Hello,

I'm trying to play Super Street Fighter II Turbo under DOSBox. It runs really good, except for one problem: I can only press two or three keys at a time because of keyboard restrictions. I need to be able to press more than that simultaneously for some of the special moves. I played the game on MAME and it had no key restrictions whatsoever. So the problem must reside within DOSBox.

How do I modify DOSBox so that I can press more than two or three keys at a time?

I don't think MAME emulates DOS yet so I guess that in mame you ran the arcade version. In dosbox you've probably run the DOS version...so they are different games.
Anyway the problem may be in dosbox or in the game. I don't know. Just wanted to point out that you're running different games in MAME and dosbox.

You could try running the game in native DOS. If the problem is also present in a native DOS enviroment, it has to be the game's fault. Perhaps you can try it, just to be sure.
