April 1 and Tandy...
I suspect a spoof

New in This Version
Tandy graphics emulation fixed to accept 8 bits for vertical total and
vertical display CRTC registers, which is needed for the tweaked
graphics mode used by Math Rabbit to display correctly.
INT 10h will no longer fill in three fields in the BIOS data area
(video CTL, char height, and video switches) unless the machine type
is EGA or VGA. Those fields do not exist otherwise. Certain games like
Mindscape's "Road Runner" game require those fields to be zero as part
of it's Tandy detection routine.
PCjr mode will omit the reserved graphics RAM MCB block, and will
subtract 16KB from the top at the BIOS level, if emulating 128KB
system memory or less.

Hi all,

emulator, as usual there are many improvements and other fixes in this new release compared with the
previous version 0.83.11. You can find the DOSBox-X 0.83.12 release notes here:

Windows installer and Linux Flatpak package for DOSBox-X 0.83.12 are officially available to ease
the installation, in addition to other packages including portable packages for Windows, macOS and
DOS. You will find the official downloads for them from the DOSBox-X homepage:

You can also download a Windows portable version of DOSBox-X 0.83.12 from:

It has the TrueType font output, clipboard device (CLIP$) and the dynamic_x86 CPU core set by
default which are more optimized for XyWrite.
Thanks a lot for your support!
