Re: Doxbox -x and idkey and italics, etc.



Hi Harry,

For the font problem, with DOSBox-X 0.83.11 can you try set "ttf.wp" to "XY" instead of "XY4", or use the updated DOSBox-X binary package below instead?

http://cndos.fam.cx/dosware/dosbox-x-update.zip

The setting "ttf.wp=XY4" should work in the updated build. You can also set the TTF word processor from the menu ("Video" => "TTF options" => "TTF word processor").

Meanwhile, I am not quite sure how to run idkey.pm myself, and you can try what Carl has suggested.

Wengier,

Due to your last explanation, I have been able to surmount many, many customization problems and Xy4 under dosbox-x is now running really well (and at 132 x 43, though I have to use 132x43.com in autoexec.bat).

I can't, however, get italics, bold, or bold-italics, despite having those fonts given as they are supposed to be in the conf file:
ttf.font                = V:\fonts\Consola
ttf.fontbold            = v:\fonts\Consolab
ttf.fontital            = v:\fonts\Consolai
ttf.fontboit            = v:\fonts\Consolaz

and despite having ttf.wp set to XY4

Instead of the italics and bold, I get the color coding of Xy's MoDes.

The other problem is that idkey.pm (and the idkey frame in Xywwweb.u2) won't run and give a strange error:
Unexpected Error: No x:\dosbox-x.kbdsw fbx load file - Abort

Any ideas would be appreciated.
