you may change the platform toolset to v140 or v141 respectively.
Libraries such as SDL, freetype, libpdcurses, libpng and zlib are already included,
but support for FluidSynth MIDI Synthesizer is not included or enabled by default
for Visual Studio builds.
and as of DOSBox-X 0.83.6 support for FluidSynth MIDI Synthesizer is included for x86
and x64 builds by default.
You can enable FluidSynth support by setting up vcpkg to install the build dependency.
vcpkg is a command-line package manager for C/C++ by Microsoft, and it is freely
available from (with install instructions): https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg
You can maually enable FluidSynth support for other platforms by setting up vcpkg to
install the build dependency. vcpkg is a command-line package manager for C/C++ by
Microsoft, and it is freely available from (with install instructions):
https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg
Once vcpkg is installed and bootstrapped, open Command Prompt or PowerShell, and run:
.\vcpkg integrate install
.\vcpkg install fluidsynth:x64-windows
.\vcpkg install fluidsynth:arm64-windows
The above assumes Windows x64 build. For x86 build use "fluidsynth:x86-windows" instead of
"fluidsynth:x64-windows". For ARM64 build please use "fluidsynth:arm64-windows" instead.
The above will install FluidSynth for the Windows ARM64 builds. Then open the file
./vs2015/config.h and change "#undef C_FLUIDSYNTH" to "#define C_FLUIDSYNTH 1" for it.
Then open ./vs2015/config.h and change "#undef C_FLUIDSYNTH" to "#define C_FLUIDSYNTH 1".
Build the source code. FluidSynth support should now be enabled for DOSBox-X.
Build the source code. FluidSynth support should be enabled for the DOSBox-X build.
Set "mididevice=fluidsynth" in the [midi] section of DOSBox-X's configuration file
(dosbox-x.conf) along with required soundfont file (e.g. FluidR3_GM.sf2) to use it.
