Slightly long story, but I need to use multiple floppy disks in a game. Seems like the way to go is to use IMGMOUNT and ctrl-F4. However IMGMOUNT only accepts multiple image files if they are CD images. (Manual says "Specifying a number of image files is only allowed for CD-ROM images," and I have found that to be true.) OTOH, the documentation for ctrl-F4 says it will "change between mounted floppy/CD images." Is there a way to mount two floppy images so that I can swap between them using crtl-F4? I've tried mounting one floppy image as a: and another as b:, but in that case ctrl-F4 has no effect.
Story is this: I'm playing an old text game, Voodoo Island from Mindscape, using DOSBox on a win10 machine. The original game was sold on a floppy, and to save your game it expected you to take the game floppy out of the drive and put in a blank one. It refuses to save to the game disk. So I need to emulate the exchange of game disk and save disk. I'm also checking to see if I can set up what I need with CD image files, which would maybe get me around the DOSBox issue. Meanwhile, I'm thinking that if I could only swap between two floppy images, I'd be all set.
