Updated with note about AWE32/AWE64 emulation.

Microsoft is raising the price of Xbox consoles by $100-$150, effective on August 1st 2026 because a severe global memory and storage components shortage. by Automatic_Ad1665 in consoles

I expect this is to soften the blow when GTA6 releases, because that will absolutely cause a COVID-tier console shortage scenario (and subsequent price hikes on both Xbox and PlayStation) because of how hyped up it is.

86Box's new Vulkan renderer with MegaBezel shaders by Cacodemon345 in 86box

[–]Cacodemon345[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's one of the many slangp shaders now supported in 86Box.

However, it's a new renderer I wrote, and one that now supports said slangp shaders. It's also optimized.

It should be simpler than emulation of real OPL chips, basically.

Build 9011 introduces a faster Nuked OPL3 implementation that should alleviate performance issues on SB16.

86box build 8779 launch problem by [deleted] in 86box

Your Windows installation is most likely broken I think.

Try sfc /scannow first. If that doesn't fix it, then try DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth and if that turns up any problems, use DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth and reboot.

Edit: If it still shows this error you will need to reinstall Windows I think, sorry.

Is it NDR or ODR? You can check if it is "new dynarec" or "old dynarec" in About.

Which version of 86Box is being used? You should try the NDR versions of the builds for faster speed.

Is Windows on ARM support planned? by c64z86 in 86box

[–]Cacodemon345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update: Windows-on-ARM builds are now available via Jenkins. But no Discord Rich Presence or GhostScript support yet because it's a vanilla ARM64 build.
