DontPanic demo (1993) is missing the fixed GTSR.exe #5006

Closed Dutchmagic closed 2 weeks ago

Describe the bug

Observation:

According to the .conf file, there should be a GUSMOD folder with a fixed GTSR.EXE file in it - unfortunately I'm unable to find this anywhere in the repo.

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

Download the DontPanic demo from Scene.org (https://files.scene.org/view/mirrors/flerp/.1/DEMO.'93/TechnoPhob93/demo/dontpani.zip) Use the dosconfig file from the repository: https://github.com/joncampbell123/demotest/tree/master/unpacked/ftp.scene.org/pub/parties/1993/technophobia93/demo/dontpani.zip Notice that the GUSMOD folder is empty

Expected behavior

Expected behavior: GTSR.EXE should be in the GUSMOD folder from the repo. The demo should work as expected.

DOSBox-X NEVER provides files that you expect in a C drive so you have to fetch and put it yourself.

Dutchmagic commented 1 month ago

According to the CONF files, it's a fixed .exe that was created by the X-team?

Dutchmagic commented 1 month ago

As an example - look at the DOSCONF for the FLOP 1995 demo. In order to make this demo work, a TSR was created and added to the repo. For the DontPanic demo, there should have been a GUSMOD, but that file is no longer in the repo.

maron2000 commented 1 month ago

That's a problem of the demotest side, not DOSBox-X, right? DOSBox-X never follow up what is missing.

Edit: Fixed the name of the repository, and added the link.

It’s Jon’s demo dosconfig repo that’s missing the file yes. I asked on discord if I should file a ticket, which I then did.

maron2000 commented 1 month ago

You should report to the appropriate repository. This is the third time I'm mentioning, this is NOT a problem on the DOSBox-X side.

Dutchmagic commented 1 month ago

I’ll talk to him on discord. Didn’t know I could open a ticket against his releases demo repo.
