timesync.patch (superseeded by coreswitch patch) - This patch was sent to me by
*orz* on the Vogons forum. It adds a new option in the dosbox.conf (you might
have to add it manually) in the cpu section - timesynched=true/false. It allows
the in-game time to be synchronized to actual time, which means you don't have
to bother with cycles option anymore. Just set the cycles high enough (> 50K)
and the game will never use too much CPU. This option can also be toggled
on-the-fly with Control-= when DOSBox is running.
coreswitch.patch (also includes timesync) - A further modification suggested by
*orz*. This patch allows to change CPU core while DOSBox is running! Pressing
Control-1 switches to Normal core, Control-2 switches to Full core, Control-3
to Dynamic core and Control-4 switches to Simple core. It also displays which
core is currently in use and the number of cycles it is able to emulate in the
title bar :D. Updated to support simple core (24.8.2004)!
Note: when timesynched is enabled some things can get jerky, for example intro
section of dope.
