First your guide helped me deal with installing proper Amiga through WinUAE, now you are helping me with DOS.. Thank you so much mate! Have a great New Year! Greetings from Mexico!
I hope gametoons do more billie bust up soon when the full game comes out soon
Welcome back, Mikey!
Could not get Descent 2 to work. I have GOG's copy, and Staging doesn't seem to recognize the image when I attempt to mount it. Any ideas?
How can I stretch the image to a 2560x1440 without borders? So that the whole monitor is filled up?
so i had to cringe every time you edited the conf file bc either youre supposed to create an entirely new file, rename the old, OR comment out the original code and insert a new line underneath with the value you you want. Definitely good practice to share on youtube with potential coding newbies. its good to teach the habits we want to see in the real world. great video!
Yeah the sad thing is Dosbox-x doesn’t need this. You can just have your main config then simply right click any folder, exe, com, or bat file and run it in DOSbox-x flawlessly. The guy that made these decisions for Staging really seems stubborn about his convoluted bullshit thinking it somehow is more standardized for beginners lol. I don’t get it
Don't know if you got the King's Quest Collection (from King's Quest 1 to King's Quest 7) and don't know if they can work on DOSBox Staging. I rebought the collection from Steam while I have a disc version of it too that I bought years ago but don't have a disc drive on my new computer and I know the King's Quest games are also available on GOG. I tried follow your steps to get the King's Quest games to work with DOSBox Staging but Steam got them, the whole collection installed with DOSBox 0.63 and 0.74-3 in an odd way.
lil problem. I installed it, but I can't type symbols to mount a drive
WB! And I always thought that Stardust was an Amiga exclusive.
I prefer using PCem to set up an MS-DOS Machine with a 486 CPU or a Pentium CPU, it behaves like an MS-DOS machine and it's compatible with all MS-DOS games however you need to optimize the memory for some games, in my opinion this is the definitive way to play MS-DOS games on a modern PC or Mac, the easiest way is DOSBox Pure in Retroarch as long as you have the game files it works perfectly and you can use CRT shaders too.
@@SxGaming3390everything he named is free? lol
Many-many tnx for this guide !
Is there anyway of running DOS games bought at GoG through DOSBox staging?
Yes, alot of them you can extract the files and then copy them to whatever your C drive in Dosbox is.
I can do a video demoing that.
Detailed list of what games do or don't can be found here.
