Hello,

I hope this is the right forum to ask questions, I didn't see any game question/support related one.

Pretty much like the title states... How do I input the Jazz Jackrabbit cheats?

Now I don't know if this is the right way to input the codes on dosbox. I started using computers from on Windows 95 so I've never used actual dos because it's before my time. I've played some games in the past though my dad started them up for me and I've been having the urge to replay some of them these days so that's how I found dosbox. It's all very complicated to me you might understand.

Everywhere it states: P + Backspace followed by the cheatcode. Sounds simple enough but it doesn't seem to work on dosbox for me. For me the following things happen:

Situation 1:
Press P - Pauses the game
Press Backspace - Unpauses the game

Situation 2:
Press P + Backspace - Pressing another button (from the code) will unpause the game

Situation 3:
Press P - Pauses the game
Press Backspace - Nothing happens - In fact, the game or dosbox seem to be stuck. Pressing Backspace 2 or 3 times more mostly fixes it, sadly by unpausing the game

Situation 4:
Press P + Backspace same time - Nothing happens - In fact, the game or dosbox seem to be stuck. Pressing Backspace 2 or 3 times more mostly fixes it, sadly by unpausing the game
Situation 3/different attempt:
Hold P + Backspace then try to input the cheatcode while having them pressed - Pause/unpauses the game non stop for holding down P

I only want to use a minor code to get past a very annoying jumping part in a game. If it's too much trouble helping me I will just skip the whole level/chapter/episode whole I guess.

Many thanks in advance either way!
