensitivity settings. This works in # fullscreen or when the mouse is captured in window mode. # waitonerror: Wait before closing the console if dosbox has an error. # priority: Priority levels for dosbox. Second entry behind the comma is for when dosbox is not focused/minimized. # pause is only valid for the second entry. # Possible values: lowest, lower, normal, higher, highest, pause. # mapperfile: File used to load/save the key/event mappings from. # Resetmapper only works with the default value. # screensaver: Use 'allow' or 'block' to override the SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER # environment variable (which usually blocks the OS screensaver # while the emulator is running). # Possible values: auto, allow, block. fullscreen = false display = 0 fullresolution = desktop windowresolution = 800x600 output = opengl texture_renderer = auto capture_mouse = seamless middlerelease sensitivity = 100 raw_mouse_input = false waitonerror = true priority = higher,normal mapperfile = mapper-v2.map screensaver = auto [dosbox] # language: Select another language file. # machine: The type of machine DOSBox tries to emulate. # Possible values: hercules, cga, cga_mono, tandy, pcjr, ega, vgaonly, svga_s3, svga_et3000, svga_et4000, svga_paradise, vesa_nolfb, vesa_oldvbe. # captures: Directory where things like wave, midi, screenshot get captured. # memsize: Amount of memory DOSBox has in megabytes. # This value is best left at its default to avoid problems with some games, # though few games might require a higher value. # There is generally no speed advantage when raising this value. # startup_verbosity: Controls verbosity prior to displaying the program: # | Show splash | Show welcome | Show early stdout # high | yes | yes | yes # medium | no | yes | yes # low | no | no | yes # quiet | no | no | no # auto | 'low' if exec or dir is passed, otherwise 'high' # Possible values: high, medium, low, quiet, auto. language = machine = svga_s3 captures = capture memsize = 16 startup_verbosity = high [render] # frameskip: How many frames DOSBox skips before drawing one. # aspect: Scales the vertical resolution to produce a 4:3 display aspect # ratio, matching that of the original standard-definition monitors # for which the majority of DOS games were designed. This setting # only affects video modes that use non-square pixels, such as # 320x200 or 640x400; where as square-pixel modes, such as 640x480 # and 800x600, will be displayed as-is. # monochrome_palette: Select default palette for monochrome display. # Works only when emulating hercules or cga_mono. # You can also cycle through available colours using F11. # Possible values: white, paperwhite, green, amber. # scaler: Scaler used to enlarge/enhance low resolution modes. # If 'forced' is appended, then the scaler will be used even if # the result might not be desired. # Note that some scalers may use black borders to fit the image # within your configured display resolution. If this is # undesirable, try either a different scaler or enabling # fullresolution output. # Possible values: none, normal2x, normal3x, advmame2x, advmame3x, advinterp2x, advinterp3x, hq2x, hq3x, 2xsai, super2xsai, supereagle, tv2x, tv3x, rgb2x, rgb3x, scan2x, scan3x. # glshader: Either 'none' or a GLSL shader name. Works only with # OpenGL output. Can be either an absolute path, a file # in the 'glshaders' subdirectory of the DOSBox # configuration directory, or one of the built-in shaders: # advinterp2x, advinterp3x, advmame2x, advmame3x, # crt-easymode-flat, crt-fakelottes-flat, rgb2x, rgb3x, # scan2x, scan3x, tv2x, tv3x, sharp (default). frameskip = 0 aspect = true monochrome_palette = white scaler = none glshader = default [cpu] # core: CPU Core used in emulation. auto will switch to dynamic if available and # appropriate. # Possible values: auto, dynamic, normal, simple. # cputype: CPU Type used in emulation. auto is the fastest choice. # Possible values: auto, 386, 386_slow, 486_slow, pentium_slow, 386_prefetch. # cycles: Amount of instructions DOSBox tries to emulate each millisecond. # Setting this value too high results in sound dropouts and lags. # Cycles can be set in 3 ways: # 'auto' tries to guess what a game needs. # It usually works, but can fail for certain games. # 'fixed #number' will set a fixed amount of cycles. This is what you usually # need if 'auto' fails (Example: fixed 4000). # 'max' will allocate as much cycles as your computer is able to # handle. # Possible values: auto, fixed, max. # cycleup: Amount of cycles to decrease/increase with keycombos.(CTRL-F11/CTRL-F12) # cycledown: Setting it lower than 100 will be a percentage. core = auto cputype = auto cycles = auto cycleup = 10 cycledown = 20 [mixer] # nosound: Enable silent mode, sound is still emulated though. # rate: Mixer sample rate, setting any device's rate higher than this will probably lower their sound quality. # Possible values: 44100, 48000, 32000, 22050, 16000, 11025, 8000, 49716. # blocksize: Mixer block size, larger blocks might help sound stuttering but sound will also be more lagged. # Possible values: 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192, 512, 256. # prebuffer: How many milliseconds of data to keep on top of the blocksize. nosound = false rate = 44100 blocksize = 1024 prebuffer = 25 [midi] # mididevice: Device that will receive the MIDI data (from the emulated MIDI # interface - MPU-401). # Use 'fluidsynth' to select built-in software synthesiser, # see the fluidsynth section for detailed configuration. # Use 'auto' to pick the first working external device. # Possible values: auto, oss, alsa, fluidsynth, none. # midiconfig: Configuration options for the selected MIDI interface. # This is usually the id or name of the MIDI synthesiser you want # to use (find the id/name with DOS command 'mixer /listmidi'). # - When using the built-in FluidSynth (mididevice = fluidsynth), # this option has no effect. Instead, configure FluidSynth using # the dedicated [fluidsynth] section below. # - When using ALSA, use Linux command 'aconnect -l' to list open # MIDI ports, and select one (for example 'midiconfig=14:0' # for sequencer client 14, port 0). # - When using a Roland MT-32 rev.0 as midi output device, some # games may require a delay in order to prevent MT-32 hardware # buffer overflow issues. In that case, add 'delaysysex', # for example: 'midiconfig=2 delaysysex'. # See the README/Manual for more details. # mpu401: Type of MPU-401 to emulate. # Possible values: intelligent, uart, none. mididevice = auto midiconfig = mpu401 = intelligent [fluidsynth] # soundfont: Path to a SoundFont file in .sf2 format. You can use an # absolute or relative path, or the name of an .sf2 inside # the 'soundfonts' directory within your DOSBox configuration # directory. # An optional percentage will scale the SoundFont's volume. # For example: 'soundfont.sf2 50' will attenuate it by 50 percent. # The scaling percentage can range from 1 to 500. # synth_threads: If set to a value greater than 1, then additional synthesis # threads will be created to take advantage of many CPU cores. # (min 1, max 256) soundfont = default-GM.sf2 synth_threads = 1 [sblaster] # sbtype: Type of Sound Blaster to emulate. 'gb' is Game Blaster. # Possible values: sb1, sb2, sbpro1, sbpro2, sb16, gb, none. # sbbase: The IO address of the Sound Blaster. # Possible values: 220, 240, 260, 280, 2a0, 2c0, 2e0, 300. # irq: The IRQ number of the Sound Blaster. # Possible values: 7, 5, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12. # dma: The DMA number of the Sound Blaster. # Possible values: 1, 5, 0, 3, 6, 7. # hdma: The High DMA number of the Sound Blaster. # Possible values: 1, 5, 0, 3, 6, 7. # sbmixer: Allow the Sound Blaster mixer to modify the DOSBox mixer. # oplmode: Type of OPL emulation.
