Re: How do you deal with multiple dosbox configurations ?
Posted on 2020-10-14, 12:31
What I like to do on Windows: For most games I use the default config in %LOCALAPPDATA%\DOSBox If some game needs different setting that can be changed at runtime in DOSBox, I create a batch script to start the game. The script runs in DOSBox and sets the DOSBox configuration (usually CPU cycles). …

Did you reinstall 0.74-3 in the same path as before? Maybe something on your system is broken in that specific path.

Sounds like the display cable might be damaged. I recently replaced the cable on my laptop when the backlight would stop working if I moved the display lid even a little (and eventually it stopped working completely).
Re: CANT UNDERSTAND THE UNIVBE SOFTWARE

In any case, if you are trying to run this game under DOSBox, UniVBE should not be necessary because UniVBE was only necessary for real hardware. Actually, I think there were some graphics issues in DOSBox 0.74 with this game unless you set: machine=svga_et4000 and run univbe.exe before starting …

Use a file manager or terminal to delete all files in ~/dosprogs/PAL_DIR/DISK1 and copy the contents of the next disk there. After that press CTRL-F4 in DOSBox to update the directory cache.
