The command line works fine. Even when I use "-c cycles=500". If I use multiple, like so...
-c cycles=500 -c oplmode=none -c tandy=on
DOSBox messes up and doesn't run the game. Any info would be great.
Thanks!
What are you trying to do?

Trying to run and open game via command line. It works until I add those three -c commands. If I use just one, it is fine.
Try removing the oplmode command, it should work. It's not about having multiple commands, it's oplmode specifically.
well there is a limit to how many -c commands can be given.

How to ask questions the smart way!

Thank you!
Is there no command line for window resolution?

I don't know why this is happening but "oplmode" in particular seems to have issues. Even alone as a single command messes things up.

Sorry I have no clue, I don't use dosbox like this with commands. I played quickly with your command trying to see what's wrong with it only because you didn't have any better suggestions until then.
It works better if you create configs for the games and use those configs with Dosbox.

I tried redirecting the config link to one used in the game folder but must have been doing something wrong. As I didn't want to alter the original config. Any clue, via command line?
You don't need to use a full conf file. Just add the non default settings you want in a separate conf and DOSBox will use defaults for the rest. the main thing you will want is to use the [autoexec] section for game specifics like mounting.
