Dear all.

intro: it seems, that I made mistakes, maybe the reason is my bad english.

Status: I like to make *.conf files inside the Game path. And of cause, the name of them have to get the Gamemame like that.

The attachment Siedler mit Dosbox.conf is no longer available

Siedler mit Dosbox.bat => C:\Spiele\dosbox\dosbox "C:\Spiele\SIEDLER\Siedler mit Dosbox.conf" (only one attachment is allowed.
But it does not work. I thing that the mistake is, that only dosbox.conf is allowed.

Please help.

Regards
Carsten

1. we have Dosbox forums, please use them (I'll move this topic)

2. you need to use the command line argument -conf

C:\Spiele\dosbox\dosbox -conf "C:\Spiele\SIEDLER\Siedler mit Dosbox.conf"

Thanks For changing.

Here my tryings:
1. Correcting the .bat file to :
C:\Spiele\dosbox\dosbox -conf "C:\Spiele\SIEDLER\Siedler mit Dosbox.conf"
2. Run "Reset Options.bat"
=>
CONFIG:Loading primary settings from config file C:\Spiele\SIEDLER\Siedler mit Dosbox.conf
MIDI:Opened device:win32
DOS keyboard layout loaded with main language code GR for layout gr

.conf text:
mount c "C:\Spiele\SIEDLER"
c:
sied.exe
[autoexec]
fullscreen=true

==>>It does not work.
There must be an other mistake.

The stuff above [autoexec] needs to be below and the stuff below needs to be above

actually fullscreen=true needs to be below [sdl]. You should look at the default dosbox.conf for a more verbose config which explains stuff. For example that the commands needs to be in the autoexec section (meaning below [autoexec].

But from your smiley I guess you made it work now?
