Games that work well with DosBox: Index
 

I'm writing this because the original thread has grown quite a bit and has some offtopic posts, so it is hard to find a particular game. The games are ordered alphabetically and with a link to the post with additional info. For those without extra info I'll add some description.

If you find any errors, or a post with more info than the one here, please pm me what you found and I'll update.

There was an update in RubyBox, from inside RubyBox go to the menu and use the automatic update. Fixes a problem when importing game configurations. (/This is old)

That's it, I hope you find it useful.

Re: Games that work well with DosBox: Index
 

the rubybox repo isnt working... any help?

Re: Games that work well with DosBox: Index
 

Try these: http://pupnik.de/ruby.html

Re: Games that work well with DosBox: Index
 

wow, that was a fast replay, thank you.

I went into red pill and tried to install the two libraries but both give me the error I need libs 1.8 before I can install them. I;m probably missing something obvious here.

my main goal was to just manually edit the .conf files myself but I cant find them, where would I look in the file structure for the dosbox directory (im a pc guy and im trying to find somewhere to start with maemo :p)


EDIT***

Well I read through the entire thread and found the answer in the if your mouse stops working thread:

/usr/share/dosbox/dosbox.conf

So now the only thing I am missing is the command syntax to run the game from the xterm with a costom config file... you wouldnt happen to know that would you ?

Re: Games that work well with DosBox: Index
 

Something like:

dosboxbin -conf /usr/share/dosbox/dosbox.conf -conf /path/to/your/game.conf "/path/to/game/executable"

but instead of adding Maemo diablo/sdk to the Application manager, use Maemo Chinook instead.

Re: Games that work well with DosBox: Index

Re: Games that work well with DosBox: Index
 

updated.

it's a pity the post doesn't change it's date when you update. So this is just a "bump"

Re: Games that work well with DosBox: Index
 

Valeria,
great effort, many thanks, but maybe the content of the index should be migrated to wiki, so that other people can easily add to it?
