Commit 7991 broke DOSBox on OS X. DOSBox still uses SDL 1.2 and I'm providing daily snapshots for a while now and thus have been dependent on the post SDL 1.2.15 fixes. DOSBox usually uses a config file in ~/Library/Preferences but if you place a config named dosbox.conf in the same folder as the app bundle, DOSBox will use that config instead. I only just today realized that this is no longer working and traced it back to revision 7991. So a built of SDL 1.2 branch before rev 7991 allows DOSBox to launch with the in-same-folder config on OS X 10.6 - 10.12 (tested on VMs of 10.6, 10.8, 10.9 and real 10.12 machine). Still correctly working DOSBox https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7737184/Dosbox/DOSBox-0.74-1.dmg and my broken SVN built at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7737184/Dosbox/Dosbox-Snapshot-bad.dmg A test config is a plain text file, must be named dosbox.conf and can just have these two lines: [autoexec] FOOBAR (it will say illegal command FOOBAR when launched) Now I know... SDL 1.2 end of life... etc... but this is annoying :( _______________________________________________ SDL mailing list [email protected] http://lists.libsdl.org/listinfo.cgi/sdl-libsdl.org
