the e drive is my cd drive Yes, I understand that. But that dosn't mean you have to mount it as e. If you type mount d e:\ -t cdrom then your physical drive E:\ will be referred to as D:\ within DOSBox. You could also make an iso image of the disc and use it by typing, for example imgmount d "C:\ …

1) Use "mount d" instead of "mount e". 2) It sounds like you already mounted something as a cdrom. See that the the autoexec section in DOSBox Settings doesn't already have a mounting.

With mine the first letter is capitalized. See if "Al_cd_v110" makes a difference.

I've had Bloodwings since 1996 but didn't play it until last year after hearing how bad it is. I made maps for it. http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/564489-bloodwings- … ds-revenge/faqs

That's just to play it? You shouldn't have to install again. I don't see how that works since you would still be on Z: when you run install. Try this: Mount c c:\games Mount e e:\ -t cdrom C: cd games\shock SHOCK Also, you can do "Mount d e:\ -t cdrom" to make the actual E: drive recognized as D: …

Several games I started playing but lost interest in including: Homeworld 2 Independence War 2 Painkiller Revenant I used to make fixes to Planescape: Torment and handed off the project a few years ago when I started college.

That should work. I Mount C C:\DOS\GAMES, change to JETPACK, then launch JETPACK.EXE.

Norton Commander sounds like it would be a game. Maybe 5.5 is a lost episode like Commander Keen 3.5, Keen Dreams.
Re: dosbox can't find the file

Sounds like the path has changed from when it was installed. Maybe you mounted the game's own folder instead of a containing folder.
Re: Ancient DOS Games Webshow
Posted on 2011-01-01, 12:13
True, but with those games it's usually better to create a folder for them which you'll mount as the root, then allow the game itself to create its own directory structure within that root directory inside DOSBox. It's a little redundant, but it's preferrable to mounting one's entire folder worth …
Re: Ancient DOS Games Webshow

I see filler #4 is up. Several games expect to have a certain directory structure so I wouldn't mount the game's own folder as with Xargon and TV. Instead mount the directory that holds that folder, dosfiles. It may not make a difference to those games but in general the mounting should be the same …

Load a custom conf in your batch file and place the mounting command in the autoexec section. Or just use a frontend.
