They added a lot of nice tweaks this time around. Sound card support for Kingdom O' Magic is better, among a lot of other things. Steadily they head towards perfect hardware emulation.

My favorite non-sequiter ending ever.

Yeah, these sorts of scenes happen when you solve a lot of the puzzles in the game...

Some good sensible advice.

Awesome, downloaded the new version. DOSBox versions aren't too frequent, but when they do come they're always real improvements...

[Great Rumbler]

I'm not sure if I have any games that will benefit from this, but I'll go ahead an download it anyway.

So when is dos box shit going to hit version 1? So many years and no RC does not feel me with much confidence.

It's just a version number ya know. Their standard appears to be "when it is machine perfect", and it isn't there yet since it's a LOT of different bits of old hardware it has to emulate. Each update gets it a little closer, and it's VERY good at what it does. It lacks a GUI, so find your own frontend. I use D-Fend Reloaded.
