Dosbox-X core?

Open emxd opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Hello,

first of all, thanks for all the work! I was just wondering, would it be difficult to integrate the dosbox-x fork with retroarch? If you already have the svn mainline, how much work would it take to also integrate dosbox-x? Dosbox-x is interesting in the sense that it has the best Win9x support, the other forks/SVN are very spotty on 9x.

I assume Core improvements, which are not RetroArch-related, will be acceptable for upstreaming into DOSBox-X itself. Then going forward the two projects can be in sync with Core having the RetroArch-related additions?

Core features, not related to RetroArch, missing in DOSBox-X:

  • BASSMIDI and SFZ
  • Pinhack
  • VSTi / Sound Canvas VA (Native MIDI)?
  • On-screen virtual keyboard. Ported over by sonninnos from the UAE and VICE cores. ? That seems to be RetroArch-related, actually
