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 |
