AEON v0.58 is released. Aeon is an application that allows you to run old 16-bit DOS applications in modern versions of Windows. It emulates much of the hardware of a PC with a 386 processor, including a VGA card, SoundBlaster card, General MIDI music device, and keyboard/mouse input. It also provides an implementation of most of the commonly-used DOS functions, mouse driver, and an expanded memory manager.
AEON Requirements
* Windows XP SP3/Vista/7
* 2GHz processor or equivalent (dual-core or better recommended)
* Direct3D-capable video card
* 16-bit real-mode DOS program to run
* Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 (will be installed automatically if you don't already have it)
AEON v0.58 changelog
| Hey, I’m still working on this! Who knew? Unfortunately, there’s not much improvement with overall compatibility in this release. I got sick of staring at and debugging disassembled programs, so I started adding things to the user interface and refactoring my code instead. The usual disclaimers apply: this hasn’t been tested much and may not work on your system at all. Use at your own risk. # Fixed memory leak when launching more than one program without restarting Aeon in between # Minor performance improvements # Lots of DOS process management fixes # Command interpreter is now less of a kludge and uses interrupt-driven I/O like everything else # Added configuration support and configuration editor – not complete yet # Can now change drive mountings while emulator is running (with sometimes disastrous results – use only for disk swapping!) # Integer divide-by-zero CPU exceptions now handled more efficiently # Added command prompt change current drive command # Added some primitive MSCDEX support – a _few_ CD-based programs may work now # Fixed bug in LMSW instruction # Fixed bug in DOS get file attributes function # Added support for launching DOS programs/configuration files via command line # Fixed intermittent crashing due to bug in mouse driver callback # Fixed some issues with how Aeon handles invalid MS-DOS file names # Lots of internal code cleanup and refactoring |
