If I wanted to move a game's config file to a new location without having to remove the game from DBGL and then re-add it I assume the only way is to edit the database.script file? What software would I need to do that (as daunting as it is at 806K)? The reason is that I have about 120 games (each …

A recent SVN build can be found at https://yesterplay.net/dosbox-ece-en/ (https://dosboxece.yesterplay.net/DOSBox%20r4227.7z). Also, don't worry with uninstalling 0.74, 0.74-2 will install perfectly fine alongside 0.74.

just a quick question - have you ever considered making dbgl a linux https://appimage.org/? Good idea, will probably do that after 0.90 gets released! The "Edit Profile" box doesn't save my changes when I hit Ok. When I edit the game, in the "Mounting" tab, the executable boxes are blank. Yeah, …

Well, that would also be valid I suppose, but I think my choice makes more sense because the files in the ~/.dbgl folder not only contains 'config'uration, but also the DOSBox 'dosroot' itself, potentially containing game data.

That is easy to answer; this behaviour is new for DBGL 0.90. I'm simply trying to make the Linux version behave like most other Linux applications do.

if i want to use DOSBox ECE inside of the new DBGL 0.90 - is there anything special to take care of or are both programs working together "out of the box"? Should be the same as for DBGL 0.82, see the website . Let me know if you experience any issues! Hey, one thing I think needs adding is when …

Hi people, First of all, thanks for your patience in regards to the lack of updates for DBGL these last months. As I've reported before, I wanted to rewrite part of the application in an effort to make it more robust and future-proof. I kept relatively radio-silent in this thread because I didn't …

TheGamesDB have radically changed their API, while Mobygames has switched to using HTTPS (port 443). I suspect these changes have broken this function in D-Fend (like they did DBGL). You may want to try to contact the D-Fend author or find someone to pick-up maintenance of the application.

Please use Java 8 for now, the current DBGL release is not compatible with versions 9 and up. I'm hard at work on a new DBGL release, but it will require some more time.
