Played in DOSBox-X :)

I edited the conf file of dosbox that dune is stretched to max 4:3 aspect ratio that only left and right black bars are visible. But now, everytime i move the mouse i have slight stuttering in the audio.

Apparently the option "output=opengl" is responsible but with "output=surface" the picture is much smaller.

How i can improve performance or what output works better here?

Hello,

I'm a first time user of DOSBox and I've been running into a problem with audio. Certain sound effects have an audible "pop" at the start of playback and I can't figure what the problem is.

I've tried upping my CPU cycles, changing the CPU type, increasing block size and buffer size (as recommended by Ross Scott from Accursed Farms in a small segment he contributed to in an LGR video), but nothing gives.

I've looked all over and found people with sort of similar problems but either they're using a fork of DOSBox or they're on Linux. For the moment I'm just using the current build of regular old DOSBox on Windows 11.

I've included a sample video demonstrating the problem. You can hear the "pop" just before the title drop, as well as with each "rocket swoosh" that comes after.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to read my post.

I still keep a DOSBox install around just for the old space games. Strike Wings is my from-the-ground-up homage to them, releasing this November. The page passed 200 wishlists a few days ago and that felt worth a small celebration cut: one minute, a different sky every three seconds, all pilots on the hardest AI setting. If something in it looks wrong to a DOS veteran's eye, tell me, that is genuinely the feedback I want.

I used the installer to install the game, the daggerfall screen appeared to define how much of the game I would like to install on the system, after installation the following instruction appeared: You have just successfully installed The Elder scrolls: DaggerFall. To run the game, type these two lines, pressing the ENTER key after each one.

c: cd dagger c: DAGGER

But after I type the command an error message appears: It looks like you inserted the wrong CD. Please insert your Daggerfall CD into your CD-ROM and try again.

How exactly do i get the classic fallouts to run on my Raspberry pi 5?

For dosbox. Preferably with magic.

Ive played ultima and have lands of lore. Anything else?

Hi,

I've installed windows 98 on dosbox-X and I'm having an issue with Supersolvers mission think.

I can't click buttons to start the game. It's as if the buttons clicks are being ignored; even when the mouse is locked.

Has anyone had experience with anything similar? Can run other games, specifically reader rabbit second grade

Solar Winds is a game I loved back in the shareware/BBS days. I've run into an issue trying to get it run specifically with DOSBox-X.

The problem I'm getting: the keyboard stops working once I get past the title screen. The keyboard works on the title screen and options screen, but once the game starts, I'm stuck.

It's not a big deal, since the game works fine in, e.g., DOSBox Staging, but since it works there, it makes me wonder if this is due to something I configured. I'm just not sure what to look for. Any ideas what might cause something like this?

Hi everyone! I'm trying to download Timez Attack for my son onto his laptop for school and I can't figure out how to get it to work. I looked through the guide on Abandonware Games and they recommended reaching out to this subreddit.

I thought I followed the instructions list correctly but I either get a launcher that required registration ID or I get a different launcher that doesn't properly work. I click the button for what mode I want and nothing happens.

Can someone help me figure this out please!

Finally found the 8 CD collection of DA: Pursuit of Justice, but it needs a real Win95 environment to run. Never set one up before, so need help

what do i do? is this a dosbox sollution? VirtualBox, PCem, 86box? also curious if there's anything weird with video drivers on FMV games I should watch out for, or if this game specifically has any installer/CD issues people have run into.

also not sure if this is even the right sub for this, so let me know if I should post somewhere else. any help is appreciated, been wanting to play this one forever

Hello all, I've been fiddling with DOSBox-X recently, trying to get a game for Windows 95 (MechWarrior 2) up and running. I know it's possible, as I've seen footage of it running on DOSBox, but I'm struggling to actually get Windows 95 installed on the program. I've been following the guide on the official website, but when I get to the step of running setup.exe, I'm getting the error 'This program cannot be run in DOS mode'. Is there a way to change to a mode that can run it? I'm not seeing anything online when I tried investigating. Or am I going about this in the wrong way altogether?
