Re: mapper or keyb problem?

Hm maybe start over, that is delete the mapper.txt and stick to usescancodes=true for the moment. After that test what -> and <- produce (type something in the dosbox window and hit those keys). Please post what happens (either nothing, or it moves the cursor).

Save games should be stored somewhere in the directory where you installed the game to. Assure that you really installed the game, and that all files in that target directory are accessible (no read-only attribute at some file).

Yes, nice image-guided tutorial. Another thing to mention is that the usecd parameter is zerobased, so if you have one cdrom (your case) you should use "-usecd 0" (if i don't mess up totally with this).

Re: Nine Lives CD Extra won't work in XP or DOSBox

As far as i understood this extra-stuff on the CD works on win95, but not on XP (maybe that can be extracted from the readme). If it works under win31 as well you could install win31 in dosbox (if you got a copy+license of it). If you have win95 (maybe win98/me would work, too) you can try some …

The -32 is 0xe0 (implicit conversion to unsigned), that is you're looking for the extended left key. In the mapper, there's a block with numbers where its top left has a NUM. 4 is left, 6 is right (depending on the state of numlock and the shifts/capslock they act as 4 or left). Thus remap those …

The mapper is there to swap physical keys. The problem comes in when you don't keep that in mind, that is you want to swap characters. This does not work, and never will. Games/dos progs work on the lowest level with key scancodes, so that's the level where stuff can be changed. Another level, much …
