Re: DOSBox Game Launcher (DOSBox Frontend)

How is that Edit version => Edit configuration file using external editor supposed to work? I can bring up my DOSBox 0.72 located in C:\Program\DOSBox-0.72 and I see this long button 'Edit configuration file using external editor', but absolutely nothing happens when I click on it.

I don't see support for joysticktype=auto Edit profile -> I/O -> Joystick -> Type select 'auto'. It may be that the (earlier) associated DOSBox version didn't have that option. In that case, the joysticktype selectbox may be disabled. Just press 'Set' or 'Reload' next to the choosen DOSBox version …

Then I tried to clean up some of old DOSBox versions I had registered in the old database. But neither an old DOSBox 0.66rc3, nor the "Internal DOSBox CVS build, 2007-01-22" can be removed. I get an error from DBGL that says: Database query 'remove dosboxversion' failed What to do? It means that …

In the profiles listing, any chance of also showing the DOSBox version selected with the game? File -> Adjust Settings -> Profile Table -> check 'DB ID' Yes and no. It will show me the ID, e.g. '5', and then I have to look up that 5 in the version list to see that 5 = DOSBox 0.72. I would have …

A lot of things could be wrong. Adding guesswork into the mess just makes it harder for everyone to help you. Give us the actually IP-addresses and port numbers you are using and we MIGHT be able to help.

My old install of DBGL suddenly refused to launch. Tried different things - nothing worked. dbglcons might have given some more information about the problem (stacktrace). I didn't use dbglcons specifically, but I did try to launch DBLG by hand from a CMD-prompt using just 'java -blah -blah -blah'. …

Not even on lines 567-643? Maybe I am a really lucky guy, with a special readme that mentions those commands? Or maybe I just know how to read? 567 IMGMOUNT 568 A utility to mount disk images and CD-ROM images in DOSBox. 569 570 IMGMOUNT DRIVE [imagefile] -t [image_type] -fs [image_format] 571 -size …

If you need to now what the current time is, you could do something like: Copy code to clipboard 1 C:\>echo > date.now 2 C:\>dir date.now Note: This will not give you DOSBox's internal date - it will be the date/time of the underlying (real) operating system.

You really should upgrade to 0.72 You can start DOSBox with a -conf option to select a specific configuration file: Copy code to clipboard 1 dosbox -conf ~/classics/lemmings/dosbox.conf \ 2 ~/classics/lemmings/vgalemmi.exe You can also try one of the excellent frontends like DBGL.

Installing and running Wing Command III is something of a hack with this (and any other frontend?). I have 4 CD-images with the game files on my physical G-drive. Since I need to swap between them, I prefer to mount them using the IMGMOUNT command. But I also want to avoid hitting the max-length on …

Anyway (except hacking the database) to change the name of a configuration file? I have a game that didn't work well with 0.65, only with 0.63rc3. While testing, I named the 0.65 profile "MotorCity065.conf". Now, with 0.72 everything is working fine, so I would like to get rid of the 065 in the …
