I don't know if it has been requested but can you add xcopy to dosbox? It's a little annoying running an install and having it crash because xcopy is not found.

I changed the POOL.CFG file to look like this: T T C:\POOLRAD\ C:\POOLRAD\ F The game doesn't lock up but still no sound. I guess there is no intro music.

DosBox runs but locks up when I start the game. No biggie, thanks anyway.
Forgotten Realms Pool of Radiance sound?
Posted on 2021-03-06, 23:03
I was browsing GOG forums and found a thread saying Pool of Radiance version 1.3 played music during the intro. The thread included instructions for setting up DosBox to use Tandy sound to play. I checked my version and it was 1.3 so I tried it. Here is my DosBox config: pcspeaker=false pcrate=44100 …
Re: Creating a batch file with more than 10 options
Posted on 2021-03-01, 15:51
A simple solution would be to limit the number of options on the menu page to 1 game less than the number allowed by the bat limit, have the limit number call another bat file to list the next list of games with the same option, Sort of like a menu calling another menu. Of course, if you are looking …

Re: Has anyone gotten imgmount to work in a shortcut?

I checked the manual, read up on the command option and tried it. Dosbox attempts the mount but gives me a "drive letter must be specified" message. This is the entry in the shortcut target: "C:\Program Files (x86)\DOSBox-0.74-3\DOSBox.exe" -c imgmount e "E:\ISOs\Menzoberranzan.iso" -t iso. There is …

I tried "C:\Program Files (x86)\DOSBox-0.74-3\DOSBox.exe" -imgmount e "C:\ISOs\Menzoberranzan.ISO" -t cdrom -fullscreen, fullscreen works but it is still not mounting. Are there any other options?

Has anyone gotten imgmount to work in a shortcut?
Posted on 2021-02-27, 22:07
I am creating desktop shortcut to my game and passing the options I need to run them through the shortcuts to avoid multiple configuration files. I was able to get two games running with no problem. The third game is an iso in a directory on my hard drive. The manual suggests imgmount so I tried the …

Thanks, that worked.
Re: Another custom config question
Posted on 2021-02-26, 12:29
That's what I thought. And to be sure, it should be -conf, not -userconf, correct?
Re: Another custom config question
Posted on 2021-02-26, 11:03
EDIT: I meant there is no space between -conf and the path to the config file. Should there be?
Re: Another custom config question
Posted on 2021-02-26, 11:02
I tried without a space between the dosbox and config paths but Windows tells me the path/file is invalid. I checked the dosbox shortcut to compare. The config parameter says "-userconf". should I be using that?
Another custom config question
Posted on 2021-02-26, 01:35
Using dosbox 0.74-3, I am pretty sure my problem is a simple typo but here goes. I am trying to create a custom config file for a game and run it from a desktop shortcut. I edited the autoexec section and ran it using the default icon and it worked. Here is the autoexec entry: [autoexec] # Lines in …
Basic question on imgmount
Posted on 2020-01-04, 21:52
I'm still playing with the configuration. I read in the manual one can load an image file and tried it. After a few pebcak errors, I got it to work. But I was wondering if DosBox supports many image types, *.iso, *.img, *.vhd, etc or just one?

I found this thread, https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=41127 which suggests a patch. I ran it but got a "translating savegame\items_00.txt to savegame\items_00.bin" message then the original message. I then reinstalled and repatched but got a "translating savegame\items_00.txt to savegame\ …
