Hi PerryRhodan, just make sure you're using the latest DBGL version, should work fine.

Here's another beta build with a few small changes: Automatic reload of main window when certain settings are changed, negating the requirement to restart DBGL; Improved default template for 'Tandy 2500SX' to use machine=vgaonly and tandy=on instead of machine=tandy (Neville) All the latest files . …

Looks like your dbgl.jar is not up-to-date, use this.

any idea? Yep, thanks for the heads up. It should be fixed in this new beta build, and I've implemented a rudimentary 'dark mode' for Windows users. Quite a lot of GUI code changes had to be made, so if you spot anything out of the ordinary please let me know. You can enable the dark theme via File …

Thanks for the information gbbbs, can you please try again with this new beta build? In other news: DBGL is moving to https://dbgl.org. The old location will remain available for the coming time. Existing DBGL users may want to edit their settings.conf and change the line endpoint=http://www. …

gbbbs, not sure I understand your problem. Can you explain _exactly_ when DBGL is crashing, maybe with a screenshot? Or better yet, start DBGL with dbglcons.cmd and share the output of the stacktrace after the crash.

Yes, you can simply select multiple .ima files in the 'mount' dialog to imgmount them. Use ctrl-F4 to change the active image. Keep in mind, though, that multiple floppy imgmount only works in recent DOSBox SVN builds (or ECE, DOSBox-X, DOSBox Staging) as this feature is not available in 0.74.

Hi _Rob, did you replace all jar files in the DBGL lib/ subdirectory? Strange though, looks like its trying to load the SWT v4934win32 variant.. Do you have multiple swt*.jar files in your lib/ folder, maybe? What Linux distribution are you using?

More updates in beta10: Updated (the 3 db/mobygames.*) MetropolisLauncher database files for HSQLDB 2.6.0; Use ~/.local/share/dbgl for data files on Linux systems, and ~/Library/dbgl on MacOS (_Rob). Linux users might have to manually move any existing files to the new location like so: mkdir ~/. …

DBGL is no longer starting... This is with 093beta9. Any idea what may be causing this? I have java-11-openjdk-headless and java-11-openjdk packages installed, and it was working until a few days ago. So I'm guessing either some system update broke things, or a dbgl database file got corrupted? …

Hi to everyone! I often get an error "Argument cannot be null" and DBGL crashes when I try to edit a game profile to add screenshots from the Metropolis Launcher MobyGames database. I'm using the DBGL 0.93beta8 version and my platform Java is up to date (on Windows 10 Pro). This problem doesn't …

Hi Ronald, I'm running into a strange and unwanted directory creation problem in DBGL093beta8, and probably versions 090 onwards in Puppy Linux. I am using a 'frugal' install of DevuanPup64, on a Panasonic cf 52 mk3 laptop (2core duo, 2.3Ghz, 4 GB ram). So when I attempt to start a session of DBGL …

Does anyone know why I am getting the message Couldn't open file "O:\DBGL\DOSBox-0.74-3\dosbox.conf" whenever I try and open a game or edit a profile? DBGL requires each configured DOSBox version to be able to load its defaults from dosbox.conf. Does the file at O:\DBGL\DOSBox-0.74-3\dosbox.conf …

That is still possible by adding mt32 in the 'generic' dynamic options in File->Preferences->Dynamic Options. These are shared by all DOSBox versions that are not using version-specific settings. However, I'd rather not add these kind of options to DBGL's defaults as it would likely lead to …
